The life of Drechlas

For the last week we have been mining a Gallente Ice field. We finally have met the necessary quota and now it’s off back to pocket. The corp started up a project. We are now building our first Rorqual. I hope we can finish it soon. I’m also checking if our corporation has any interest in starting up the production on the new Tier 3 battle cruisers. Within our alliance there is still no corporation proposing to build the Gallentean or the Amarr Tier 3 battle cruisers.

There is literally billions of ISK’s to be made on this. I hope we’ll get the contract and start baking the new ships soon.

It has been a very long while since I last let you know of my adventures. In the mean time a lot of things have changed. After more then a year of radio silence, I’m back!

I’ve been very busy getting several industrial certifications. I’m very close to be the best industrialist available in EVE. I have invested more then 20 million SP in industry alone and currently I’m training up to the Rorqual, a capital industrial ship.

I have tasted my first losses, both in ships as in finances. You learn as you make mistakes and make money for other people. They are hard lessons to learn. Therefor some tips for new capsuleers.

1. Do not flip a yellow can, even if the owner says he doesn’t need the loot.
2. When in a covert ops ship, always warp to a random celestial and cloak up.
3. Always listen to the FC, it will safe your life.
4. When you died, buy a new clone immediately.

Those are the most important tips I can give just on the top of my head.

So the current status is that I’m able to fly the Gallentean Covert Ops Transport called a Viator. I also lost one because I asked my superior where to warp to and he didn’t have a warp point for me. After the initial cloak wore off I got ganked. Luckily we have a Ship Replacement Programme.

We is not the corporation I work for, but the alliance of corporations to which we now belong. Our corporation is a member of the Space Monkey’s Alliance or SMA in short. We operate and work with one of the major powerhouses in the Eve Universe, namely the Goons. We have our own pocket of space where industrial endeavors are stimulated. Of course at some times you gotta go to the front and defend the alliance, in such times I switch over to simple tackle frigates at the moment.

After my current training schedule to enable me to fly the Rorqual I’ll probably hone my drone skills even further. I have already bought the books, I just lack the time to train all the skills for now. There are so many things that I want to do in Eve, so many things to see. This is what the history books mean with ‘The American Dream’, it means endless possibilities and I like it.
