The Lore Behind EVE's New Ship Skins

To say The Scope news video on CCP released on YouTube today was a bit surprising I think is an understatement. We now know the origins of the Super Kerr-Induced Nanocoatings, or SKINS. Would you believe Serpentis technology designed for smuggling operations? The main story of the video tells the story of the Caldari Navy capturing a Serpentis Rhea-class jump freighter, the Seeadler.

  1. Another bit I noticed is that one of the freighter names is the Otago. Making it the second reference to New Zealand I've noticed, the first reference being moas, which show up in a lot of MMOs.
