You read the plot for Revenge of Billy the Kid didn’t you, it turned out to be a documentary.

If only you knew Billy’s REAL parentage, the irony would be that the comparison is apt.

Level 5 missions are in low sec not nul, also your capital will last maybe 2 days running missions in low xD

So I had been trying to jump this puppy and each time I get an error message

Then afterwards I read the following about how they can only jump 3.5ly  
“_Jump Drives have limited jump range based on the ship type and character skills._”

I would like to try to move my super dreadnought capital over a few jumps into the Tama system, I have skilled my alt pilot who is set to Omega and has Cynosural Field Generator t1 fitted along with a full cargo of Liquid Ozone sitting in Tama trying to open the portal.

Spencer is fleet leader and I am waiting to undock and fast jump.

Wait… You think Tama is safer than Maila?

You do know that it’s 4 jumps away from Jita and one of the rather active lowsecs?

You can just map out where you want to go, and jump into a lowsec chain leading to it. If you can’t reach it, chain jump across to it instead of doing it all in one jump. This needs less skills, but I still recommend that you max out Jump Drive Operation and Jump Drive Calibration, the former allows you to actually be able to move after jumping, and the latter for the long distances you want. Keep in mind that dreads can only jump 7 ly with max skills.

I might have to wait for more training as it reads " Max Jump Range: **4.9 lightyears** (Ship: **Caiman** and JumpDriveCalibration: **Level 2** )

Level 2 just finished.

This is scary that you do not know the basics of capitals, you either have only just trained in to one or you have skill injected to reach this level.

I would suggest going back to the beginning and learn the ships or it will be an expensive loss., if you do not know that Caps cannot do High sec then Caps are not for you, you don’t get to gate solo with a cap as you are asking to be ganked.

While taking a lazy day out and about, I had come across a completely empty system just a stone throw from real action.

I don’t think they would mind if I do, so here will be my new home

My next step is working out how to claim this small empty pocket of space.
