Played by the market
Tuesday, August 18th, 2009When looking for materials for my manufacturing runs I have previously found a stash of minerals for sale at a bargain price, whereupon I snap up the entire stock, take what I need to use, and sell the surplass back on the market at a marked-up price. This gets ...
Back in the pocket
Friday, August 14th, 2009Operations continue in the w-space system we have declared our own, undeterred by occasional losses, even if they are unsettling. It is all a learning experience and as long as we continue to adapt we will be successful and profitable in the rich w-space environment. Despite the loss ...
Armoured warfare specialist Ibramovic
Thursday, August 13th, 2009Not half-an-hour after finding the improved passive shield set-up for my Drake do I complete skill training in armoured warfare specialist I, having achieved armoured warfare V a little earlier, and I am ready to fit my first warfare link module to boost the corporation's battleships in w-space. It's ...
Hardening my Drake's passive tank
Tuesday, August 11th, 2009I am back out in high-sec known-space again and I get to try out one or two more fittings for my battlecruiser, trying to improve my current passive set-up. After I complete my previous look at Drake fittings it is only when I'm a few jumps in to my ...
A shock to the system
Monday, August 10th, 2009It's quiet in the w-space system. Too quiet. But then another engineer turns up at the tower and we decide to strike hard at some of the more exotic asteroids lurking in one of the gravimetric sites. The rather large arkonor asteroid that was in the site ...
Deserted Talocan cruiser
Friday, August 7th, 2009Ooh, this is exciting. Investigating a magnetometric site in w-space, our engineering fleet reveals not only the usual Sleepers and abandoned artefacts but, off in the distance, a deserted Talocan cruiser hull! The thrill of finding something so unusual almost makes me forget to question how the artefacts ...
Test-piloting the Crane
Thursday, August 6th, 2009In our rich little w-space system another radar site crops up on the scanner, waiting to be plundered. Again, a host of Sleeper ships are alert enough turn up to attack, showing that we really ought to have thought of a better name to give them. Even facing ...
My first battleship is not mine
Wednesday, August 5th, 2009Before I leave the current w-space system behind me I have one last task. There is a Rokh that needs to be piloted out of w-space and its owner is not available for a few days. I may have postponed active training in battleship skills many months ago ...
Recovering abandoned ships
Tuesday, August 4th, 2009There is a spot of luck when a wormhole opens from the corporation's claimed w-space system in to Minmatar known-space. Admittedly, it is many jumps to the corporation's base, and to my stubbornly situated manufacturing base in the opposite direction, but the wormhole exit is only a few jumps ...
