Hics are pretty much suicide considering the numbers involved. Your lifespan once that bubble goes up is less than a dictor bubble.

Finally people have an excuse to rat during wartime I guess

I didn't read about those indexes though, so are retrievers and hulks reimbursable now?

It's used in nearly every major doctrine, but bubbling requires some of the situation awareness and knowledge of eve fleet fights mechanics in order to not gently caress up your own fleet at lest. But I guess you know what you doing so yeah, go use dicktors.

It's an in-game thing CCP are doing with some real world science groups to help map/identify types of genomes or something along those lines. Basically it's Citizen Science made into a game, where you get Sisters of EVE Loyalty Points for it as well as a paltry amount of ISK doing so while being bored on a gate camp, sitting in a station or whatever.

Project Discovery can feel like a grind sometimes, but I do it a lot when I'm not doing anything else or not enough people I know are on to roam with, and selling the drugs is a kind of okay way to make money for basically zero risk because they're legal in highsec and sell for 10-20 million apiece.

Hic scripted points are now scrams, they're real good at keeping your fleet from getting teleported by command destroyers. Fly a Hic.

Fingers crossed :pray:

Edit: I just checked my API and it looks like I have around 400mil ISK and 60mil SP so I should be able to have a load of fun.

Dear traitors and bads, we're terribly sorry about the failure of your grand backstab: we're going to spend the next few years tearing each and every one of you to shreds in memory of this bout of hubris. But first, we're going to take your momentum away, your fun away, your pride away, and remind you why inevitably you always fail against us - because we are the meanest, most vicious motherfuckers in the history of this internet spaceship sandbox, and we're only getting nastier with age.

Here's a war tune: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivP1qYG_tLw See you @ 17:00~
