Taking wing – An EVE Online Blog, with other things sprinkled on top. Running from my problems. July 27, 2015. The longer I play EVE, the more projects I undertake. Big ones like being a great solo PvPer, or winning the warzone for the Minmatar militia, or starting this blog. Random screenshot of me trying the Hookbill, which I think is going to be a new favourite. The realisation that I’ve bitten more than I can chew comes too late, and my initial reaction is to just bail. Coward’s way out. And so I fea...

Taking wing – An EVE Online Blog, with other things sprinkled on top. December 4, 2014. Entry for the Pod and Planet YC116 Fiction Contest. Category: Eight Thousand Suns in New Eden. May have broken out of official canon a few times but I had a blast writing this nevertheless. Hope you enjoy reading it too.🙂. EDIT: Missed the deadline. Woops. Feedback still welcome! Caille YC116, 6. A figure loomed out of nowhere in front of him, and Xamian, head bowed against the torrent, did not even notice. A hand su...

The Shepherd | Taking wing – An EVE Online Blog, with other things sprinkled on top.
https://mhizzing.wordpress.com/2015/06/28/the-shepherd
Taking wing – An EVE Online Blog, with other things sprinkled on top. June 28, 2015. Amazing how lazy the English language can be. Today we got into a fight with remote repairing Tristans with armour logi support. We had more numbers and destroyers, so I was confident. Some of my fleet, though, were not, and made their concerns apparent before the fight. Well, we ended up winning, and that doubt initially was what made me think about today’s post. Wow, it’s bad analogy hour. Apologies, it’...A sheph...

The ability to regret nothing… | Taking wing – An EVE Online Blog, with other things sprinkled on top.
https://mhizzing.wordpress.com/2015/07/03/the-ability-to-regret-nothing
Taking wing – An EVE Online Blog, with other things sprinkled on top. The ability to regret nothing…. July 3, 2015. 8230; doesn’t mean having to have everything. Accepting imperfection might not be easy, but it’s necessary. It’s impossible of course, to keep everyone. Happy Sometimes I wish the enemies we gank could just be happy we ganked them too, but that’s pretty ridiculous to hope for. Should I feel unaccomplished if I did not achieve an outcome everyone is happy with? It’s thoughts like this ...

Gunpowder treason and plot | Taking wing – An EVE Online Blog, with other things sprinkled on top.
https://mhizzing.wordpress.com/2015/07/11/gunpowder-treason-and-plot
Taking wing – An EVE Online Blog, with other things sprinkled on top. Gunpowder treason and plot. July 11, 2015. Beneath this mask there is more than flesh, Mr. Creedy. Beneath this mask there is an idea. And ideas are bulletproof. The phrase ‘gunpowder plot’ got stuck in my head while plexing a few days ago and it took me a while to figure out how. And my faction warfare efforts were related. Funnily enough, that starts with ‘v’ too. Should I, therefore, pretend I walk this road alone? Recently, people ...

Taking wing – An EVE Online Blog, with other things sprinkled on top. Oh, and the Oceanic Assault result. July 13, 2015. I’ve been holding onto a PLEX for a while now, I think I got one from some event that I can’t remember now. I think EDU? Anyway, I sold it at 97x million today, because I’ve become too lazy to convert my LP. But anyway, with the influx of fresh ISK, I made two major purchases that I’m super excited about. The Amarrian Deep Space Transport – Impel. While overheating. Incredible. You hav...

Taking wing – An EVE Online Blog, with other things sprinkled on top. Heroes are a lie; the disenchantment of war. July 21, 2015. I stare out of the station we had wrested from the Amarr, trying to gaze through my gaunt reflection and find in the glistening stars beyond the reason I stood here in the first place. What am I fighting for? My mere voice commands dozens of pilots, my hands guide weapons of mass destruction. My life is infinite (how long have I been alive already…? And yet here I am, searchin...

Let there be… airships? | Taking wing – An EVE Online Blog, with other things sprinkled on top.

Taking wing – An EVE Online Blog, with other things sprinkled on top. Let there be… airships? June 20, 2014. Okay, maybe not so grand. So that Dustia story I was talking about earlier, I’ve recently started getting back into the writing groove after temporarily abandoning my co-authors (collaborative writing is AWESOME! But that’s another post), but I’ve hit another bump. Namely, I want an airship. Of course, as an amateur. And here’s how I described it in the story:. The thing about airships is you use ...

Assessing the usefulness of capacitor batteries. | Taking wing – An EVE Online Blog, with other things sprinkled on top.

Taking wing – An EVE Online Blog, with other things sprinkled on top. Assessing the usefulness of capacitor batteries. July 15, 2015. I’m going to be taking a look at one of the… neglected, modules in EVE Online, the Capacitor Battery,. Poking around at why I think it isn’t used, and what could be done to make it more viable! Firstly, let me explain what it is, since most people wouldn’t know, because almost no-one uses them, not even for intentional shit-fits. Boosts your total capacitor by 420GJ. Now l...
