Solo PvP Ships Ranked

So where is the Tristan? I limited each tier to only six ships - which means there are plenty of good ships, like the Tristan, that did not make the cut. In the current meta the Tristan has lost some of its historic luster. Sadly, but it is the truth. It is increasingly difficult for any T1 Frigate to not only find solo content, but survive it once it has been found. That is just the reality of Eve today. So what I tried to do was create five tiers and rank the six best ships at each of those parameters. All-Around ships, like the Comet, perform under a very, very wide window of engagement. As do the other ships on the list. Those engagement windows are different for each one of these ships, but they are all very wide. And the Hecate makes it because it also can probe. Situational Best are ships that I feel are the best at more specific goals than the all-around ships. The windows are smaller, but still impressive. But in these ships you really run the risk of picking the wrong e...

In Extremis?

in ex·tre·mis ˌin ikˈstrāmis,ˌin ikˈstrēmis/ adverb 1. in an extremely difficult situation."they suddenly find themselves in extremis 20 miles out to sea"  ◦ at the point of death.      Given the recent lack of activity here in these vaunted pages, it would only be natural to start assuming that I've decided to stop writing in the blog. Perhaps I am burned out. Toasted. Turning bitter old vet, or else have succumbed to distraction. After all, I do have a lot of irons in the fire these days. The truth is buried somewhere in there, but the fact is that I was simply taking a nice break from writing here in these pages. I have no intention of stopping any time soon. If ever. There is just too much sweat equity in these words and images. Having said that, I did purposefully take a short break. Primarily because my usual morning window for writing has collapsed due to my new job. Put that up against the energy expended in the lead up to Fanfest and then the...

Alliance Tournament XV

Things are heating up for this Summer's Alliance Tournament. Yesterday we got a look at some stats from this year's prize ships a nd they are, as always, very impressive . This will be A Band Apart's third Alliance Tournament believe it or not. And after last year's Top 16 finish, this time around we are automatic bid worthy! (Forms and Plex already delivered.) I could not be prouder of our team. We've already been hard at work with our practice schedule for well over a month now and the rules are not even out yet. I don't expect many changes this year, but there are always the subtle things that you have to look out for. Maybe some point changes when it comes to certain ship types? Who knows. But we will all find out around this time next week. Funny, even after almost nine years of playing this crazy game, I'm still racing to get a few skills trained up before the Tournament starts. All of Rixx's skills are sub-cap skills and even with 160m+ alr...

Walking in Stations: Revisited

Was Walking in Stations an idea ahead of its time? Or an ill-conceived "look at the monkey" concept that died an appropriate death? Is it dead and gone, or could it be revived and restored? Will we ever get the chance to open the door to our Captain's Quarters? So many questions with so few answers. WiS was surrounded by questions like these before Incarna was released and it most certainly was after Incarna. Many of those questions remain unanswered, unresolved and buried in development that never happened and likely will never happen. Walking in Stations, rightly or wrongly, got wrapped up in other issues at the time of the Incarna release that doomed it to the dusty shelves of half-forgotten and abandoned theme development. This cannot be denied. So we know what became of WiS, but what is it and will it ever be addressed again? The current revisionist upswing in interest in WiS is primarily being driven by the upswing in new subscribers. New players, discoveri...

Wild Banshee Indians

Whenever my brother and I would run around like crazy people, our Mother would say, "You two are like a pack of wild banshee Indians." The Internets say, "A banshee Indian is an Indian mythical female spirit whose wailing or appearance warns a family that one of them will soon die. Before a death occurs, the Indian banshee will go wailing and clapping hands: if the death is of a holy person, a whole chorus of banshees will wail." Ok fine, I believe everything I read on the Internets. I don't think my Mom seriously thought my brother and I were harbingers of death, at least I hope not. I suspect what she was on about was the sounds we were probably making. When you are a kid these sounds are normal, but when you grow up and have children of your own - well then you know exactly what kind of Hell your own parents lived through. What does any of this have to do with Eve? The whole idea of "wild banshee indians", not the actual historical words, ...
