Escape through null-sec

Saturday, August 31st, 2013

I'm waiting near a wormhole. I may be polarised, but I haven't checked yet. I've been more concerned with evading a couple of assault frigates, who worryingly seem to be more than a match for my strategic cruiser. But at least I have a cloaking device. I can watch from ...

Strange behaviour

Friday, August 30th, 2013

What's shaking in the constellation? Well, the K162 from class 4 w-space has mysteriously disappeared from our system, perhaps having something to do with my popping and podding a pilot from there for having the temerity to try to haul planet goo safely through our home. That's okay really, as ...

Settling for a bit of high-sec

Thursday, August 29th, 2013

I doubt there is much more to see for the moment. I'm supposing that as the occupants of the class 4 w-space system connecting in to us were hauling planet goo through our home then our own neighbouring class 3 system is quiet. It's best to check, though. Besides, a ...

Bringing home the planet goo

Wednesday, August 28th, 2013

I'll aim for less scanning and more explosions today. That doesn't sound too hard, does it? Space may even agree with me, sending a second signature in to the home system for me to resolve as a second wormhole, a K162 from class 4 w-space. There could even be a ...

Should have gone to null-sec

Tuesday, August 27th, 2013

I have time to pop a planet gooer. The only problem is that I have to find one first, and I'm not sure I have enough time to do that. But I'll try. Two extra signatures in the home system are just mapped gas sites, so I point my cloaky ...

Towers are tough

Monday, August 26th, 2013

It's still just me and the static wormhole in our home system. Sweet peace and quiet. I'm bored. I resolve the connection and jump to the neighbouring class 3 w-space system, looking for some entertainment. And although I see a couple of ships and two flights of drones on my ...

Having a second crack on a high-sec wormhole

Sunday, August 25th, 2013

A quick check of the constellation on my return is disappointing. I had hoped that the dying static wormhole to class 1 w-space would be replaced by something fresh, only to turn up at the connection to the class 4 system holding it to see that wormhole now in its ...

Crossing Aridia

Saturday, August 24th, 2013

I have time for a short poke around the constellation. If I'm lucky, there will be a planet gooer in our neighbouring system which I can pop and come straight back home, satisfied with a brief stint in space. But what are the odds? Home looks bare, and I'm relying ...

Names are confusing, ship and pilot

Friday, August 23rd, 2013

Gas has floated out of the home system to be replaced by what I assume are new and almost entirely similar pockets of gas. But assumptions are about as reliable as a Gallente's word, and one of the signatures resolves to be a second wormhole. Where does it come from? ...

Entertained by an over-reaction

Thursday, August 22nd, 2013

With any luck there will be a w-spacer or two out tonight. There's me, for a start, but I can't shoot myself, so I resolve our static wormhole and jump to the neighbouring class 3 system. My directional scanner tells me my princess is in another castle, with a tower ...
