Taking the scenic route home

Thursday, October 14th, 2010

The atmosphere at the tower is pricked by the scent of blood. A new wormhole connects to us from a class 2 w-space system and our scout finds a Cormorant destroyer salvaging on the other side. There are also a few Drake battlecruisers creating the Sleeper wrecks to be salvaged, ...

A chain of dangerous space

Wednesday, October 13th, 2010

The unknown awaits. A single bookmark in the shared can indicates our home system's static wormhole has been found but nothing else. I point my Buzzard covert operations boat towards the fresh connection and head out to explore today's w-space constellation. The wormhole needs time to stabilise as I move ...

Claiming a Covetor's crokite

Tuesday, October 12th, 2010

The corporation is giving the wormhole a little push. It already looks quite wobbly but we'd rather it collapse now to give us new w-space systems to explore. I am doing my bit to help, by sitting cloaked at a distance. Collapsing wormholes fascinates me like a fiery ship explosion; ...

Scanning the Orca home

Monday, October 11th, 2010

Empty systems often lead to uninteresting times, but we probably didn't need to lose an Orca to make the evening more exciting. Collapsing our static wormhole to look for a better w-space constellation goes slightly awry when our industrial command ship exits and drags the wormhole with it. The pilot ...

Wrecking a Rook

Sunday, October 10th, 2010

There are bookmarks in the can, so I don't need to scan. I'll take my Manticore stealth bomber out for a roam, and with a few sites also bookmarked along with wormholes I may be able to cause some trouble. Our home system's static wormhole is as healthy as wormholes ...

Unseen observations

Saturday, October 9th, 2010

Colleagues are baiting capsuleers mourning the loss of an Orca industrial command ship, but I have some Russians to check on. A fork in w-space led me through a K162 wormhole to a system holding three towers and, as I was leaving to join the action elsewhere, three piloted Drake ...

Planet goo piracy

Friday, October 8th, 2010

An invitation to explore is returned with our scout, bookmarks for today's w-space constellation connections copied to our shared can. I make my own copies of the bookmarks and warp to our static wormhole in my Buzzard. Not all connections and systems have been mapped, so I am expecting to ...

Countdown to destruction

Thursday, October 7th, 2010

I recognise the bookmarks in the can as yesterday's. The static wormhole should be gone by now, which means I need to scan the new one. Only having one signature in the home system makes resolving the wormhole rather easy and I am soon in our neighbouring class 4 w-space ...

Four systems, one pilot

Wednesday, October 6th, 2010

Sleepers are exploding in our home system. I consider roaming our w-space constellation for targets instead of joining the corporation fleet to make some iskies but I can't make head nor tail of the bookmarks currently in the shared can, so I launch my Tengu stratetic cruiser and warp in ...

Causing ripples in null-sec

Tuesday, October 5th, 2010

There are two ways out of our system but only one is viable. Our static wormhole is reaching the end of its lifetime and isn't worth travelling through, so it's convenient to have an incoming connection from a class 3 w-space system. I am told there is a tower in ...
