Stacking up the stealth bombers

Saturday, April 14th, 2012

Maybe today I'll go out exploring. Yesterday's static wormhole was already in its death throes the first time I warped to it, stopping me in my tracks. Although it collapsed whilst Fin and I were Sleepering, ostensibly creating a new wormhole in its place waiting to be found today, the ...

Tengu versus Imicus

Monday, August 1st, 2011

The fleet returns home from the Prophecy debacle, where its thin-as-a-rake hull evaporates before we can get a heavy interdictor on top of it. We travel at different speeds, though. The combat ships head directly back, warping wormhole-to-wormhole, whereas the more stealthy amongst us dawdle to look for further activity, ...

A tale of two Tengus

Friday, July 8th, 2011

My first day back out in high-sec empire space will be simple enough. Glorious leader Fin has a level 4 agent sitting out in Caldari space somewhere who she wants to introduce me to, which will involve flying shared missions for a while, so I need to move my PvE ...

Tengu exploration

Tuesday, June 28th, 2011

I want to get back to exploring. Running missions isn't rewarding for me, and not just in terms of ISK. I could get myself a new Buzzard covert operations boat to scan with whilst taking a break in high-sec empire space, but there are logistic problems when using stations. Docking ...

Hitting high-sec

Monday, June 27th, 2011

Empire space, day one. High-sec is all mine! I have no idea what to do. I have an ancient Drake battlecruiser in this hangar, fitted with basic components and even some passive hardeners, but I am far from familiar agents. This Drake and location were from an earlier temporary reprieve ...

Third time will be a charm

Monday, May 9th, 2011

I have some time on my hands, I think I'll take an early look around our w-space constellation. Finding our static wormhole is easy enough, and jumping to our neighbouring class 3 system sees a couple of ships and a couple of towers on my directional scanner. My notes also ...

Pimping my Golem

Monday, April 18th, 2011

Hello wormhole, my only friend. No one is home when I wake up so I scan the system to find our static connection and see where it takes me today. I jump in to our neighbouring class 3 w-space system to a clear directional scanner, with just the one planet ...

A night of logistics

Thursday, April 14th, 2011

The wormhole I've resolved seems awfully fat as a signature. I suspect it to be a K162, as wormhole exits tend to be easier to detect than entrances, but I can't see any other connections in our home w-space system. As I scan Fin turns up, which lets me warp ...

Close to a Widow

Wednesday, March 9th, 2011

A new day brings new wormholes to find, hopefully without the raucous neighbours this time. Or maybe we will have unruly company, as the first wormhole I resolve in our home system is a K162 coming from class 5 w-space. Thankfully, though, the wormhole is critically unstable, already having had ...

Cool your boots

Monday, December 20th, 2010

A little over a day's worth of coolant won't last long. A little over day, I'd estimate. And without coolant the tower's force field will de-activate, which won't be good for anyone, except passing pirates. The sinking inevitability of finding an exit to low-sec space in our neighbouring class 3 ...
