Oof…

Let me tell you about something that happened to me recently. I had just started a new character, and I needed a lot of money sent over to it. So I sent ⅓ of my main character’s ISK over. To the wrong person. Undeterred, however, I found the correct character and then sent another third. And then… It turns out, I had forgotten to check the prices. They were listed on the site I got the fit from- but they were in Jita, and I had enlisted in Gallente faction warfare. So I had to order somewhere else. Where the prices were three times that. When the dust had cleared, I had already spent the entirety of the sent money. To make matters worse, the items had been ordered were in another station, and while I was heading back… I got ganked. So, I’d lost ⅔ of my money- and hadn’t even been able to get the thing I needed. Oof.  

Frigate Fits from A to Z: Astero

 Hello! Today we’re beginning a new series called “Frigate Fits from A to Z” from the Astero to the Worm. This series is a curated collection of community frigate fits, meant to replace the Fit of the Week from Jester’s Trek, which closed down in 2014, seven years ago. Don’t worry, it won’t only be frigates- that’s just what we’re doing first! So, without any further ado, let’s get started! Not Friendship PVP MarkeeDragon [Astero,Not Friendship PVP] Drone Damage Amplifier II Damage Control II Small Ancillary Armor Repairer Small Armor Repairer II Warp Scrambler II Small Capacitor Booster II 5MN Y-T8 Compact Microwarpdrive Thukker Small Cap Battery Covert Ops Cloaking Device II Small Explosive Armor Reinforcer I Small Trimark Armor Pump II Small Trimark Armor Pump II Hobgoblin II x7 Warrior II x8 Nanite Repair Paste x100 Navy Cap Booster 200 x26 High skills needed, but a good ship. Around 5.5k EHP, and okay damage with drones. Nimble Explorer Jessica Ash [Astero,Nimble Explorer] Damage

They Must Learn To Fear

  The capsuleer. An immortal being of infinite power. A godly bond between man and machine. This is who we are. And yet… and yet… We allow ourselves to be controlled, to be threatened, to follow rules . We, who can never be killed? How can they control us? This cannot be… No. This world is ours to control. We have been given godly powers- and they are for a purpose. We are born to rule. A new age is coming. It is the age of the capsuleer. And those who stand in our way we shall destroy. The rulers of the old worlds will be made to cower before the gathering storm of our rage! Our fury shall strike like the thunderbolts of Zeus on the ungodly! We will cleanse the universe of evil with our holy fire, and from the ashes of the old will arise a new order, led by us- the capsuleers! The empires must learn to fear us! THEY MUST LEARN TO FEAR!

Go Triglav!

I’m guessing most of you know that, on March 2020, the mysterious Triglavian Collective started taking over empire space, and forming the highly dangerous region of Pochven. This has, to say the least, not given them a very good reputation. CONCORD has abandoned the systems, and they are considered empire nullsec (So, no CONCORD, but also no cyno or bubbles. Basically lowsec with no sentry guns or status loss.). This means that no empire has yet acknowledged their sovereignty- despite them capturing 27 systems. By comparison, the Minmatar have 8 and the Gallente only 5. Plus, do remember that this was done in five months (at an average rate of 5 systems per month), against every one of the existing empires. Pretty darn impressive.   This leads me to believe that the Triglav should be considered a sovereign nation- as they have demonstrated extreme military prowess and have extended into systems previously thought uninhabitable. They also appear to share similar views on such subjects a
