It is with a heavy heart that I announce that after two long years the HMA Flagship was finally the target of a dedicated strike team of gankers. On 2023.04.25, a combined team of Train Wreck. and Safety Set To Red pilots targeted me for destruction. While stepping away to attend to other duties they […]
Boy does time fly when you have the attention span of a cocaine-fueled housefly, as it seems I’ve missed yet another anniversary. As of March 16th 2023, the HMA has been bringing you murder and mining for two whole years. If you’ve been with us from the beginning… Why? If you’re one of our newer […]
Oye M’Beltas, It’s that time of year again. Time to invade Uedama, the Gank Capital of New Eden. With Orca boosts and ECM support it is our intention to once again clean out their belts. As before, there will be prizes for participants who bag themselves some gankers. So bring your mining ships, your gun […]
The most significant obstacle for the HMA has always been getting people to participate. I don’t necessarily mean getting people to join our fleets although that can sometimes be a challenge. What I am referring to is getting people involved and engaged in furthering the growth of our friendly neighborhood cartel. Over the past two […]
Honoring our love of both puns and violence, the HMA is proud to announce that we are no longer performing sanctions of unregulated miners. We will now be performing Hull Integrity Tests, or HITs, to ensure that those mining in and around Hek are doing so safely and responsibly. Although nothing is changing policy-wise, framing […]
The HMA prides itself on being an inclusive community. Everyone is welcome to take part in our fleets as long as they are willing to abide by our rules. So, what do we do with folks who either fail to abide by our rules or refuse to join our fleets? Well, whatever you want to. […]
Oye, m’beltas! If you’re not familiar, The Expanse is a book and TV series chronicling the adventures of the crew of the Rocinante as they navigate the perils of a war-torn solar system. Throughout, one of main drivers of the plot is the oppression of those who live and work in the asteroid belts. When […]
Love him or loathe him, if you’ve spent any amount of time in Hek in the past decade you almost certainly know of him. In truth, this is an acknowledgement long overdue. You see, despite having no formal affiliation and having declined my many attempts to recruit him, he is nonetheless the Godfather of the […]
A time comes in every wannabe cartel boss’ life when he has to admit that things just aren’t working. While I still believe in the business model I tried to rollout for Phase 2, I lacked the motivation, organization, and influence to make it a reality. And so, I am humbly walking back those changes […]
