Terra Incognita
The lights of colony site twinkle in a mountain valley of this unnamed world. Stretching up into the night sky the safety lights of the space elevator mark off the kilometres up to the orbital terminus high above. Amongst the twinkling stars, other ephemeral flashes can be seen. One particular star grows brighter and [...]

Shinzann wrote a new blog post: I like Pie…

Quickly retyping this since I seemed to have deleted it…
Others have done this recently, and I like to share.
I used EVEHQ instead of EVEMon because: A) Nicer looking, easier to read chart, and B) I’ve already linked my ineve character sheet in a different post on this site.
The others?

Edmonton, Alberta
While on my way to the day job, I’m catching up on reading some EVE blogs when I come across EVE Guru’s tale of seeing animals. Intrigued, I look at the image. It seems to look a lot like the station my EVE toon is based out of in Caldari space. I’ll have [...]

Sankkasen system The Citadel region
Received the Angel Extravaganza mission again. Decided to try it with this time around. I used a similar tank to the one I used with Happy Face the first time around and it worked great. The damage to the armour was soaked up and repaired before I even had time [...]

Shinzann wrote a new blog post: Impulse purchase

One of the things I’ve always loved about EVE Online is how beautiful it is. Especially after Trinity and subsequent updates, I have spent hours just sitting in my ship, marvelling at just how gorgeous this game can be.
Especially the ships. The way the starlight gleams off metal and the fire and fury of weapons. [...]
