Into the Black

Last night I logged in and decided to give the Stealth Bomber a try again. I packed up some bombs and set course for HED-GP in catch, a AAA alliance station system a mere three jumps from Paxton Federation space and a portal to high sec nonetheless. I considered going deeper into Catch and visiting the U'K pilots but I was lazy.

Once in HED I went about making bookmarks, warping around cloaked, and keeping an eye out for potential targets of my primed bombs. At one point a friendly fleet came in and I watched it dispatch a couple enemy interceptors, but they left and most of the time it was me and a host of reds in local.

But not all of the reds were blue to each other as local chat will attest to:

Near the end of my night I saw a red fleet with some juicy targets warp to the gate I was watching, so I moved into position and just before I uncloaked the fleet started to jump. I decided to launch the bomb anyways to catch any potential stragglers but to no avail. I warped and safe spotted up, pleased that the practice in New Mexico was serving me well here.

  1. One of the things that I always find inherently frustrating about Eve is the blatant smacktalk and ego stroking that goes on in the local channels... The ego in that game is unlike anything else I've experienced in any other MMO.
