For the last several months I have been blasting through space in my own personal gunship; fighting pirates, making profits, and getting killed only to have my consciousness transferred to a new clone so I can do it all again. While I have flown many different ships and currently use a variety of them with all different purposes, my primary ship of late has been the Drake (pictured below).
The Drake is a Battlecruiser (ship design between a battleship and a cruiser) and is of Caldari (one of the 4 Empires in Eve) make. The drake is an interesting mix of long range missile barrages and heavily tanked fighter (from other MMOs). I guess it is important to mention here that I have never been much of an MMO player preferring RTS and FPS games over the standard RPG style of most MMOs. However EVE has grabbed me by the horns and hooked me hard. Its got action, adventures, space pirates and plunder (I'm the one doing the plundering), and all manner of different things to get my attention. If any of the multitude of readers here suffer from the addiction known as EVE as well, you can hit me up in game @ Huron Tekitsu (Main) or Noble Huron (Alt). While my primary character flies the drake, my Alt is current working toward the big ship pictured in the first Pic on the top of the page. It is called an Orca and is 1 Part mobile strip miner, 1 part oil taker, 1 part 747, and all one awesome capital ship. The reason I chose that picture however is because of the little ship next to it, called a Retriever. The Retrieve is a neat little mining barge and is the first stop on the road to be able to pilot an Orca. I just reached a training point where I can fly a Retriever, seems I have a lot longer to go, huh?
Well I hope everyone is well and I promise I will have some pics of painted minis for you soon. With a deadline looming and 50pts of Warmachine to finish I should be finishing large swaths of minis here over the next few weeks.
More as I have it.
