				Just curious-since ships aren't worth anything on AOTK2 are we going
to have a good old fashioned smack talk kill thread going?
Or are you all afraid of having me post how I smacked your ship around for
2 minutes before putting you out of your misery?
			 
			
			- 
				roffles. i will poon u. 
			
 
			
			- 
				I cant start one... Without fail every single one of my kill threads gets locked. Stupid admins.

				HEY  THATS A PERSONAL ATTACK AND NAME CALLING... ADMINS!

				What's the matter with you? You just ruined this threads chance at getting locked. Shame.

				What does stupid mean?
			 
			
			- 
				1. Slow to learn or understand; obtuse. 
2. Tending to make poor decisions or careless mistakes. 
3. Marked by a lack of intelligence or care; foolish or careless: a stupid mistake. 
4.Dazed, stunned, or stupefied. 
5. Pointless; worthless: a stupid job.

				6. Admins who lock kill threads.

				7. Honey-do lists
Yay for having a weekday off work!!!!!
not.
			 
			
			- 
				Mat, we have a saying in the south. "If mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy." Therefore honey-do lists are NOT stupid.

Honey-do lists with a page bottom are indeed NOT stupid.  ;D
Mine is more of a honey-do manifesto.

				Maybe if you'd actually do the stuff on the list, you might find the bottom, rather than doing nothing and letting it get longer. :P

				Well I don't know about a kill list....but since I don't see anyone else posting one since the start of the server here goes....I have killed Mutilator deep striking in rom space on a klingon hex with a base...killed hydran Masterblaster near a rom planet in the middle of the map...killed an isc fa frey xc in same hex near a rom planet in middle of map....I know this doesn't count for sh*t but what the hell...I am having a blast. Thank you all for making my day :)............. Reejr
			 
			
			- 
				
killed an isc fa frey xc in same hex near a rom planet in middle of map
That is worth alot... woofles.
I jumped Dib I think and killed him :P 
Well he blew himself up... but he was almost there. 
			 
			
			- 
				Well never really got much fun posting my kills (ok maybe a few times way way back I did but not lately), instead I'll post my 
THEY KILLED ME LIST
been Killed 2x so far but only 1 was really legit
A) Jakle and I (D7C and KR ) Jakle got hurt bad and went down -- I followed shortly afterwards..
(sorry I forget who we were up agaisnt might have been bearsalyer/DH/762 a combination of two of those guys
b) Ugh last night nasty ass death due to lag...A20risky in a ISC Ca vs my KRC... had a host left message at begining and we didnt worry to much about it-- game starts up and we play -- Hell i was taking damage when I didnt see weapons hit me -- I was taking phaser damage from long range thur shields -- then all of a sudden I find myself in tractor from range 20 and down I go -- this game was so bad I actaully went back to view the film and see what the hell was gonig on -- the film showed a few things I didnt see in  the game -- ie film showed that his ship was jumping to the side and that is how his phaser did the damage from a down side shield where as in my game view it was going thru the rear shild which was up..very glad I didnt call the other guy a cheater or anything -- pays to just watch the film afterwards and see what happens..but damn those lag jumps are nasty .... was being hit with weapons I didnt even see..
C) The more I think about it I might have died a 3rd time when I ran into some Hydran fighters and got nailed bad -- was using the F1 overview and was panned out so far that I didn't even see my ship getting close to the fighters untill those cannon took my engines down to 23 
Anyways having a GREAT time on the server so far and glad to see no bitching or whinning -- hope that keep us..

				Been Killed twice so far.   Once in an  H-LC with FPF-Palidin (F-CC) fighting Kreug and Kaz (both in D7Cs)
Kreug and I wer both Crippled and parked next to each other, we both SD'd and I'm not sure who took the out who.
Died again in an H-LB with t00l on my wing.   We had got a Host left but decided to try fighting 3 Guys in the Asteroid belt anyway.   I, um . . . ., Kinda ran into way too many Type-IVs
			 
			
			- 
				I have not been killed yet!!
;D ;D
			 
			
			- 
				The AI killed me in my F5C on the first day...
Hey - I was on the Rom border, and my damn Rom AI wings cloaked and threw me to the wolves!
Lost my D7C to t00l and DH (WHO RUN'S BARTERTOWN!!!)...I am blaming this on the monotony of repeated AI missions lulling me in to a stupor - that and Duck was sleeping on the job and not telling me what to do.  After 5 years, you'd figure the guy would know that if he doesn't tell me what to do, I'm going to fly like crap.....
I think that's it though....
Oh, and I was forced on off the map by Mutilator and the Lyran Secret Weapon (aka TT), whose use of the diabolical 'NEWFIE DYALUP CONNEKSHUN' device vaporized by two wings and left me alone to face two L-CC's....
			 
