Two Tengus out to play, shooting Sleepers who get in their way. Fin and I are plundering the first of two anomalies in our neighbouring class 3 w-space system, the only two sites of interest here. The system is occupied but inactive, a couple of haulers turning up briefly to ...

Today's wormhole is nicely conspicuous against a background of bookmarked signatures. It's not quite a fully mapped system any more, although noting the single new anomaly corrects that, and more signatures will appear soon enough, but for a few days I should have an easier time plucking the wormhole from ...

I start scanning the home system and realise it is a good day to take a proper look around. I am by myself, the afternoon is relatively early, and plenty of sites are missing. I could do with removing the defunct bookmarks to get a clearer picture of the system ...

Today will be a supply run. Glorious leader Fin has been scouting and explored our neighbouring class 3 w-space system, finding two towers, no pilots, and an exit wormhole to high-sec empire space. I take my Crane transport ship out through the exit to the Genesis region, looking to buy ...

A Noctis isn't much use when salvaging other people's wrecks. The salvager ship's tractor beams won't be able to lock on to wrecks owned by others, negating the main bonuses of improved range and speed of the beams. A more traditional destroyer is more suitable, being agile and quick, zipping ...

Scanning the home system is becoming involving again. Two new gravimetric sites and an extra ladar site need resolving whilst I hunt for today's static wormhole, and perhaps other signatures are disappearing. The changes are making it difficult to discern the new wormhole signal from the static cloud of bookmarked ...

A conspicuous wormhole is a good wormhole. At least, it is in the home system, either to go out exploring or to warn of potential invasion. Today, as is the more common case, I am heading through our static wormhole to explore our neighbouring class 3 w-space system. A punch ...

Scanning again, I jump through our static wormhole in to another pulsar system. Our home class 4 w-space system holds a pulsar, nicely boosting shields and capacitors, and this C3 gives the same benefits. If I find any ships here, I had better take stronger shields in to account. Nothing ...

There are more missing signatures at home. I imagine Fin has been harvesting gas, which is relatively quick to do and helps declutter our class 4 w-space system. I delete the bookmarks to obviously missing signatures but don't perform a full scan of the system, instead resolving our static wormhole ...

The Noctis got away, but the activity doesn't halt. Our bombing run on the salvager sees the alert pilot escape from my inept clutches, thwarting glorious leader Fin's kill, leaving the Sleeper wrecks still in the anomaly. And it doesn't look like the local pilots want their profit go to ...
