Great Wildlands - A capsuleer pilot has completed a successful circumnavigation of New Eden with his ship surviving the journey intact. DevilDogUSMC of H E L I C O N Alliance travelled clockwise around the entire cluster over four days, following a route made up of some one hundred and eighteen individual waypoints and making no less than five hundred and two jumps in his Helios class covert ops frigate. When asked why he chose to make such a long and potentially perilous journey, DevilDogUSMC [...]
Rasile – A week ago, another Sansha wormhole appeared in the Rasile system where capsuleers battled and defeated a Sansha Revenant piloted by Slave Tedra01, a name also recognised as an Interstellar Correspondent reporter. In the week prior, ISD Tedra Kerrigan gained access to a private facility in the Stain region. There, she was allowed an exclusive one-on-one interview with Sansha Kuvakei to discuss the increased Sansha activity within New Eden. There is now evidence suggesting that before her [...]
New Eden - DevilDogUSMC has completed his second circumnavigation of New Eden in less than 12 hours. The venture saw him manually navigate through 25 regions, including Delve, Fountain and Cache, and make a total of 435 system jumps, beginning in Fluekele, Sinq Laison and finishing in 4C-B7X, Outer Ring. DevilDogUSMC had hoped that his second circumnavigation would attract more capsuleers, and afterward he claimed he was satisfied with how it went: "I had a greater positive reaction in 0.0 than I [...]
Yulai, Genesis - At 04:30 on 18.05.112, a conference will begin in "The Summit" virtual reality channel. The conference, formally titled "The Strategic Accord on Re-Emerging Powers" aims to formulate a united strategic posture for capsuleers of all Empires that can be deployed against both the current Sansha raids and possible future Sleeper threats. The conference will be hosted by Abbess Ashar KorAzor of the Order of the Blessed Sisters of Amarr, in partnership with Julianus Soter (founder of the [...]
Jita is a notorious haven in New Eden for scamming. Being the primary trade hub within New Eden, capsuleers come to Jita with the intention of buying or selling items, and some capsuleers fall foul of varied and crafty scams. There is the most common form of scam; offering to "double your ISK" by claiming to send you twice the amount you send them. Some scammers will send back double of small amounts of ISK in the hopes that you will send back larger amounts for doubling after your 'test'. Needless to [...]
In its annual report published yesterday, CONCORD's Communications Regulation Agency (CCRA) revealed a number of intriguing facts about current trends in universal communications. Most notable was the rise in popularity of the GalNet forum, a podium venue for the capsuleer community to bring to light issues of concern to them and their associates. Originally intended as a pure communications vehicle for pod pilots, GalNet has, in the course of the last year, become something more. Last February, in [...]
Rens , Heimatar. Enigmatic Minmatar billionaire Estel Arador has recently celebrated the 10,000th capsuleer jump clone installation with his not-for-profit organization, Estel Arador's Corp Services [EACS]. At the corporate headquarters located in the Brutor Tribe Treasury, Rens IV, Arador broadcast a special message personally thanking all those who have contributed to the project. During the speech he urged every capsuleer to take advantage of their facilities: "I'd like to thank everyone who has [...]
Rens , Heimatar. Estel Arador Corp Services [EACS] will be be sold to the highest bidder this week. The corporation has been speculatively valued, based on past donations from satisifed customers, at between six and eight billion ISK; with no value placed on one thousand extant 'novelty' shares. Current CEO and founder Estel Arador told the Interstellar Correspondents that "due to changing personal circumstances" he would no longer be able to take an active hand in the day to day administration of the [...]
Mineral prices in New Eden fluctuate on a daily basis creating additional work for New Eden's entrepreneurs actively involved in the markets. The Eve Morning Reports was created by a capsuleer to ease that burden. The Eve Morning Report, created and broadcast by Utemetsu, claims to be a very detailed, daily update on many mineral prices including recaps of previous prices for capsuleers to determine trends. Utemetsu recalled that compiling the information for the broadcast used to take a great deal of [...]
Pator, Heimatar - Recently, capsuleer Borgholio offered relief in the form of ISK to The Minmatar People's Theatre to help with the reconstruction efforts after the main stage had been bombed last month as part of a protest by the Minmatar right-wing organisation Free our Families [FOF]. FOF members had claimed responsibility for destroying the stage as a reaction to the continued showing of the controversial play 'Plantation'. The Scope also reported that the theatre's director had faced death [...]
YWS0-Z, Providence - On 112.04.29, Chipmo of The Star Fraction announced on GALNET the foundation of his Civil Court of New Providence [CCCNP]. Chipmo's court will offer capsuleers a way to resolve disputes without resorting to violence. Initially based in Providence, it may eventually be extended to all of New Eden's pilots. The court will operate with Chipmo as a monocratic justice. Clients will be allowed to hire attorneys and detectives to present their facts. Doubts on the Court's method of [...]
YC 113.11.01 - YC 113.11.30 Further fighting in Delve this month saw the Goonswarm Federation alliance capture several more stations, taking five from Brick Squad. Morsus Mihi and Brick Squad seem to be drawing their attempt to take hold of parts of Delve to a close, with their activity in the region being far lower than in previous months. Goonswarm scored 1,790 kills through the month, with Delve seeing 15,272 capsuleer vessel losses. Whilst lower than previous months, this level is high in [...]
