For those of you who don't know (because I update on a geological time scale), I started playing EVE Online a few months ago. It's cool, it's deep, and I'm having a lot of fun with it.

Meet the Gleamfang, a Wolf class Assault Ship. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

Woah! So what do you do in Eve Online?

I'm specializing as a combat pilot, mostly small frigate class ships. That now includes even the advanced classes such as Covert Ops, Assault Frigates, Interceptors, and to a lesser degree Stealth Bombers and Electronic Attack Ships.

So far, most of my time has been spent as a mission runner. Sometimes I assist with mining operations as either an ore hauler or a combat escort. Our corp is now planning to move our operations into low security space where there will be a greater need for anti-pirate escort and overwatch. Out in lowsec you need to worry about the most dangerous kind of pirate, other players.

I've really gotten to like the game over the last few months. It's a sandbox with a lot of depth and breadth. Once you get over the hurdle of the steep learning curve, there's a lot there to dig into.
