Another awesome night of blowing sh*t up.
« on: November 05, 2009, 11:33:48 pm »
Er, was my 1st night back in a LONG while. A year mb? Shook off some rust. Was really good getting back in the captains chair. GG's guys. I especially liked that BA where we both lost a DN. I lost sight of the border edge. Was thinking it was gonna be played on a bigger map. Het'ed that DN, u guys like that? Kinda didnt have a choice, lol.

Left me with a tough choice, as I was heading the other way to link up with you on the border.

Should I:

1) HET to follow (in an NCL, with Roms around)
2) circle around and hit somebody hard after they raped you

I opted for 2, and crippled Kroma's DN when they all emptied. Good thing Dax was behind so between us both we could finish him off (Kroma loves that).

That was a very fun game.

First night I think I ever flew a stock D5K.  Was an interesting night of "Gathering Data."

EDIT:  t00l - what would it cost to repair the crippled C7, D5W, and D5KR?  Normal non-field repair.

After we blew up the 3x Fed defenders, my C7 was missing half racks, phasers and a dizzie and was down to 29 power. I still had 7 spares.

My definition of crippled is you'd repair it before putting back on the line, I think all three of us qualified for that..

yaya, I'd surely reapair it before going out again...

But even taking 3x ships off the front to repair is worth the 3x we killed eh?

Kinda sorta, I've been accused of being more of an accountant than a warrior recently . . .

All wars are economic and we killed 21 EP worth or ships in that battle (BCG=10, NCA=6, NCLR=5).  Want to know what the repair cost would be to see what the net loss would be in an actual war.

For tonight's session of "blowin sh*t up," I want to see what can bust the various legal Alliance Carrier Groups.

2.5 EP for the C7, 2 for the D5W, 1.5 for the D5.

I'm gonna totally have to modify my combat behavior. I remember I had this one mission with corbo on a GW or SG server I flew Lyran BCP and he was ISC CCY and I got all my shields stripped off and took no damage but forced him to use 5 tbombs and did some 10 internals. I promptly left the mission, and re engaged him in a different hex feeling my odds were better with him having only 3 tbombs left.

I think that's how you have to look at these battles, instead of stand alone missions... you are on a LONG patrol without the chance for resupply and repair. This is gonna be damned cool.

I think so, a Homeworld assault may take days to resolve but I don't care.  t00l's latest "attack in waves" proposal could have so many battles it'd not be funny.   If for nothing else it'd give us something to do with all the left-over small ships.

I like the wave idea... It allows you to use all your assets and sets up possibilities where smaller ships may be used as speartips and be sacrificed in order to take out a specific ship or force an enemy to use supplies.

Actually you took about 15 internals. I hit you with the PPD first, then the Enveloping torps.

It might not be too bad. If we can get enough people we can fly 2-3 missions at once.

I dont remember taking ANY damage. I hit you with a small phaser blast when u tried to tbomb me and my esg and you exposed the wrong shield... Remember, that was the day you quit the server for like a week cuz I was 'pulling a fast one' with my re-engagement now that u were down 5 tbombs. I thought it was a valid tactic... and no, I didnt drop general shuttles on tool last night.

But my point in that, Corbo, is this is the perfect example of how carry over damage/supplies will affect future engagements. THIS is what makes this new setup so attractive to me... EVERY action will count no matter how little.

I just remember what a brilliant move I thought I was making at the time... drafting u 2x and getting u unsupplied, and how cheesy it really was, but how THAT exact kind of tactic may prove worthwhile in this new direction for an SFC/F&E blend we are attempting. This new approach has so much depth. Whether you scored 15 internals, blah. :P U were smoking that night...

Ok, I FIXED my microphone. Login to TS u asswipes and lets blow sh*t up. 3 of us on already.

The Fed Romulan one was the best (CB, NCA, NCLR versus NHK, SPA+, SPF+).  Both times.

I'm thinking random sh*t, maybe thrown in a base two in an IP game.  Possibly some "Tootsiepop" tests but nothing too organized as it's kind of short notice.

Tonight was fun, especially the Gorn v Romulan  fights.  Best was when my two wings BOTH failed HETs and I had to sacrifice my mauler to save their butts.

Thx DH, your noble sacrifice paid off! It was also noteworthy that both the kills on our side in that match were made by the centurion ftr pilots.

gga!

And after u guys left, tool gave me sum schoolin with his CHC vs my KDWL. I hurt him pretty badly tho. And then we tried to have an SUK vs FNCCf match, but tool crashed and died and I'm calling it a night before he beats me twice in one nite.

later all!

Regarding the Gorn-Rom fights, I want to do some again tommorow as that was fun as hell.  I think our fears of those fights going long are un-founded as in 3v3 you've got more than enough phasers to wear down shields and force agressive flying.

yea, though it would depend on year, the early it is the more likely cloak and castle would happen.

Wow, last night was hardly awesome... heh. But boy did I get myself blown up. My team needs to slap me next time a huge wave of type 4 drones are headed my way and my WW wasn't quite rdy... heh. Was that a record for fastest DN kill?

Never been noobed so many times in one night. I feel awful. Looking for payback tonight. I did have a pretty decent match vs Tus and Corbo with me an Fury. They edged us me thinks with a H-CHC and R-KHK vs our ZBCHf and ZCCHf. That and I think Corbo was fast loading his damned PhG's. Bastard!

13 overloads and a zillion drones kill just about anything.  Your plan would have worked and you would have annihilated us if we "pealed."

Tonight's Gorn on Romulan emulated Base-assault will be a trip, it may even take two night to complete.
