Ice Mining in Jarzalad

 On Thin Ice

Just thought I'd finish out the night in another belt of ice.  Mining Hold is nearly full.  Thought this was a nice view.

A couple of days of multi-hour mining expeditions.  Here is a snap of the mining cargo hold

I love the Orca

Here is a screenshot of ice mining in Kothe on 4/17/2026

Here I have an Orca, 2 Hulks (I had them handy, but will ice break with Machinaws generally)

 






The Timing was Right

 

The Timing was Right

Well, after man years of a long break, I guess I am sucked back into EVE Online once again.  I have been a solo industrialist basically focusing on mining and manufacturing, but now it looks like it’s time to join a new corporation of living and breathing souls.  I admit, it is relaxing strip-mining asteroid belts solo, but EVE has always been about interactions.  You meet people from all over the world trying to eke out a living and enjoy the scenery.

Just last night, I was in a large omber/kernite anomaly, and I noticed a little Venture who was blue on my overview.  I’m terrible with names, but I did recall inviting him to my fleet the previous time I was in Akoosh.  I chatted with him and invited him again.  It turns out he’s from the EU and works on a cruise ship.  He is currently in port and trying to save up enough ISK to buy a new Armageddon.  Unfortunately, he lost his in a level 4 security mission.  I’ve been there before.  I was wrapping up the belt and I felt bad I had to leave.

I went back to station and removed all my roles from my four alts so I could leave my holdings corp and get ready to apply to a new one.  Only time will tell, but I wont be going it alone. 

I’ll update soon.  As always, fly safe.