			
			- 
				
I, um . . . ., Kinda ran into way too many Type-IVs
This from the man who says drones are virtually useless in a PvP match.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
Yeah, this guy cussed me out for flying H-LB and getting killed by K-D5Ds.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

.   I, um . . . ., Kinda ran into way too many Type-IVs
Now- and just so we're absolutley clear on this- those were the SPEED 16  [/size] Type-IV's?
The ones that fly along at   SPEED 16  [/size].
I'd actually hope they weren't the  SPEED 16  [/size] drones, becasue that would
really work against your claim of not needing a DNH to survive in this dangerous game.
Oh won't someone please tell me there's a screenshot... preferably with t00l ship's sitting there gutted alongside him, but either way I'm good really.
			 
			
			- 
				Jakle may have a film of those drones if you really want I think he logged off not to long after that game -- PM TODAY before he gets home to check his films if you want the copy ...
To be honest you two were doing well -- up till that mistake --we were a little frustrated with CO-ORDINATION -=
Jakle and I (Rom_Duck) were on TS -- Reejr in the D6DB wasnt -- remember thats why I asked if team chat worked..
Anyways I give you two credit for two issues -- sticking around to fight a 3v2 game -- and for flying in those rocks -- that was the same map Dizzy and I had --  Would/Could have been a very interesting match up if you hadn't got hungry and decided heavy drones would make a good dinner -- I am guessing you screwed up on PD issues like tractors and PD phaser -- god knows I do from time to time
All good fun see ya next match up

That WAS a great Match! 
I killed you!  :P
Got Paladin in his CC with my D7C later in a 1v1, and got toasted last while deepstriking by...by...*grrr*
Some Hydran flying an LB...srry, you know how it is after baking in the sun all day followed by a couple of icey beers... :P
			 
			
			- 
				TT and I in L- DD's  kill Rom Mrouge day one while he was deep striking one of our bases.
I have been killed a few times on deepstrikes. Those Rom battle stations are a B'otch    :banghead:   
Jakle D7C, RomDuck KR and I think Mrouge D6D? gang banged me while deep striking ridgehead two. Another brave Klingon took out my L-CC  in a drag back deepstrike with Dizzy. 
Server is great lots of action keep it coming!   :dance:
			 
			
			- 
				I downed a Hydran base on day 1 of the server with an I-DD.
...with a Z-BC AI assistant ;D
			 
			
			- 
				He-he.... 3 kills so far.... been run off in a 3 player vs me & 2 AI mission.
Run off two players.
But my favorite was after deep striking 10 bases the other morning... I ran into Kurok, in the last hex before I got back to friendly space....
We came in and savaged each other.... bloody.... like a rare steak.
My F-CC AI & my LB attacking his D7C and his AI D6.
Well.... I got pwned by the D6 with lots of help from Kurok.  But he went down first. ;D
Then my AI proceeded to kill his AI... ship lost... mission won... tactical victory, eh?
			 
			
			- 
				762 must have been drinking to much Scotch on the Bridge of his H-LB. In My Z-DF I took him out. :o
Well thats my one PvP victory this server. Now back to my regular duty as a moving Target Drone for the Alliance and Coalition forces.  ;D
			 
			
			- 
				I have to get into a PVP fight. So, I have yet to be killed. ;D
			 
			
			- 
				Great match the other day.
Gorn DNE (me) and Fed CC (Braxton)
vs
Klingon D6D (Mrogue) and Rom KR (RomDuck)
Braxton and I managed to kill Mrogue's D6D and ran off RomDuck.
Wonderful match guys!!   Sure, we had you on ship size, but you guys threw everything but the kitchen sink at us.    I would not expect less from the KHH.   I have always enjoyed battling you guys whether in the PBR league or on a SFC-OP server and this match was no exception.
 :thumbsup:  Salute!!  :thumbsup:
			 
			
			- 
				I destroyed MasterBlaster's H-LB  with my L-CF  was an excellent hard fought game.

Yeah, I forgot to mention that too. *snicker*
			 
			
			- 
				bad night, lost a F-CC+ and an H-LB (I'm MasterBlaster).
But I nabbed an I-CAW in a Ranger  ;D
			 
			
			- 
				I lost my F5c Vs F-CC (braxton)   :banghead: :gg:
			
 
			
			- 
				yea Bear that was one of the most savage battles i have been in. Was fast and dirty and one heck of a blast.
<S> Untill next time.

That's our Bearslayer!  :thumbsup:  Missing this campaign is killing me, but its fun to read the reports, keep it up guys!
			 
			
			- 
				I can understand the D7c but..
How can you possibly get pwned by a D6?
Isn't that like against the laws of nature?
			 
