I get my fearsome new Onyx to the corporation tower in w-space safely. It's a few hours after the bumbling ambush attempt and the wormhole route between our home system and high-sec space is clear. My Crane is left back at my manufacturing base, to be picked up ...

Whilst people are out scanning, I keep myself amused by wondering if I have found a bug or a feature. Taking my Manticore stealth bomber out for a spin, in case there happened to be vulnerable miners to harry, I warp cloaked back in to the tower's shields.
Taking care ...

Other people scanning is the sort of activity I can get behind. I am at the tower as two other capsuleers are looking for sites of specific Sleeper interest, or an exit to New Eden. One chap is searching for a rich gravimetric site which he hopes to ...

Another day of scanning. Without enough colleagues to engage Sleepers there is little else to do in w-space. I wouldn't mind the lack of w-space activity so much if it didn't take so long to scan an exit back to New Eden that I then can rarely take ...

Scanning today is a team effort. It's helpful for each signature to have its own six-digit reference, common for anyone probing the system, as it allows the task of scanning to be split amongst more than one capsuleer. A signature is formed by three letters, a dash, and ...

My colleague and I make a concerted effort to find an exit to New Eden today. Fin is outside of w-space and we need to get her back in, with a new ship or two. I hop in to a Buzzard and get ready to locate some wormholes. ...

Alone at the tower means more scanning. Maybe we should invent a technology for more reliable passageway through w-space, perhaps some kind of 'gate' that links two star systems together. Until this marvellous new invention becomes a reality, I borrow the Buzzard again to try to find a ...

Another day to scan. Ignoring the anomalies in our home system reveals the latest wormhole quickly enough, and I jump through in my borrowed Imicus. A quick check of the directional-scanner is always prudent when entering a new system, although I'm not quite sure if I should do ...

Ooh, this is exciting. Investigating a magnetometric site in w-space, our engineering fleet reveals not only the usual Sleepers and abandoned artefacts but, off in the distance, a deserted Talocan cruiser hull! The thrill of finding something so unusual almost makes me forget to question how the artefacts ...

In our rich little w-space system another radar site crops up on the scanner, waiting to be plundered. Again, a host of Sleeper ships are alert enough turn up to attack, showing that we really ought to have thought of a better name to give them. Even facing ...
