New corporation races into the limelight

  • YC107-05-27

    Electron FluxX and Imiarr Timshae, co-founders of a new corporation calling itself "Eve Race", are two names which could easily become common utterances in the coming months. As the name suggests, Eve Race is dedicated to bringing regular racing events to the capsuleer population. Since the project has only recently been set up, things are still very much in the planning stages. However, Mr. FluxX did grant me some minor details. The races will be divided into three different tiers; Beginner, [...]

    Newly formed Militia calls for Gallenteans to unite

    • YC107-05-23

      The first official press release from the newly formed Eidolon Milita calls on fellow Gallentean citizens as well as others interested to join their cause and to defend the ideals on which the Federation was built on. Following the loss of the Gallentean Titan Molyneux to the Serpentis and the inability of both politicians and the Federation Navy to prevent it from happening, Eidolon Militia, calls on capsuleers to defend "our freedom, our safety, and the ideals we hold dear, not some distant, [...]

      Ushra’Khan restore their pride in Istodard

      • YC107-05-18

        The Ushra’Khan were once again under assault this evening in the Istodard system, from the mysterious pilots who have been hounding them for the past couple of weeks. However this time the outcome was much different to previous encounters. The pilots had not been in the system for long, scouting around for prey before the Ushra’Khan fleet managed to assemble and block the gate which was the scene of the fateful encounter only a few nights previously. When the stage was set the two fleets met, but a [...]

        Amarrian paramilitaries recoil as esteemed admiral leaves their ranks

        • YC107-05-17

          Yesterday was not a good day for the Amarrian Paramilitary organization, the CVA, as it lost one of its most prominent members and Admirals – Golan Trevize. Today I met with Mr Trevize to discuss his reasons for leaving PIE, a corporation he has been a major part of for a number of years. Although he was reluctant to give his reasons for leaving past stating that it was for "personal reasons" due to "unsolvable differences between myself and PIE senior staff". He was, however, was willing to reiterate [...]

          Ushra’Khan under assault from new foe

          • YC107-05-17

            The Ushra’Khan, an alliance of many of the most prominent Minmatar freedom fighter corporations is no stranger to combat. They have been at war with the Curatores Veritatis Alliance for many years, a war which has resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of pilots on both sides. In the past few weeks however, they have found themselves under assault from another group. These pilots, of mixed ethnicity and backgrounds, flying almost exclusively Angel "Tyrant" class battleships have been [...]

              • YC107-05-12

                After two years of lotteries on a bi-weekly basis, BIG has decided to celebrate their 53rd - “2 year anniversary” - round with a special lottery. Regular BIG lotteries only feature one winner, claiming the first prize of 250,000,000 isk. This time however to reflect the special occasion BIG has doubled the first prize and added other prizes, including a variety of Tech II times.

                Mysterious attackers revealed, ring leader uncovered

                • YC107-05-10

                  Mr Frantian Brinor has been a long term employee at Perkone, managing warehouse storage and manufacturing processes for many years. Though sadly as was found out last night, as the body recovered from his ships wreckage was identified as him, he had lead not just Perkone, but everyone astray. He has been positively identified as the man behind the mysterious ships that have been plaguing most of The Forge for nearly two months now, causing innumerable deaths. A man who has lied to countless citizens [...]

                  The Story of Ascendant, Xetic and the infamous Five (Part 2)

                  • YC107-05-07

                    What struck me during the interviews with both Yoristar and Chowdown is that both commented on a meeting that happened between Five and Xetic, they however do disagree on who started the negotiations and what exactly it was about. Chowdown said the following on the matter: "A Xetic leader approached us for a conversation to do a deal with us regarding the future of Xetic, what he proposed was hopeful at best. This brought an end to our talk, however he was talking for a united Xetic but after the [...]

                    The Story of Ascendant, Xetic and the infamous Five (Part 1)

                    • YC107-05-07

                      Ever since the announcement was made that several corporations were leaving the Xetic alliance, everybody has been asking the same question: why? I was lucky enough to arrange several meetings with leading officials from several involved parties. I interviewed Chowdown and Smith both from Shinra, and thelung198 from Arcane Technologies. Both these corporations belong to a group of corporations known as the Five. I also talked to Yoristar from the corporation 911, belonging to the Xetic alliance, and [...]

                      Piecing together the puzzle - contraband trading

                      • YC107-05-03

                        After several busy nights in the Nonni and Jita systems, where large quantities of contraband have changed hands, speculations grow as to who might be the driving force behind these purchases. Among the contraband obtained are drugs, slaves and DNA samples, giving new strength to suspicions about their use in a drastic new research project. So far only two freelance traders, Kerio Ekoena and Leiara Xjenion have been positively identified as buyers, supposedly working for a third party corporation. [...]

                        Marauders Sweep through Providence and Catch

                        • YC107-05-03

                          Late yesterday evening at 10pm EVE standard time, a fleet of what have been described as ‘Marauders’ were reported to have been probing defences across the Providence and Catch regions. Military analysts have described the actions against pod pilots as ‘more in line with probing techniques rather than that of true acts of piracy’, Marauder attacks have been reported throughout the regions and a number of industrial ships have not reported in from their transport routes. The main sightings of these [...]

                          Mysterious attacks draw closer to home

                          • YC107-05-02

                            In a further turn of events, ships, which had formerly been appearing within the Ihatalo constellation near the Paala system, re-appeared last night much closer to the central Hub systems within the region. The perpetrators of the act are again the mysteriously named “liosH riesunS” corporation, who have been randomly attacking pilots an pirates such as Kyogen Steiner for weeks now. Last night they attacked again near the Osmon system, without provocation and again CONCORD ships took no action to [...]

                            A new breed of alliance emerges from the freelancers in EVE

                            • YC107-05-02

                              Yesterday the Genesis region, home of CONCORD and the widely accepted centre of civilised space, played host to events far from usual, even for this heavily trafficked region of space. Converging from all over the known universe, ships flocked to the CONCORD Assembly station to celebrate the formation of a new alliance. An alliance which, according to its founders will allow pilots to “choose their own destiny”, as was announced by senior alliance officials. This alliance calls itsself the FLA, or the [...]
