I return to our neighbouring class 3 w-space system in my Manticore stealth bomber, looking for trouble. Two pilots sit inside the shields of the tower in the system, one in an Iteron hauler, the other in a Megathron battleship, but the Megathron isn't there for long. Just as I ...

I have a wormhole to find. I pop and pod a Catalyst destroyer salvaging an anomaly before seeing a newly arrived Drake warp out of one of the local towers, and I have no idea where he went. I make the one wormhole-jump home to swap in to my Buzzard ...

Glorious leader Fin arrives, and I update her on my mischief. A K162 wormhole has opened in to our system, and I chased a scout in my Malediction interceptor, shooting the shields off his Helios covert operations boat for giggles. A bit of manoeuvring has now seen a Manticore stealth ...

I have a new Harpy. Well, the assault ship is nearly mine, and only nearly new too, I suppose. I can overlook the scorch marks on the armour where the VIN used to be and the rest of the damage will buff out. But I'm getting ahead ...

W-space is not much explored today. Only the static wormhole has a bookmark copied to our shared can. But both sides of the wormhole are bookmarked, indicating the wormhole is active. Maybe we have corporation miners in the neighbouring system. I head out to take a ...

A new day means a new wormhole to find. I am hoping my early scanning will catch some capusleers being rather more cavalier about their attitudes to the directional scanner than in busier periods. But most of the time early scanning only results in empty w-space systems until ...

Knowing the static wormhole is being collapsed makes it easy to find the new one. I launch probes from my Buzzard covert operations boat and perform a scan of the entire system prior to the wormhole's implosion, ignoring every result. Once the wormhole collapses I repeat my scan, ...

'I'm looking at a Covetor mining.' What beautiful words. They make me want to jump in my Onyx heavy interdictor and blow the crap out of the mining barge and pod the pilot. But I am getting ahead of myself and have to store the HIC and ...

An alliance member needs to be guided out of w-space. Taking him along the route gives me a chance to passively scout our neighbourhood a little. I warp the pair of us between wormholes, waiting for him to bookmark them for his return journey, and keep an eye ...

Going back through the short but occupied route I check to see if anyone else has woken up yet. The class 4 w-space system adjacent to us is still quiet, but the class 3 further along has a Buzzard in the system. The covert operations boat is not ...
