Heres my running commentry of whats happening in 0.0
I can't post this due to security reason (sounds super paranoid, but hey we're at war).
23:30. Bonus IV left T-8U0F for 37s, our staging system for the war zone.
23:42. After being followed down the 'pipe', a series of 1 entry/exit systems, by some merc's hired by our enemies we arrive safely. We're told combat will begin at 02:00 in the morning. (Currently bricking (hahahaha) it.)
23:47. Informed that there might be a Titan bridge (effectively a player created wormhole that'll allow us to travel vast distances.) that'll get us to our target system in mere seconds and in safely.
23:57 Moving out of 37s. Current fleet size 48.
00:00. We're being followed by a frigate.
00:02. A system we have to pass through has ALOT of hostiles, camp on the gate. We're holding 2 jumps out.
00:03 jumping in to neighbouring system. They still have the camp on their side.
00:10 We lost. I lost my megathron. We were expected to repair people who were way way out of the range of our modules. No way. I am sad.
00:43. Defence is getting prepared. Current fleet size 64.
00:55 Enemy cyno discovered, enemy titan in local.
01:00 I have 5 figthers assigned to me. These guys are gonna be doing my shooting :D
01:03 143 in system, 73 in system. Shit this is close.
01:22 we engaged their blockade unit, outgunned unfortunately. We returned to our POS to regroup. Apparently theres some allies or something shooting people.
01:48. Its over, after several battles around the system its finally ended. I managed to help a lot with my tackler frigate, and the assigned fighters to me managed to take down a battleship. I'm proud of those guys.
So all in all, it was a fairly eventful night. Enjoyed it to the end, I avenged my megathron death by killing one of theirs. Balance and harmony is restored.
I'll post pics later.

Phase 2.
You guys missed what happened in Phase 1*see below*, but man was it the most exciting thing ever to happen to me in Eve since I stepped into my fluidy pod. In the space of a month, our corporation grew, shrunk, exploded, healed and finally packed up and moved.
Our ship graveyard.
Me self destructing my Badger MKII
A really good looking planet
This photo was quite exciting actually, I was on the way back from 0.0 and encountered a blockade to the empire gate. Thankfully the ship I had was equipped with a Cloaking device, so I managed to sneak past all the ships and wrecks that littered to the floor.
Its certainly interesting to look back. In my last post in the middle of cold and snow covered January, life was looking pretty good for our corp. We had a good alliance, people were doing what they wanted. Killing shit and making money. I was making money, our corp was making money everyone was happy :) But, low and behold there were spy amongst our midst. In a case that is so commonly repeated throughout Eve the alliance and us found ourselves at the mercy of our naivety, happy people doing happy things making a happy new beginning. Then, two weekends ago, disaster struck. Our long time foe's, named only Primary had infiltrated our ranks with spies who had gained our trust and compassion. They struck a deadly blow, stealing and destroying half our capital fleet without warning while we were all tucked up in our sleepy beds. A second wave of disaster struck as realisation of what had happened came to bare, people started throwing accusations, insults flying everywhere. Not happy times :(
In the end the alliance lost its voice in the part of this galaxy, without any capitols, you have no influence. Without any capitols you can't move, take or defend anywhere.
With this in mind, we took a unanimous decision to cut our losses and leave. We did so under the cover of "Not to tell anyone in alliance." And it worked surprisingly. After about a weeks worth of logisitics, and you know who you lot are, amazingly well executed we finally, tonight officially moved out of our Alliances space.
But hopefully this signals a new beginning for our corporation. We're only 4 months old and we've experianced the best and worst Eve has to throw at us.
We're going to make it folks, watch this motherfuckin' space!

Spider Tank!
Ok, a lot has happened since I last updated, mostly just anger at the fact I had no ships up in 0.0
But! All is better now, today we had a fleet fight against the Fuzzy Nuts... funny name I guess. We lost, but it was still fun. I'm in my basilisk (a logistics ship) that is worth its weight in unobtanium. Its trick up its sleeve is to make energy appear from no where. Case and point:
The modual I use.)The 200 odd energy appears from no where! I can only use 2 of them plus a smaller medium one. But still, thats over 450 energy per cycle thats appearing from no where. So in effect, if you have 2 logistic ships with the 50% reduction in energy transfer they can basically keep each other perma-capped pretty fine. Allowing them to run constant armour and shield repairers. And, all of these with a 750% range increase. So you can sit 70km away from the battlefield making people happy and alive. Its what I was meant to do in eve :)
Apologises for not updating as often. But it shoud become more frequent now... yeaaaah, you havn't heard that before right?
I want that 1million still... I got fights to fund!