			
			- 
				Muttilator and Dfly(Dfrog) took out MasterBlaster's H-LB  and his ai helper,   good try and nice run, you actually made it to the line before blowing up.
			
 
			
			- 
				
I have not been killed yet!!
;D ;D
Get on the server!!    I'll take care of that for ya!!   ;D  ;D
			 
			
			- 
				Busy day, letsee
got killed dead by MRogue (lag jump and tractor) 
Jumped some Hydran (uhmm name escapes me..why can't peeps use their own names grr)
Managed to kill Komodo, who ripped the crap out of my deepstriking ship
before he died.
Some nameless hoser then jumped my crippled ship, and after suffering internals himself (for shame) managed to 
make me SD. 
EDIT : Also managed to annoy Fed RM enough for him to plead for /ignore channel to be included.
          Not an altogether bad day.
			 
			
			- 
				Caught Mutilator (L-CF) deepstriking in hydran space.   I had my Gorn DNE.   He put up a valiant fight but my ship advantage paid off in the end.
VGG.   I am glad to help make your trip home much quicker.
 :thumbsup:  Salute!!   :thumbsup:

Well I kept trying to jump you the other night in my MIGHTY DF. but for some reason I could not draft you. ;D
FEAR THE DRONE........... well you can fear the drone in a few years ;D
			 
			
			- 
				
Let's see.... the game so far.
Match 1
Met MaudDib in his D6-D and some AI Klink heavy frigate in my G-vCA along with my AI Fed FFC.  With a slow-drone D6D vs. a G-vCA, the odds are exceedingly in my favor.  Odds are I won't even be damaged.  But, having G-torps, I have virtually no chance of killing him if he decides to leave.  Well, 'Dib's courage is strong and would have nothing to do with running!  Not even after I'd crippled most of his weapons but left him with enough power to make his escape.
"Come and get me, you fool!"  he screamed.  Spoken like a true Klingon!  He definitely has the heart for the role.  He killed my AI, I killed him, and then when I turned on his AI the game crashed.  
Match 2
Met and defeated a20risky's I-CAW and some AI  "thingy" in my G-vCA with another AI FFC..   A relay, really fun match surrounded by dust clouds.  Again, my AI died first.   I got the better of the plasma ballet and killed a20risky, but he managed to tease out a weasel with a volley that would have been devastating if real, and so hit me Th a final good plasma strike that wiped out several weapons and dropped my front shield.  Then I had to suffer the ignominy of running through the dust clouds with no front shield in order to avoid the AI's plasma.  Eventually I killed the AI too, but it really managed to irritate me for a while!
Match 3
a20risky decides for a little payback, and this time he brings Chuut with him.  That's another I-CAW and a L-CF vs. my G-vCA.  I decide that discretion is the better part of valour, and so after an initial pass I book for the border.   You know something, these maps are huge!  LOL.   Chuut's repeated disruptor fire manages to drop my rear shield and score an internal or two before I get off the board.  (I love the big maps, by the way.  It always bugged me that, in space, the map has borders at all.)
It's been a load of fun so far.  Let's keep it up!
-S'Cipio
			 
			
			- 
				Uh, Scipio? Those glowing diffuse things are ion storms, not dust clouds.
			
 
			
			- 
				*sigh* Well let's see.
Killed Soreyes in what was I think the first PvP of the entire server. LN vs DF - I flew great drone defense, probably because I was flying a POS. My drone defense skeelz went rapidly downhill thereafter, as will be seen.
The aforementioned 2v2 with myself and DH vs Jakle and Duck was fun.
Killed a20risky twice in a Templar. He tried to overrun me. I let him. Overrun a Templar??
Then there was Hexx. Ugh.  ::) I guess he owed me some payback after years of abuse. Seriously, he got me good, I should have anticipated the threat given it was a marine ship but I didn't. I was well and truly pwnt. BUT....the server is still young. :)
Had two very fun fights vs TraumaTech. First fight was LB vs ??? (CC I think), second was LB vs CF. Both of us had 2 AI's each time (so much for AI stripping). Both times I unloaded on his AI early, had him chase me while I tried to reload, and killed him in the end. Despite the lack of AI stripping they were both good fights.
And then the coup de grace, my LB vs Soreyes' DF, when in my overconfidence not only did I fail to notice we has going slow enough to run a level 4, but panicked like a girl after getting grabbed and did everything I shouldn't have done.
Despite some setbacks :mischief:, it's been fun so far.
			 
			
			- 
				Add Josh to the kill list....
I-CAW against my H-LB, GG Josh.
			 
