It is late and the system is quiet. I am thinking of resting for the night, but our stranded pilot asks nicely of no one in particular if a little time could be spent scanning. I am rather addicted to piloting spaceships and agree to help.
I find our ...

The local systems have been reconnoitred. There is little of interest for us in neighbouring systems except perhaps in the class 2 system, but the connecting wormhole is reaching the end of its life. The only other connection heads in to a class 5 system inhabited by potential ...

I am almost elite. I have nearly all of my core competency skills trained to the highest required level, missing only two more before I can claim the overall certificate. The training has taken a while, although my last plan to increase core skill training being over a ...

W-space is mine to explore. I quickly find the static wormhole in our own system and jump in to the C4 on the other side. The neighbouring system holds no surprises, being unoccupied and mostly empty, the outer planet keeping a close eye on the system's static wormhole. ...

Any help is appreciated, and I have a bookmark for the home system's static wormhole waiting for me. It's an invitation to jump through and explore today's local systems. Next door is a big system, big enough to encourage me to scan each planet's space individually, rather than ...

It's time to roam. Earlier scanning has a route to high-sec mapped, and with a couple of occupied systems on the way there may be a target or two to find. First I need to choose my ship. I only scanned for wormholes and located towers earlier, ...

Another early start to scanning. This time, instead of one of pilots getting isolated on the wrong side of a collapsed wormhole, our scan man got in to trouble and woke up in a new clone in empire space. We need a route to get him home. ...

Sleepers cleared and profit made, there may be time for a quick roam. Our scan man heads out in his Cheetah, now with an added gun, to reconnoitre our local w-space systems of the day. Nothing particularly promising presents itself, but a Buzzard is seen. We set ...

The threat of the Buzzard is gone. I think it's safe to say we can clear some sites of specific Sleeper interest without being interrupted by his corporation. The fleet of hunting ships is stored in a hangar and battleships and Guardians brought out instead. Warping and ...

Our scan man is out scanning, assessing potential threats before we consider clearing some sites of specific Sleeper interest. Today's neighbouring system is unoccupied, which is a good start, but the next system along has a tower with a Moa and Buzzard inside its shields. We will need ...
