Not trusting a truce

Friday, November 11th, 2011

I'm back and keen to know what's happening. Glorious leader Fin is here, which is good, but she's unresponsive, which isn't as good. Whilst I wait to get a response I warp across to our home system's static wormhole and jump in to our neighbouring class 3 w-space system, looking ...

Scanning and selling stolen Sleeper loot

Thursday, November 10th, 2011

I'm only planning on a quick poke around w-space tonight, but I don't even leave the home system. Fin's around and has finished her training in black ops ships to give us more Widow powers, and she pootles around in one of the two we have in our hangar. It ...

Profiting from other's efforts

Wednesday, November 9th, 2011

Intruder alert, intruder alert! I wake up on the outskirts of our home w-space system as is usual, cloaking immediately in my covert Tengu strategic cruiser, and all looks normal. I launch scanning probes, throw them out of the system, and warp to a spot within directional scanner range of ...

Adding insult to injury

Tuesday, November 8th, 2011

There is still an unfinished anomaly in our neighbouring class 3 w-space system. Glorious leader Fin and I didn't start it, but I happened to interrupt the combat, albeit indirectly. I managed to locate their Noctis salvager and steal the loot that survived its explosive end, causing the rest of ...

A cloaked ship is not a safe ship

Monday, November 7th, 2011

This is more like it. Combat ships, drones, and wrecks, all on my directional scanner. There are industrial ships and a tower as well, but who cares. A little w-space constellation spread out from a hub of a class 3 system connects in to our home system today, which has ...

Music of 2011, part three

Sunday, November 6th, 2011

After my previous collection of new music I felt a bit disappointed, and perhaps a little downhearted about my continuing search for good music. As it turns out, there is still plenty to be discovered, as long as I look in the right places. My third collection of mini-reviews of ...

A bevy of systems behind us

Saturday, November 5th, 2011

The home system looks quiet again. So much time alone at the moment, it could drive a person to space madness. I'd better find some company, maybe bring back a fresh corpse for another tea party. Scanning finds a second signature today as well, and it's not more gas but ...

A distinct lack of shooting

Friday, November 4th, 2011

I've had my sammich, now let's see if the w-space constellation is as full as my belly. All is clear in the home system so, after my earlier exploration, I'll take my Manticore stealth bomber out for a roam. It's more agile, harder hitting, and quicker locking than my covert ...

Starting with scanning, selling, and stocking

Thursday, November 3rd, 2011

I'm out for some early reconnaissance, looking to map the w-space constellation before others wake up and blithely warp around in haulers made of little more than tinfoil. It's interesting to find a second wormhole in the home system today, until I warp to it and see it is merely ...

Late-night movements

Wednesday, November 2nd, 2011

I am about to warp homewards when I spot core scanning probes on my directional scanner. I've missed getting a good shot at a replacement salvager being brought back from empire space, because of a lapse of reasoning perhaps because of tiredness, but my curiosity remains. I hold on the ...
