Eve Tagline: Stront

prometheus09 — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 01:47:10 +0000

One of the more common contracts that Noir. gets is POS tack downs, which are extremely boring and made all the more complicated by that pesky stront timer. Thus you have this weeks Tagline.

Asymmetrical Warfare: Part One

The Captains Log 1/9

Solar System: Chaven

Station: Imperial Academy School

This part one of a two part series about asymmetrical warfare in Eve and how weaker attacking force have to employ guerrilla tactics to overcome the superior material resources enjoyed by defending forces.

On our recent contract in period Basis the local residents seemed to get a little annoyed with the fact that us Noir. pilots tend to cloak up and hide in the face of superior numbers, resulting in this hate site (http://www.noirarecloakyfaggots.com/) about us. Due to this I’m going to enlighten you all about asymmetrical warfare from the point of view of Noir. attacking a contracted target, in particular 0.0 alliances.

From the Viewport is a series of images that have been collected during my travels though the cluster.

Solar System: Unknown

Ship: Iteron Mark V class Industrial

Today marked the last day of my moon goo reaction POS network in a wormhole system. After running it for 6-9 months (not sure on how long, if I had the content from my old blog I could tell you) I have pulled down every piece of POS equipment I had and sold it.

Eve Tagline: POS Networks

prometheus09 — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 11:37:24 +0000

In light of my experience of operating a moon goo reaction POS networking and then overseeing its removal, I thought that this was appropriate.

Well some of you may have noticed that over the last month or so that I have not posted a blog entry. You may have even noticed that my blog had disappeared off the net completely.

The killmails for our current contract in Period Basis has provided us with plenty of amusement, which I thought I would share with all of you.

Bad Things Happan

The Captains Log 21/7

Solarsystem: Unknown

Shiptype: Heron Class Frigate

It was that time of the week when I had to log on to my industry alts and probe a wormhole exit to get my moon reaction goo out of the wormhole and POS fuel in. This time though, things went wrong. My first probing alt found a wormhole exit, however it went to another wormhole; not the one what I wanted. So I probed down a second wormhole and warped to it only to find a Legion on it. I was too far out to jump and didn’t have enough time to warp out. So I lost my probing ship and my Pod.

How to perform a Bombing Run

prometheus09 — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 00:21:33 +0000

With the changes CCP has made to Stealth Bombers (Torpedos and Covert Ops Cloaks) and to Bombs (made them vastly cheaper) they are beginning to see a lot of use. Unfortunately (or fortunately for me since I can kill them) a lot of people fail at using them (examples 1, 2 and 3), therefore I feel obliged to repost this little guide.

Wormhole Treasures

Shiptype: Armageddon Class Battleship

In wormholes there are plenty of treasures to be found; such as POS’s that are about to come out of reinforced. Now you may ask how is this a treasure? Well its quite simple. If a POS is in reinforced it means that someone has put it into reinforced and therefore someone has to come back and finish destroying it; which means we can get ourselves a fight.
