Time to return to the front

Yogita and I have finally figured out how we can make ends meet in high sec, it is time to return to the front lines. The corparation we are with is very understanding, but now it is time to help burn down the goon led empire. 

We will not be using capitals until we are more settled. Right now with current way sov is held, it is easy to grab it, but very hard to hold on to it. We already have 3 carriers stranded, there is no reason to  add to that number. 

On a positive note our ore sold....so that is 6.1 billion in our pocket! I want to try out the new changes to carriers....but we need a stable home in null security space with good intel channels. 

So we will head over to the staging system and remain on standby until it is time to fleet up. 

I have about 250 million isk in tags, so I am hoping to get that to 500 million isk BEFORE heading to the front line. I do not know exactly how ship replacement programs work in this new alliance, so for now we will repalce our own ships....so that means....iskies needed!!!!

Getting used to life in High sec

One thing people like my wife and I miss about null is the easy isk. You go out in your favorite ratting ship, and usually earn 60-100 million isk an hour. Carriers were awesome for this, rattlesnakes, vindicators, ishtars, Dominixs, Heck I know of people people using super carriers. The bottom line due to awesome intel channels, you knew what was entering your area of space.

Some nights after work a famous multi boxer who uses a group of 4 interceptors would buzz through branch, we would keep on ratting knowing that we were not his targets. We even had a fit that could kill at least on of his ceptors with super fast, super tracking light drones. Too bad carriers will not be able to use drones soon. Not to mention the great complexes that can be probed out.

Nuff said the time to adapt for the short term is on us. Today while grinding missions I realized how I made isk years ago. Tags! In other words there are missions where your target is opposing faction ships. They have no bounty on them, but the tags are worth nice amount of isk. I used to save em up and sell them Usually making hundreds of millions of isk, each time I went to market. In some cases usually monthly I would cash in my lp as well. So I will do the same. Today I have made about 200 million isk salvaging and looting certain missions, making sure to run storyline missions. So instead of waiting until I have billions I wait until I have about a couple hundred mill.

Oh well...on with the grind!

Hump day

Well it is in the middle of the week. It is time for us to plex our main accounts. Plex is an acronym used in eve. Pilot license extension, which as as its name implies adds game time to a players account. This is an item that you can buy with cash and sell it in game. Yogi and I are really good at making isk....interstellar kredits. Isk is the in game currency. Basically we do not use real money to buy game time.
Right now we have been kicked out of branch, we have left the imperium. Right now we have no good areas to make isk. So tonight we will probe for combat sites. Any good wormholes we will use to take our goods directly to market hubs. Sucks being homeless.

Losing our home

Well one thing you can count on in the world of Eve online....nothing stays the same. Right now we are getting invaded on three different fronts. Multiple stations have been "free ported", this means that anyone can dock there. I have not seen something like this before. It seems as if everyone is rising up contesting, and taking our space. Branch is longer a safe zone. Yogi and I have decided the 30-40 billion we have in assets will be collected later. We have enough isk to not worry about losing access to our capitals, and other ships. 

I am left feeling a bit sad because....well branch has been home to us for a long time. We basically took it from the White Noise alliance. We are fighting tooth and nail....but...we are being pushed back. 

So we are at a crossroads....stick with fcon and see how the phoenix rises again. Or start somewhere new....time will tell.