			
			- 
				I get added to the list, along with Green.  Duck in his KCR with a FLG ai  took on Green in a Kzinty BF and me in an ISC CAW.  I warned Green that Shadowlord loves to push people into rocks(ie DIZZY) but Green got tractored, and dragged into a ROCK quite early. That was funny.  That AI was a thorn in my side the whole game, costing me shielding slowly, while using up any extra weapons I could afford, without draining my ship too much with that KCR on my butt, side, front, etc.   Twice Duck took runs at me, I hurt him in the first run, he got me in a corner in the second and with AI help hitting all those mines he placed, I was getting the worst of it.  VGG, was fun. been waiting for some PvP, even if it cost me a few thous.
			
 
			
			- 
				Woot! Got my second kill tonight.  First was against LordHelios a few days ago, then tonight I got the win against Dib.  Nothing fancy, he was flying a D6DB and I a Gorn CC.  He did manage to tractor me twice, but each time I saw it coming and already had my repel working.  I managed to wear him down with superior Gorn Phasers and a few plasmas.  Well fought Dib.

Well that was after you stripped away all my shields, weapons, Marines, ect...ect.  But then again my ship never had any Shields ;D
			 
			
			- 
				
Killed a20risky twice in a Templar. He tried to overrun me. I let him. Overrun a Templar??
I only recall one instance of my doing that.
			 
			
			- 
				Sorry, I know we had two fights. I can't recall the exact details of the other.
			
 
			
			- 
				
Well that was after you stripped away all my shields, weapons, Marines, ect...ect.  But then again my ship never had any Shields ;D
Putting power into shields on a Kzinti DF would kinda defeat the purpose of flying that ship, right?
			 
			
			- 
				Me (Gorn DNE) and Icehawk (Fed CF)
vs
Rom-Duck (KCR) and KHH Jakle (D7C)
I well fought match.    As usual the KHH flew in very tight formation and were very pesky.   After Icehawk practiced his proxy photon skills on them for awhile, the KHH got a couple of good hits on Hawk's rearshield.   They forced us to border a little later and suckered me into letting them HET pass me and grab Icehawk. (which he survived from, but not from their pouncing on him shortly after)
I was just in process of trying to tractor him off map when they did the coup de grace on him.   Big meanies!!   ;)
Well fought.   
 :thumbsup:  Salute!   :thumbsup:
			 
			
			- 
				Tomcat'n and I kill ran Duck out in his KRC while his wing man was caught and killed in his D6D.
 
I also killed a Romulan KRC on a planet assault I drafted great AI one mirak ship even had a MIRV   :-X
Great games all keep em coming.
			 
			
			- 
				The USS Argent Dawn strikes again, like the Bismarck in WWII, she stirkes fast and hard.
Todays additions to the list were KBF-Soth and Lear.  First, Soth's K-D6DB was captured, which was shortly followed by Lear's R-KRC being nuetralized.
VGG To both of you.
			 
			
			- 
				Well, took Duck out of his KRC twice... sort of.... H-TEM vs R-KRC.  I towed him off after some lag out thing where I couldn't damage him anymore.... not that he could do much at that point. ;)
Then the rematch with me in a H-LB ended with the destruction of Duck's KRC for sure this time. 
GG's both times.
			 
			
			- 
				Yea first game showed him leavning the map for my game -- second game he got in a nice hard hit and down i went..
			 
			
			- 
				if you all would just stop running around and repeling me at levels 3 or 4!!!
i mean who runs around with a repel that high?
heh...scardy cats..
gg's to all...
			 
			
			- 
				KBF-Kurok gave me a VERY good battle last night K-D7C versus F-CF.   
You truely have mastered Saberdancing, had I not been in the CF I think you would have beaten me <S>
			 
			
			- 
				lesse... 762 & I tag teamed Duck to take another KRC off of him.  *shakes head* when is he gonna learn?
Killed Chuut's cheesy hex flipping DF+ with a LB.  Then I SD'd my LGE on his nose when he tried to capture me with his DNL.
			 
			
			- 
				Myself in a ISC CC and Chuut in a Lyran BF  jumped Methanerider in a LB.   Nice of you to stick around long enough for us to catch and destroy you. gg
			
 
			
			- 
				My VERY first mission against two of the best Coalition players with a mere destroyer (F-vDD? - the starting ship) resulted in me having an infinitely high damage given to damage received ratio!!!  Couldn't finish them off though :(
A more precise way of putting this is that my two expert teammates engaged them while I stayed WAY back at max proxy range launching two at a time, eventually causing a total of 8 damage, receiving 0.
In fact that's a lie anyway because at the last second of me leaving the map they fired a range 30+ phaser volley and did fair damage to my rear shields ;)
Besides that pseudo-engagement I have yet to fight a human, probably to the health of my crew.  Stand by for further battle reports.