Long time no see adverturer!
Yeah, long time no update my friends. So whats happened since last time I've talked to myself?
We're now weaved into the great player tapistry that is null-sec. It is quite an amazin experiance I must say. I've had experiances with them before, but it's never been this fun. We've been out on a few PvP ops, killed some people. We also own our own Player Owned Station (POS). Our POS is basically a floating bunch of structures that can effectively simulate a station. We have a hanger, cargo hold and a fuckload of guns. I'll be updating with more screenshots and the likes.
P.S Updates fairly small, but not very much has been happening. Also, who ever said they'd give me a million ISK for each update... I'm still waiting! :P
P.P.S I should be updating a lot more often. RL stuff is ovar, so i should be more.

Man-o-eve
A lot has happened since the last time I updated.
Short story: Our wardec amounted to nothing, as did our alliance. We found a new one (expert PvP'ers so my friend says). And we're moving out (again) sometime soon.
Anyhoo, the long story is is that we were basically not prepared to take on alliance leadership this early. The guy who started it up had to basically stop play Eve while he got RL stuff sorted. So this led to a corp wide decision to go join an experiance PvP alliance somewhere in the world of Eve. We did, they are called Death From Above.. and they are extremely cool people. I was talking with a bunch of them and they seem to have everything sorted. They currently in the process of helping to move our stuff to 0.0, which is extremely helpful of them.
I'm really excited about this alliance, mainly because of the stores I've heard about them. They are currently an alliance made up of older members of [can't remember the name will get it soon :D] who nearly managed to single handily take over Raz0r space (who I once flew with back in 2006). Raz0r were destined to lose, but luckily for them they had large amounts of liquid cash to throw on things and did precisely that. They called in mass support from around the galaxy to save their space, which they ultimately won. (Recently Raz0r lost all of its sovereignty after long sieges stopped anything coming in.) So we joined them and we're extremely excited about our future.
So, this blog will now be about: 0.0 and fucking shit up... so actually its still teh same...

We're (in)famous!
Some quite fun news to share.
We've been war dec'ed (Basically some corporation hates (likes?) us enough to pay for Concord to take a blind eye to fighting us. Its the legal method of killing peoples ships.
Whats really interesting is that this corp is a mercenary corp. So, they've been hired by someone who we've pissed off enough to pay for a war dec. In the regions off hundreds of millions of ISK. Possibly in the billions. So, in our eyes its a win win situation. We get even more targets to kill and the station guns won't effect us. So the conspiracies are about, who sent them after us? A lone raider with something to prove? A corp mate that dissented? Or maybe that Macro Hauler (evil people) who we blew up... about 10 times...
Heres them photos:
I thought it was a very pretty picture of a sunrise on a planet
A sleeper battleship (Notice the weird face...)
And my late caracal...

Don't look now;
Well the last week has been pretty interesting to say the least. After the horrific defeat at what I'm now calling "The Shattered Ice" battle, in reference to the commander freezing that happened, we decided to move. Yes, moving in Eve is possibly the most boring thing to do ever, you sit there in a ship, flying through hi-sec space, moving a load of modules/packaged ships to a new destination. Sounds boring right? Yes, and it gets a whooooole lot worse when the new system your going to is 30 odd jumps away. In real life time that takes around half an hour to do in a fairly slow transport ship. The freighters that move most of our big stuff take about an hour. Its not good for the soul at all.
But its good when you see it make a difference though; we moved basically the entire corps ass(ets) up to Minmitar low sec space. We're just waiting for the Dominion patch to come out tomorrow and then we're going to get on to some shooty bang bang in remote repair battleship gangs. (Its where every battleship carriers a repair module so we can all shoot and heal each other together). I ordered a megathron, to be named Bonus MK II in memory of its predecessor. So pictures shall be incoming... eventually.
A little about the area we're in. Its fairly hostile, ALOT of locals flying around in haulers when we first arrived. If you notice our killboards they'll have several hauler kills on there. I doubt the natives are going to try moving stuff through our system anytime soon :D
On the final note we're still recruiting. If you want to check us out head over to The Reformed Public channel and check us out.
Requirements: 2mil SP (negotiable if you really want to become a pirate)
ventrillo
able to fly a BC or better (again, this is negotiable if your close to getting some good ships learned)
Also, for those from the B12 forums talk to me ingame, names Nilocy.
