Touching the monolith

Thursday, April 19th, 2012

Like any good hooligan, I'm looking abroad for a fight. But which direction shall I head? There are two wormholes in the home system today, one leading to our neighbouring class 3 w-space system as usual, and another coming in also from class 3 w-space. A K162 is always a ...

Looking for rats and finding trouble

Sunday, February 26th, 2012

Both the static wormhole and glorious leader Fin have collapsed. Fin orchestrated collapsing the wormhole before deciding it was already late enough. I'm keen to take another look around w-space in the hopes of finding an exit close to Jita so I can buy a new and expensive toy. I ...

Little but empty ships

Tuesday, October 25th, 2011

I have some time to myself, I'm going to take an early afternoon stroll through w-space. That means scanning my way through wormholes first, though, as I need to find the path before I can follow it. A couple of new signatures in the home system turn out to be ...

All I can do is watch

Monday, August 15th, 2011

I wake up in empire space, which is a disquieting sensation. Pilots everywhere, people talking to each other, ships happily jostling around the docking perimeter. I'm glad I made some safe spots even in these high-sec systems, where I can sit by myself to launch probes and scan in as ...

Ambushed on the prowl

Wednesday, May 25th, 2011

I'm so proud. I spot the wormhole's signature out of the dozen or so littering our inner system, recognising the strength and positioning of the two split signals. A brief search finds no more likely looking signatures and I warp to the static connection, jumping through to our neighbouring class ...

Looking in the wrong direction

Sunday, May 15th, 2011

Despite not popping the Moa harvesting gas I am not expecting the cruiser to be back in the ladar when I return from eating my sammich. Rather than roaming in a stealth bomber I take my Buzzard covert operations boat through our neighbouring class 3 w-space system and in to ...

Prowling for fuel

Sunday, March 13th, 2011

We could use some fuel and fittings. We tend to run out of the first quite regularly, almost on a schedule, and shortage of the second only let themselves be known right before we want to use them. It's difficult keeping a fully stocked hangar of modules for all eventualities ...

Crows look like black monster shapes

Friday, February 11th, 2011

It feels like ages since someone foolishly threw themselves in front of my missiles. Let's see if I cross such a capsuleer's path today. Scanning our system finds the static wormhole directly beneath our home planet, which provides some glorious views of the ringed gas giant when warping to and ...

Coming from the other direction

Tuesday, January 11th, 2011

I wonder if we've had visitors. As the home system is not stabilising I can't be the first pilot to be here today. But maybe glorious leader Fin was busy earlier harvesting gas. There is no sign of anyone currently in the system, so I launch probes and scan, looking ...

Looking after the leap

Wednesday, January 5th, 2011

I forgot about the second tower. I saw it, and avoided it to launch probes, but for some reason I simply disregarded it entirely instead of considering it the home of the miner. The tower I saw first, with the Tengu strategic cruiser sitting unpiloted inside, caught my attention and ...