One down, 11 more for him to tie Kroma's record.

It was a F-CS+
"forces" makes them sound dangerous, the real problem was my terrible mistakes - I had blasted a good chunk out of his #6 shield, and was preparing an HET-photon shot at it (he was chasing me at about range 6 since the edge of the map snuck up on me), EXCEPT WHEN I HET'd I DIDN'T TURN FAR ENOUGH AND NEVER GOT THE ANGLE TO SHOOT THE PHOTONS!!!  So I took some phasers and plasma for NOTHING!!!
Thanks to Federation resilience, however, that in fact hardly damaged me outside of my confidence which was hovering around zero as it was my first engagement..
At least he was slow for a bit and I opened up the distance again to fully charge overloads at almost top speed the whole way thanks to charging normals, then converting to overloads one at a time, so he had minimal armaments vs my fully armed ship while attempting to chase.  Except I'm out of safe HET's... so I tried a emer-decel upon consultation of my helpful teammates, who probably assumed I could HET or let him close a bit more FIRST... what happened is I took a full phaser volley (no plasma cause I weaselled) and he turned away behind me enough to stay out of arc of photons :(
Then I got to chase him with full overloads as he laid mines everywhere, eventually using T-bombs which left me some free hull shots.
I forget what happened after all this, but one thing I do remember, at no point, regardless of range, could I see his weapon status!  They all showed empty so I was trailing him very close and we were both going slow, then I do a H&R at which point he magically has charged phasers and blasts me to all hell....self destruct initiated :(
Was a great battle and especially great fun.  I can't help but find humor in the fact that my two crucial photon passes resulted in me NOT firing any photons!  Damn Fed training grads get dumber every year...
EDIT: By the way, kidding about the "forces" comment, a20risky is a dangerous foe! :)

				And before he gets here
-Yes t00l has vindicated himself by killing
my DWLP with his RN (actually his fighters)
It was an amusing contest with my Lyran AI DD attempting an overrun of the RN, followed by an Overrun of the 
Fed AI FFE (the gat one) 
After scoring more internals on t00ls RN than I was taking I tried to get a pass off to tag the AI and instead got
hit with two wings of Stingers. 
Ouch

				Growing pains for FSD 
First off like to apologize to Braxton for our ignorance and calling a bugged mission when TT's ship fired drones and SP on my BCPp. We did not realize that it was captured by Braxton and thought the mission became bugged.
After explanation from Braxton of what happened we will endeavour to be more cognosant of these things. Again sorry and well played Braxton.

I have to say thanks to you guys.  That was quite possibly the best match I have had in the past two years, and I thank you for being honorable enough to SD your ship.  I am sure that the situation will be reverse in a couple game years.

				Adding to the list... Agave's H-DE took down Dizzy's L-BCPp while my F-CS+ took all the damage.... 
We evenly split the kill on a Kitty in a Z-CD.... sorry, can't remember his name...
And I played bully on Green's Z-DF+ in the same CS+.
			 
			
			- 
				Agave should be ashamed of flying that PoS cheese ship. I knew if I let those 5x PhG's get within 5k I'd die. But sure nuff... Just like a crack addict on drugs needing another fix, I couldnt resist that crippled CS and took a nasty broadside trying to get a better shot off to kill it... was a gg. But I think you guys were just suckering me the whole time.
I really dislike servers that penalize the casual players. J'inn, please make all ships cost 1 pp. I probably wont afford another BC. 
I'd like to know who came up with these sh*tty ship prices and the reasoning for it. Please explain why the casual players are being crapped on. It's a nutters paradise here. Casual players are being discouraged in PvP from flying aggresively. Explain the 'Fun' of the fun server here.

The ship prices were designed specificly to piss you off and leave the game.  Is it working?
You're out of your mind.   This is a 4 week server

you know, you are unfit for being a server admin. Really. You need to go take sensitiveity training or something. But I'll give you plus karma for being consistent in your behavior.
			 
			
			- 
				Actually, I thought it was kinda funny, hehe.  :D
You two need to take valium or catnip or look at orion green chicks or something . . .
But, the ship prices are a little out of whack with the BCHs being 6 times the cost of a CA.  
For example, the frogs have an interesting choice:
I-CCY at 30K or I-CAY at 6K?  24K difference for just one PPD and 4 power is mucho expensive.

Well, here's the deal. Say what you want, it's a Freedom of Speech thing, BUT don't break the forums rules.  Seems simple enough, but hard to do. Some people are better than others at being rhetorically hyperbolic and a little hysterical without crossing the line.
If I was a forum admin. here, I'd probably give you warning rap about personal attacks. 
Just agree to disagree and move on.  I do it all the time with lotsa people in this community.

