That Drake isn't looking for me. When I saw the battlecruiser on my directional scanner I thought it was a reaction to my chasing a Helios covert operations boat, who used a lazily predictable position to launch scanning probes. But Sleeper wrecks are slowly starting to appear, placing the ship ...

Glorious leader Fin is on her way to Jita, flying on autopilot, to collect and assemble newly delivered Legion strategic cruiser subsystems. She interrupts her relaxation to briefly update me, saying there are no new wormholes in our neighbouring class 3 w-space system and that the Helios covert operations boat ...

The home system is nicely sparse now. All our mining sites have been cleared the efficient way, by activating and forgetting about them, leaving only anomalies and a handful of radar sites. This makes wormholes remarkably easy to find, and new mining sites can be activated on discovery to keep ...

So much for my not expecting to find anything. Mick takes a better look around the class 5 system in today's w-space constellation and gets a second interesting signature, a K162 coming in from deadly class 6 w-space. He saw a Broadsword heavy interdictor sitting on the wormhole but it's ...

Fin's coming home. After being caught on the wrong side of a collapsing wormhole, being guided through some null-sec space, and settling in a class 5 w-space system for a night, there now exists a relatively safe path to bring our glorious leader back to our class 4 pulsar home. ...

From home, to class 3 w-space, to low-sec empire space. The current constellation is mapped and bookmarks are available, which I copy and head out to check for any activity and maybe new connections. Jumping in to our neighbouring system sees someone definitely around, as there is a pod visible ...

I'm so proud. I spot the wormhole's signature out of the dozen or so littering our inner system, recognising the strength and positioning of the two split signals. A brief search finds no more likely looking signatures and I warp to the static connection, jumping through to our neighbouring class ...

Glorious leader Fin's trying to clear some gas, so I think it's best I leave the system for a bit. The static wormhole is easy to find, perhaps a bug surfacing in the Sleepers' technology causing it to appear in the same place as yesterday, and I jump in to ...

There's a Badger hauler on my directional scanner, which I suspect is collecting planet goo. I won't chase it, though, as it is only glorious leader Fin making the rounds in our home system. But it means there has been no scanning done yet, our bookmark can lying empty, so ...

The w-space constellation's already been mapped, I think I'll take my stealth bomber out for a spin. I board my Manticore, copy the bookmarks to my nav-comp, and set off towards the static wormhole. Jumping in to our neighbouring class 3 system returns me to a system I have visited ...
