Noticing new signatures as I come and go

Wednesday, August 13th, 2014

What treats does w-space hold for me this evening? A new signature in the home system for a start. I mistakenly identify it as gas initially, but only because I clumsily ignore the wrong signature. Poking the right one with probes finds a second wormhole. It's only a K162 from ...

Get loot, sell loot

I popped a Tengu strategic cruiser but had to leave the wreck behind, deciding to flee from a Navy Vexor cruiser. That's cool, my Proteus strategic cruiser is still cruising, having warped to our K162 to get out of further trouble. Checking my directional scanner shows that the Vexor has ...

Taking on a Tengu

Monday, August 11th, 2014

There's been some churn at home, with some new signatures coming in to the system from wherever. I launch probes and scan to determine what we've got, resolving a couple of gas sites and some relics, which suits me fine. Out to our neighbouring class 3 w-space system I go. ...

Finding a cloaky Protey

Saturday, August 9th, 2014

I'll just have a poke around tonight, I think. There's not much to see in the home system, giving me a simple start. Our gas sites have been blown away by the solar wind and no new ones have come to replace them. I have just the new static wormhole ...

Refitting to rat

Friday, August 8th, 2014

Curiousity sated about the proximity of two wormholes in the Heimatar region, I turn my attention to see what's caused the wormhole to crackle. It's the Helios, the covert operations boat that I saw only briefly on my directional scanner in the class 3 w-space system, now poking through C3a's ...

Two exits to Heimatar

Thursday, August 7th, 2014

Scanning the home system sees nothing of immediate interest. One extra signature could herald possible visitors, or it could be another gas cloud wafting through. It's gas. Despite the closed system, our anomalies were stolen yesterday, leaving me little else to do but warp to our static and jump to ...

Sucking without support

Wednesday, August 6th, 2014

Back to the current situation, with Devoter, Prowler, and wormholes. What to do? Check the C4 K162, naturally. Aww, naw, let's see what the Devoter heavy interdictor is up to. In to C5d, where the wormhole is clear, d-scan is not. Two towers are visible, as are a Vindicator battleship, ...

Not seeing red

Tuesday, August 5th, 2014

There are reds in the constellation, and they may be a little upset. I've just turned one of their scouts in to a corpse. Of course, they may alternatively be pleased that I taught him the importance of not being seen, in a suitably harsh manner, but even if that's ...

From blue to red

Monday, August 4th, 2014

I hope w-space is going to be more active tonight than it has been recently. A cursory glance at the home system as I come on-line suggests that, yep, shit's been going down. Select anomalies are missing from our system, damned thieves, and extra signatures almost certainly point to extra ...

Nothing and no one

Sunday, August 3rd, 2014

It's a new day in w-space. Technically, at least. In reality, there doesn't seem to be any change since yesterday, beyond the assumed churn of our static wormhole. No anomalous action with Sleepers to start the night, I simply scan the wormhole and, hah, the wormhole's even in the same ...