				Had some really great battles last night..2v2 Sorh and I were able to vanquish the Lyran force of Mutilator and Warp. Soth's mauler ship was killed, but I was able to exact revenge with my KE on both of the opponents. 
Twenty minutes later I had a vicious 1v1 versus ShropShireSlasher. It was simply amazing to see EVERY SINGLE hit and run raid of his destroy their target. I want to know what Klingon Drill Sergeant has changed sides! He got me down to about 60% hull before I was able to repair/recharge my plasma R, pop a risky HET (under 80% chance) , and sock him for 50 points. He got close to the map but the KE's impressive power curve let me catch him to finish the job.
Great games all hope for more soon.

			- 
				Aye that was a fun match. 
Getting some great PVP on the server after Warp and I reinforced Lyran interest in the north high command called us to action on the Hydran Mirak front. Our first action had 762 in a dred attempt an unsuccessful space dock raid. His ship was over whelmed with drones from my DF and the space docks. I am sure Warp got a few good ESG hits in too with his BCPp. GG 762
I lost my dwlp to skyflyer this morning marines start coming across near the end so I ordered self-destruction to avoid capture. GG 
I upgraded to a cwlp and met Gornaid in an HCC+ was a great match his ship fell after a hard fight. GG
Looking forward to more. Keep it coming!  :gg: :gg: :gg: all

				Masterblaster drafted me with my MDC while he was in a Hydran RN.  we were both hexmunching with light cruisers.  was a GG DH, but the Hydran went down in a volley of missiles after dropping 3 of my shields and doing minimal internals.
			
 
			
			- 
				
What...... Braxton's not claiming his kill of my DF with his DNL ::)
I don't feel the need to post any more DF+ kills.  If I did, this thread would be about 2 pages longer than it is right now.  You Kitties just come flying in and hope that you will get your 5 or 6 internals on me before I pound you out of existance so you can come back into the hex sooner.

				Aside from my slew of lesser kills, today was a bad day for the Coalition and Alliance. I chased down Bear's DNL and wasted it, Rom Duck's CON suffered the most humiliating defeat a DN could EVER possibly suffer, so funny, here's the film (http://home.satx.rr.com/spiderwebs/Ducks_3way_kaboom.rec), you wont believe it...  (revenge is so so sweet), and then 762's HR and Ice's CVA fall.
What a hell of a day! I love this game. 
			 
			
			- 
				LOL 
Well what dizz didnt say is I was trapped behind the lines after a deep strike and faced 2-1 odds yes my CON went down when an AI become captured and started to attack me -=- considering my lack of reparis and marines I think that I flew rather well ..
However unlike dizzy I wont go and gey my crying towel for the next few days -- instead I will keep flying and having fun 
GG all
Duck
err dizz want a copy of the film where you got towed into a rock I do have it if you or anyone else is interested...

				MRogue had a bad day...after having escaped Dizzy and chuut(i think) (also winging with duck in his once shiney dread)who were kind enough to let me know where to intercept him,and also alert me the fact he had no more marines or sp's.IN OTHER WORDS,I GOT LUCKY FIGHTING A GREAT PILOT  :)   i had but to land a couple of marines,onto his D5D, with my CWLP..............gg MRoque
			
 
			
			- 
				Sure duck, post the film, but hitting a rock was a 5 year milestone for me, its big time serious. I tried to quit, cuz I was serious. But the thrill and rush of this game... it's too hard to ditch without outside influence for me. Leaving for a whole week, while sounds quite pitiful for most, its most pitiful for me... Gosh I suk. I just lack the willpower. I need my wife to take the puter away and then mb, hehe.
Now, bout that CON that Duck incorrectly stated, the Rom AI did not get captured...

ok maybe I'll stop pushing you into the rocks -- and on your kill you had a wing and I could not run due to the Deepstrike rule -- maybe I should say I wont count that but instead I will say GG on them all..

(oh and lets not forget you SD on the 3rd loss to avoid me pushing you into yet another rock!!)

				Earlier tonight, scratch 7oo|s H-DN. Thats 4x DN kills in one day for me. I think that is a dyna record...

Yeah I'm sure your 2 wingmen who rescued you from Stinger death share no claim in the kill. 
 :lame:
			 
			
			- 
				Had a great 2v1 at 5am. Myself in an H-HR, Hunter-s in an NCL+, vs Chuut in a BCPp. For those who don't know Hunter-s is Ternado's son, and he woke his old man up at 5am for tactical advice.  ;D
He flew extremely well for a n00b, a credit to his trainers. Chuut ended up leaving the map.