Y113.02.01 - Y113.02.28 . February was an eventful month in the outer regions. The first two weeks saw what can only be described as a total collapse of the IT Alliance bloc. The alliance was seen to reduce and then altogether cease its attempts to fight back against the invading Deklein Coalition, resulting in the bulk of the Fountain region falling before the end of the 10th, with the last station succumbing to attacking forces on the 15th. Although IT Alliance still holds many stations throughout [...]
Y112.12.01 - Y113.01.13 The most visible event for many this period has been the assault launched on the IT Alliance-controlled region of Fountain. This is being headed up by the Goonswarm Federation and Test Alliance Please Ignore (TEST) alliance, with many other allied groups taking part. Two stations within the region have fallen to the attacking force thus far, in PNQY-Y and 9R4-EF. The assault has seen the fiercest fighting in the region since IT Alliance ousted Pandemic Legion from it last year. [...]
YC 113.10.01 - YC 113.10.31 The situation this month was similar to September; whilst most sovereignty warfare occurred in the Catch region, Delve saw the highest level of ship losses. In Catch, further stations were lost by Against All Authorities (AAA) and their allies to the attackers, though AAA were able to re-secure multiple systems after losing them, namely N-8BZ6, YHN-3K and AOK-WQ. Fighting in Delve has reached new heights, with 20,678 capsuleer vessels destroyed there this month. This is the [...]
Y113.04.01 - Y113.04.30 . The northern war between the Drone Region Forces (DRF) and the Northern Coalition (NC) has continued heating up, with almost all conquerable stations within the Geminate region falling to the attacking DRF. This escalation has seen fighting push on into the Vale of the Silent region, where further stations have changed hands. There is significant speculation that the NC has arranged an organised withdrawal into the key region of Tribute, the home of the Morsus Mihi alliance. [...]
YC 113.06.01 - YC 113.06.30 This month saw a colossal swing in the balance of power within the null security regions, with the group of alliances known as the "Northern Coalition" (NC) almost entirely losing their grasp over their holdings of several years. This sudden collapse has taken place after months of warring with the DRF (Drone Region Forces) coalition, resulting in the regions of Tribute, Branch and Tenal changing hands. The focal point of this collapse was Tribute, which as the home of the [...]
Y113.05.01 - Y113.05.31. This month has again been dominated by the on-going war between the Drone Region Forces (DRF) and the Northern Coalition (NC). After rumours of an organised retreat by the NC from the regions of Geminate and Vale of the Silent with the intent of fortifying the Tribute region, all stations within the largely abandoned regions have fallen to the DRF. The changing hands of these regions has however not been without loss for the NC; the NC-aligned alliances which inhabited them [...]
YC 113.08.01 - YC 113.08.31 August saw a large number of the alliances that make up the Drone Region Forces (DRF) coalition launch an assault on the Against All Authorities (AAA) alliance homeland of Catch. The key systems of HED-GP and GE-8JV have fallen to the DRF, with fighting causing a colossal 19,420 capsuleer vessels and structures to be destroyed by other capsuleers in Catch this month. This level of fighting is the highest seen in the Catch region since CONCORD records began in late YC109, [...]
YC 113.07.01 - YC 113.07.31 This month saw elements of the DRF, primarily NC., Pandemic Legion and Raiden launch an attack on the Goonswarm Federation home region, Deklein. The primary goal is believed to have been to acquire a grasp on as many technetium rich moons as possible due to their immense income potential. The initial launch of the campaign saw limited success; however the attackers were rapidly repelled. This conflict saw Deklein increase in terms of numbers of vessels destroyed from 4,529 [...]
**Y113.01.14 - Y 113.01.31 ** The focal area over the last two weeks continues to be the Fountain region, with pressure mounting on IT Alliance (IT). The key outpost system of 6VDT-H, which was IT's staging area in the region, was subject to an around-the-clock siege by the Deklein Coalition starting on the 27th. The system fell four days later in the afternoon of the 31st, with TEST gaining sovereignty that evening. IT Alliance and its allies did not appear to undertake any large scale efforts to [...]
Y113.03.01 - Y113.03.31 . On-going fighting between the Drone Region Forces (DRF) and the Northern Coalition (NC) over control of the Geminate region saw the fiercest fighting of March, with 19,382 ships being destroyed as a result of conflict between capsuleers. Whilst less than the 25,425 of February this is several times the average seen in YC112 of only 8,002 ships destroyed per month as a result of such activity. The 20th of the month saw a colossal battle take place within the O2O-2X system in [...]
YC 113.09.01 - YC 113.09.30 September saw continued pressure from White Noise, Red Alliance and their allies being put on Against All Authorities (AAA). AAA lost several stations, with a total of 16 stations falling to the attackers this month. Despite the amount of territory exchanging hands, the number of capsuleer ships being destroyed in the process was relatively low, totalling only 8,765 for the month compared to 19,420 in August. Delve however has regained the top spot that it had held for [...]
Ships of EvE, a corporation and lottery event run by T'Amber, has been sold for twenty billion ISK to capsuleer Selene D'Celeste. Ships of EvE is a lottery known throughout New Eden for it's large payouts.
