Memoirs: Death

For most capsuleers, Death is a constant companion. If we're not dying, we're killing. If we're not killing, we're trading in the implements of death. If we're not trading, we're manufacturing new and improved ways of killing people. Funny occupations for someone who's functionally immortal, don't you think? I guess there's some truth to the […] Read more

Memoirs: Kyonoke Inquest

The inquest at the H4-RP4 facility. Kyonoke. That wasn't a good time. I couldn't not go, not when I received the invitation. If I hadn't received one, I'd have kicked up whatever trouble I could, until I got one; But I have to admit, I was still terrified . I mean, I live in a […] Read more

Memoirs - Flying

(Fiction! Yay!) I guess this is the key feature of being a capsuleer. Piloting a ship, flying with just your mind. I've been told the experience is different for everyone, so I can only speak for myself. It's a hard thing to put into words, but I'll try. Have you ever driven? Where you don't […] Read more

Memoirs - Humanity

(Fiction, yay :D ) Am I still human? That's an interesting question. I guess the technically correct answer is no. I'm not. This body isn't born, it's made. My brain isn't grown, it's forced into a state when my last body died. While it's probably now a match for my original genetic structure, it didn't […] Read more

Memoirs - Becoming

Calling me a loyal son of Matar would be a stretch. If I was, I'd probably be in the Military, exercising my talents there, and furthering the goals of the Tribes. Instead, I broke off, shortly after graduating; going my own way, forming my own corporation, and setting up business in Gallente space. I mean, […] Read more

Memoirs - Self Image

(It may not be good, but I don't care. You don't need to read it ;) ) Self Image I've been asked before, why capsuleers aren't all perfect specimens. Why some of us are scarred. Why some bear the legacy of the human endurance program. Why, when we can shape ourselves in pretty much any […] Read more

Head Canon - Blueprints

ooo, fiction. Flee while you can! Head Canon - An explanation I've come up with, with no backing from the original material. "Damn it." Steve unlocked the catches holding the blueprint cartridge into the console, before removing it, and using a can of compressed air to clean it and the slot. "I could have blown […] Read more

Fiction - Claustrophobia

I never used to be claustrophobic; If I had been, I'd never have entered the Capsuleer program. Spending all the time in such a tight enclosed space would have sent me running for the hills. These days, getting into, and out of, my capsule gives me the screaming heebie-jeebies. That time after the capsule closes, […] Read more

Navy Doctrine Fits

There have been a few criticisms coming out of the recent live event, which saw a bunch of people leaving high sec to attack a target in NPC Nullsec. Most of them were people whining. Some were more valid, mostly focusing around in game organisation. This post flows from one of the latter. One of […] Read more

Manufacturing 101

The basics of manufacturing in EVE are pretty simple at their core: Get a blueprint, get some minerals/components, put in a manufacturing job, deliver it when it completes. But as with most things in EVE, there are little twiddly bits to take into account, various bits of maths it's helpful to know. This post is […] Read more