 :lame:
Fact is that while my wings were 30k behind me, I tractored and shot the hell out of your DN by myself and got you down to half hull and I lost maybe, what, a couple of hardpoints? After you finally broke the tractor and launched your fighters, you were threw. So what if my wings mopped up those fighters? The dynamic was this, if they wernt there I couldnt have done what I did not knowing I'd have had backup. So they were integral to insuring your demise. The only question is, where was your escort?
Fact, of the 4x DN kills last night 3 of them could have easily turned tail and disengaged. But they didnt. And of course, you mention I had wings to assist me, well of course I did and in no small part should they not take credit themselves. I am not their spokesperson, however. They may stake their own claim, and their contribution to these DN Kills are no less important than my own.
But who cares about the details. Fact is, I was involved in 4x DN kills last night. Beat that.  :P
			 
			
			- 
				Well t00l was involved in two DN kills......
<Snicker>
			 
			
			- 
				Preposterous Dizzy. Perhaps in your complete ignorance of tactical reality you convinced yourself that 8 Stinger 2's at range 0 would not have popped your mighty CWLP like a clay pigeon. Without your TWO wingmen to back you up you would have been painted on the side of some Hydran fighter jock's cockpit, and been laughed off like the pretender that you are.
Oh and half hull? NOT.
Stop being such an asshat glory hound, and give your wingmen the credit they deserve.
			 
			
			- 
				No. They were there for me so I could take the kill. They STOLE the finishing shot, which was mine, and now I'm going to paint their hull colors all over some rock somewhere... No one steals from me!
			
 
			
			- 
				OMG u r teh l4m3.
			
 
			
			- 
				Well Dizz -- I will give you credit for a bunch of good games the last few days..
Hell I can't even remember the exact number now maybe 5?-7? games..
And with that being said I great games the other day in two seperate mission by my wings.
They covered up my mistakes and kept dizzy and his wing off my arse while I reloaded.
KBF_Standarte (D5D)and KBF_Kaz(D5L).. Not the easiest games to play when were not using the same voice comms. I don't think that I have flown much if at all with either of these two guys -- probably never vs another human and hats off to them for keeping my big arse Romulan boat alive. (while pecking away at our ee
GG by all involved. 
			 
			
			- 
				Got drafted by the ISC Wacko, I was in a D5L mith an md5 escort. He was in a CLY with a Lyran escort. I couldnt keep up with my wingman while loading dizzies, and went in for an attack run on his escort. After my sweep I target back to the ISC and my sensors report 73 internals on him! Watch out for those maulers guys!
I have to give credit to the a.i. for this kill, to run in on 2 S-torps takes alot of courage.

				Mrogue and I vs Frey and Dizz
Hell of a game after one hour we went in a little to far on my call and made a pooch of it..
Dizz frey and our team all flew great.. was a fantastic game... I got hurt bad and rogue sacrificed his ship so I could make it off..
GG all hope we can all get a few like that a day...
Duck
			 
			
			- 
				Oh yeah! Nailbiter! Rocks and ION storms. Fun fun fun.
That match was the kind of game you always want to have and seldom get. Win lose, doesnt matter. GG to u and mrogue. It was an hour of intense combat and strategic manuevering. 
And gg to Frey who 3x alsmost steered me into a rock. Duck, beacuse Frey and I stuck together like a ho bitch and pimp in winter is the only reason u got away in the end... Frey didnt want to see me get in another unfortunate rock incedent so elected to stay with me and not chase you... He's such a sweetie~! :-*

				Had alot of PvP tonight. Lost a pair of D5D's but was able to redeem myself as LordHelios. Destroyed Dizzy's CWLP, TT's BCp and Llama in a droner, not sure which. Great Battles all, looking forward to more <S>
			
 
			
			- 
				Well the Coalition front is turning out to be a lot more entertaining than the Kitty front.
I had probably my best and most entertaining 1v1 since SS2 tonight, a classic mano-e-mano duel between light dreadnoughts. Duck and myself faced off with a Liege+ and a Shrike in a thoroughly entertaining high-speed slugfest. Duck was destroyed after bagging all of my nasty Stingers (which I'm sure earned him no small measure of satisfaction).
Outstanding game Duck.  :thumbsup:
			 
			
			- 
				Well now you both qualify for the DN losers club having lost 2 or more...  ;D
			
 
			
			-

And I will contine to loose them -=- after all they aint worth VP and that way I can push the limits..
All the pvp games I am getting in are great..
Good luck everyone and keep hunting

			- 
				Not sure DH -- maybe its a mental issue -- see I just dont mind loosing a ship -- I know any of the players out there can beat me -- but I also know that I can beat them.. That means I just enjoy the combat, however I like the idea of DN's being worth maybe 2 vp and BCH worth 1 vp --Give me those criteria and damn if I wont be out hunting a DN in a LC -- and you can bet others would be as well.
It also makes the player flying a DN a little more cautious.. but a victory is all that much sweeter when you earn a point or two for your side..

