Short and sweet stab at a Skiff

Saturday, September 28th, 2013

An extra signature in the home system doesn't give me anywhere to go, it's just gas. It makes for a simple start to the evening, though, with no intruders or choices of direction to go. I simply resolve our static wormhole and jump to the neighbouring class 3 w-space system. ...

Scanning only takes me so far

Wednesday, September 18th, 2013

Do a couple of new signatures in the home system imply I have company? Maybe, as they are both incoming wormholes, one from class 3 w-space and one from class 5 w-space. I don't see many C3 K162s in our system, and is it may well lead to a dead ...

Just poking around

Monday, September 16th, 2013

It's just the static wormhole that's new at home, and our neighbouring class 3 w-space system doesn't seem much more appealing, not with only a tower and shuttle visible on my directional scanner. I initiate warp to a distant planet so that I can launch probes only to see a ...

Wasting time with rejected relics

Wednesday, September 4th, 2013

It's been a few days, but I'm back in space and excited to be here. Old sites have died, and my blank slate of a start coalesces in to a fairly standard beginning of resolving a gas site and our static wormhole, jumping to the neighbouring class 3 w-space system ...

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? ...

Hitting it big with a Heron

Sunday, August 4th, 2013

Pilots or rats, either works for me. No extra signatures in the home system pushes me through our static wormhole to the neighbouring class 3 w-space system, where I see ships. Ships on my directional scanner, but ships all the same. A Nemesis stealth bomber is neither here nor there, ...

Making easy iskies from explosions

Monday, July 29th, 2013

There's a Retriever visible in the home system. Kill, kill! Oh, the mining barge's name looks familiar, and Aii's on-line. My Sherlockian skills lead me to deduce it is my colleague mining, and not an intruder. That, and Aii greeting me and asking for another few minutes to chomp on ...

No surprises

Monday, July 15th, 2013

I can't see what the C2 pilots are up to any more, so I've taken a bit of a gamble. Their class 2 w-space system connects directly to the same class 3 system our static wormhole leads us to, and I've been watching them swap ships back and forth for ...

Preparing for an ambush

Sunday, July 14th, 2013

I'm back in w-space for more abuse. I won't find any in the new pocket of gas at home, except for self-abuse, so I resolve our static wormhole and jump through to the neighbouring class 3 w-space system. Core probes appear on my directional scanner in C3a, but that's it. ...
