Stop trying to greentext. It's not happening. This is not 4chan *though sometimes I struggle to see the line*

So they opened into you or, I'm assuming, a wandering wormhole from you to them?

Nice kills, Bob too, has sent us from Wormholes into Null this past week to destroy these pilots unfit to own capital ships.

Break out the 2Bil Bhaals, or bring probes and as many dreads as you can tends to work.

They are new-ish to wh's i believe and one of there scanners must have accidentally warped to their static which happened to open up into us

We just had our first escalation gank last Sunday.



It's a good feeling, isn't it?

Can you hear them? They are calling to us. It is beautiful. http://thegreattichim.wordpress.com/
