A new dawn

To tell the truth, I had hit a bit of a rough patch after sitting in Empire for several months.  I had grown tired of the "you must fly this ship with this setup and have two of these ship types available at all times" attitude of many corps, but desperately missed PVP.  After much thought, I came to the realization that pirating would be the perfect match to what I wanted to do.  If I felt the need to sit in the station bar for a month and drink beer, so be it no mandatory ops or ship types or play styles.  It seemed as though I had found a perfect match, in principle at least, implementation was a bit more tricky.

After considering the idea for a while, I made two decisions that shaped my future in the universe. 

1.  I need to learn how to solo.  This fundamental hole in my training was the source of much of my frustration.  If I didn't feel comfortable on my own, then I was tied to a gang and therefore their shiptypes and schedules.  This needed to change!

2.  The Rifter hull is king.  As I began my studies into pirating and solo flying, I quickly ran across the works of a Rifter afficinado named Wensley.  I can't begin to articulate how the information gathered from his works enlightened and inspired my current path.  I highly recommend reading and contemplating the information contained within his pages if you ever plan to be truly effective in solo combat.

So here I am, a new path, new information to digest and practise, and a new thirst for the blood of all those I deem enemies.  Only the future will see how it all pans out, I'm only certain that there will be lots of flames.
