Having a crack at a cov-ops

Friday, September 12th, 2014

Let's off-road! I swap back from Sleeper combat to my scouting Proteus strategic cruiser, sending it directly towards our static wormhole, which I hope I'm opening. Kinda. I'd rather it had been closed whilst I was shooting Sleepers, but not many newly opened wormholes catch other pilots unawares these days. ...

Plenty of ships and nothing I can do about it

Wednesday, September 10th, 2014

Pumped from watching ships go through a wormhole with nothing I could do about it, I head back home and across to our neighbouring class 3 w-space system to see what else I can watch without getting involved. Pinging my directional scanner from our K162 in C3a sees ships and ...

Waiting for what doesn't return

Tuesday, September 9th, 2014

Another day in space. I'm greeted by two new sites, which could ease me in to the evening if it weren't for the extra signature. Probably. I dunno, I've not even launched probes yet. There they go, whizzing off, converging on that... second wormhole. No sites for me tonight, instead ...

Crossing paths with a Sabre

Monday, September 8th, 2014

Hopping back in to my Proteus strategic cruiser to go scouting through our constellation, it's oddly comforting to be able to cloak again after a spell in a Golem marauder and a test firing in our Revelation dreadnought. No one can see me fly! Maybe I can sneak up on ...

Empty systems or empty ships

Friday, September 5th, 2014

Back in my scouting Proteus after diverting to high-sec, I can reconnoitre that second K162 wormhole in our home system. It leads to class 3 w-space, like our static wormhole, and hopefully there is activity somewhere behind it. I warp my strategic cruiser across to the K162, jump to C3b, ...

Vaguely reckless logistics

The gas is still here? What the hell, space, get your act together. There are three more signatures in the home system too, probably more gas to taunt me, letting me know that the gas will never leave. It will never leave! I'd best scan it to make sure, before ...

Interrupting rock chomping

Wednesday, September 3rd, 2014

Moving on, I think I'll explore C5b. The wormhole to that class 5 w-space system is a K162 in this one, meaning the wormhole was opened from the other side, giving the possibility of activity. Then again, there is a potentially active pilot idling in an Anathema covert operations boat ...

Watching the discovery scanner in action

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2014

That gas still hasn't gone yet. I bet that extra signature in the home system is more gas, just to prolong my discomfort. Or maybe it's a second wormhole, a K162 from class 2 w-space that will have a second static connection to high-sec empire space. That's a decent option, ...

Low, low, low

Monday, September 1st, 2014

It's still just me and gas. I can't quite manage to release it from my system. That makes our home system closed, though, but without any good anomalies popped up, I'm out of here just as soon as I find our static wormhole. I warp to yesterday's bookmark on a ...

Seeing orange in low-sec

Sunday, August 31st, 2014

It's just me, a pocket of gas, and our static wormhole to start off the evening. There are also a couple of good anomalies, double what we had yesterday. I am tempted to leave them another day, see if they turn in to four for tomorrow, but I like keeping ...
