It's back to scanning for me. There are no bookmarks available in our shared can, which means I need to get in my Buzzard covert operations boat to find the current w-space connections. Scanning resolves our new static wormhole and jumping through gives an unlikely occasion, as I ...

There is some activity on my way home. I am returning from my scanning exploration that led me to an exit from w-space to low-sec space when I note a change of ships in the class 4 system along my route. The pilot of the Iteron Mark III ...

There are bookmarks waiting in the can again. I copy them to my nav-comp and go out exploring what has already been found. My retracing of steps is surprisingly quick, because the incoming connection from a class 2 w-space system is now at the end of its natural ...

There are some bookmarks dropped in the can, begging me to take them and go roaming in my stealth bomber. I launch the Manticore, ensure I have a suitable configuration loaded to pick on the weak and defenceless, and head out. A call went out earlier to try ...

Skill training progresses. I don't really have a training plan to speak of, and although I have tentative ideas of which ships I'd like to pilot I'm not entirely convinced of their overall utility in w-space operations. However, there are plenty of support and secondary skills that are ...

Our wormhole is dying. But that's okay, we'll just get a new one. Each static wormhole in our system lasts for about sixteen hours and, with good intelligence on when the last one was opened, I warp out to the connection to watch it collapse. Before the ...

W-space is well-connected again today. There are plenty of bookmarks to copy in to my nav-comp, which means I can leave behind my Buzzard scanning boat and head out to roam in my Manticore stealth bomber instead. I warp to our home system's static wormhole and jump through ...

W-space beckons me again. I take my collection of bookmarks to wormholes and wander around the neighbourhood to see what's happening. The local cluster seems relatively quiet, including a system I overlooked earlier in the veritable constellation of w-space systems all connecting in to each other today. ...

The system looks quiet when I arrive. Opening the bookmarks can brings a surprise, though, as twenty-seven references to current wormholes reveal themselves to me. I copy them all to my nav-comp, trying to be patient as the kludgy bookmark system slowly copies individual slices of data, and ...

We only have two systems to explore currently, I am told. Our static connection leads in to a class 4 system as usual, but that system's static wormhole is at the end of its natural life and prevents us looking further afield for action or an exit. I ...
