Prizes for the second round of the Tusker Frigate(/Destroyer) FFA have been announced! After the success of the first event expectations were high, but I'd say the night delivered. Six hours...
The most common mistake that a new player can make on their first trip into low security space is to vastly underestimate the risk that's involved. An equally large number of people set out...
