We could use some fuel and fittings. We tend to run out of the first quite regularly, almost on a schedule, and shortage of the second only let themselves be known right before we want to use them. It's difficult keeping a fully stocked hangar of modules for all eventualities ...

Fin's out and about, exploring w-space and destabilising wormholes. An return Orca passage hauling ore out to empire space and bringing fuel back in takes its toll on our static connection, the industrial command ship massive enough to make a dent by itself. And with a fleet now active in ...

Our neighbours are alerted to our presence. Podding their salvager in their home system will do that, I suppose. Our hopes to simultaneously strike an analysing boat in a magnetometric site don't quite go according to plan, at least for us, when a Vagabond cruiser interferes with the coordinated bombing ...

Our neighbouring class 3 w-space system was quiet earlier, but there is promise. A scanner showed some signs of activity, albeit not much more than being vaguely conscious, and we have successfully engaged the occupying corporation on a couple of previous occasions. I take my Manticore stealth bomber in to ...

A new day brings new wormholes to find, hopefully without the raucous neighbours this time. Or maybe we will have unruly company, as the first wormhole I resolve in our home system is a K162 coming from class 5 w-space. Thankfully, though, the wormhole is critically unstable, already having had ...

Scary ships greet me when I jump in to our neighbouring class 3 w-space system. Thankfully not directly, but my directional scanner shows a Broadsword heavy interdictor, Muninn heavy assault ship, Kitsune electronic attack ship, and some other equally threatening ships. I am not sure what the others were only ...

Even though the two systems I've travelled through are quiet there is still one more to explore, not yet having jumped through the K162 to the class 5 system. I get my Buzzard covert operations boat out again to take a look. Only one planet is visible on my directional ...

There are two wormholes at home today. The first is super-easy to find, almost ensuring it's not our static connection, and I see that it is a K162 coming from a class 5 w-space system. I keep scanning until I resolve our static wormhole, which thankfully is also rather easy ...

It's just me at the moment, me and a bookmark. A rather familiar-looking bookmark, I have to admit, and I realise that it points to our static wormhole from yesterday, a wormhole that must have collapsed by now. I delete the old reference and go scanning anew, happy to see ...

No scanning for me today. Glorious leader Fin got here before me and has taken on the task herself, already in our neighbouring class 3 w-space system and eyeing up prospective targets. There is even copied in to our shared can a bookmark that points to today's static wormhole, so ...
