The evening starts promisingly. There are lots of bookmarks waiting in the can, tempting me to go roaming in my Manticore stealth bomber again. But warping to our static wormhole reveals that the bookmarks are a day stale, so instead I swap in to my Buzzard scanning boat ...

As others have done, please allow me to share with you the ships I have put in the communal hangar in w-space, and like to call my own.
Drake—Non-sentient Ship
The passive shield tanked battlecruiser has been my staple combat ship for longer than I can remember. As soon as I ...

It doesn't look like there will be an Azerothian adventure tonight. The two of us available remove our leather britches and don thrilling space trousers and head in to New Eden. Or, at least, some region of w-space possibly connected tenuously with New Eden. We arrive at ...

A mining barge sometimes isn't enough, particularly a mining barge used as bait. With Sleeper destruction wrapped up for the evening I visit our connected w-space systems to look for any activity. Nothing in our neighbouring system's tower has changed, and four more systems across the wreck of ...

A Retriever mining barge has been spotted. It is in a medium bubble and obviously bait, but the possibility of heading in to a trap hasn't stopped me taking a look before. Some colleagues are pondering bumping the Retriever out of the bubble, perhaps to recover it, I'm ...

I turn up to the familiar operation of trying to return a colleague home. Our scan man found himself on the wrong side of our static wormhole as we collapsed it, and piloted himself out to empire space. Now we are to get him back. I don't ...

After killing five miners in our neighbouring w-space system, and their hauler, it is decided to collapse our connecting wormhole. Personally, I don't really think our neighbours pose any serious threat, partly because we have just sent six of them back to empire space without ships, and partly because ...

Five jumps out, our static wormhole collapses. The podded pilot we were hoping to get back in to w-space has made a dozen jumps for naught, the wormhole in high-sec space she was heading for now leading to a dead-end. Quite why our static wormhole chooses this time ...

Scanning is complete before I even turn up. The bookmarks of all wormholes and exits are sitting in our can ready to be copied. I am even told that there is nothing of interest in the systems, as they are clear of sites and targets. My Manticore ...

I turn up to find a couple of corporation Rifters duelling. It's all fun and games until someone loses a frigate, and one pilot inevitably isn't able to switch off his guns in time. Oh well, it's another notch on our new kill-board, and in both the kills ...