I haven't made any kills; but I sure didn't mind staying and fighting out 1v2 odds this time around (couple times, kudos to the tight wing/flank flying I'm facing too... managed to bloody some noses out there but I usually get forced off due to superior tactical movement from my foes) and I'm enjoying the hell out of it.  I do see VC points for kills being useful for campaigns... I'm with Shadow on that, I would go hunt large prey just because... but a break once and a while is obviously good too :)
Looking forward to more... I'm open for challenge/dueling as well so long as it doesn't conflict with my orders at the time and my pp total holds up for replacements ;)
			 
			
			- 
				Hey I turned into and let DH blow up my CAY just because I'd rather someone who flew a damned good match get the satisfaction of the kill.
I think that's just about honor and respect.

I have to agree.  I've had a couple of silly 2v1 w/ me in a CL vs humans in a DN and a wing.  I had the PP, it doesn't hurt the team, so I really just wanted to hang around and play for the heck of it.  I made a mental note that my goal was X (kill the little ship, cause an internal on the big ship, or just see if I can get a drone to hit...didn't matter).  Seemed to make it a little more enjoyable.  I will say the lesser "ban" penalty for dieing vs staying encourages sticking around.  Don't think the 50% "cost" does, but after the first week...most player have enough PP to replace whatever they had.  I'm sure my opinion would be different on the last point if I was flying an uber-dread and only had 60K in the bank.
But I have to agree w/ the above...a little variety is good (admittedly I tried that same line on my wife...didn't go over well :mischief: )

				WOO-HOO I got a kill!
Soth's Rommie something or other fell to the esg's of Likkerpig's mighty CWLP!
YAY ME!
Ok, Soth's het failure might have had something to do with it... 
I'm coming to get you Krueg! Send all your minions first if you want, but I'll make you pay for what you did!
(hmph, 2 days in a police frigate because you ruined my nice war destroyer..... JUSTICE WILL BE MINE!)

				Mutt in a Mirak CD+ and myself in a Mirak CVA faced Soth in a C8K and Kaz in a D5L.  It was bloody, and it lasted about 4 mins.  Scratch one Klink Dread and 1 Klink light cruiser.  GG guys

				I think that is the first time I've ever seen a CD+ on the winning side of a kill thread post.   :notworthy:

My X-goal is usually to score equal internals unless I'm outmatched, in which case I just try to get a few before I'm chased off... little stubborn I guess.

				Ok quick story here..
My 13 year old son, has been watching me play the game on and off for years. For whatever reason on this server he has started to sit down beside me and watch the PVP games. Anyways  I have had a few ships die to players as of late. All good games ya know the kind where you can win or loose based on one move or one mistake.
Well last night he watches a 3v2 games where we were forced to fly off the map vs DH and Frey (VGG guys) -- then he watched me play a 1v1 vs Paladin Fed CF vs My FFH_K. Game was very close and I thought I had Paladin with two fully loaded S torps (we were doing a Mexican standoff at about range 7 ) anyways he WW and my world goes to pot. 
I die., game ends..
The punk ass kid looks up at me and says
"You sure die a lot as a Romulan" 
Sigh -- he lived I didnt even smack him (considering he is only 2-3 inches shorter then me probably a smart move on my part) .. 
Bastard Kid I am going to get him up and running for a server and put a bounty on his head!!

Anyways  I have had a few ships die to players as of late. All good games ya know the kind where you can win or loose based on one move or one mistake.

Classic.   That story sounds so familiar.   My nephew practices on his Playstation2 games so that he can trounce me when I visit.   He always seems amazed when I can keep up or do better than him when he first gets these games.   20+ years of being a gamer certainly helps.
Great story, Duck!!!   ;D

				Best way to shut em up is to let them do it themselves and see how damned hard it is, hehe.
Kill: What a time to logon! I see 44,4 get hit in the news. Its an ISC hex... Hrmmm... down to 49. Must be a base deepstriker. Who's online... Ahhh! Mrogue in his DN! 
Poof.
GG Mrogue. You got the short end of the stick. I hope that base was worth the pp...  ;D

				Frey in a I-CCY and Soreyes in a Z-DFR Drafted Rom Duck in a R-DN and Mrogue in a R-SUA? a Carrier.
Rom Duck dropped at the start which left Mrogue.  Let The Hunt Begin.
Outstanding move by Mrogue to fly into the rocks and dust clouds. Frey stayed behind Mrogue hitting him with PPD shots while I tried to get ahead of Mrogue. At the end I finally got in front and put 6 type 4 drones on his nose, that slowed him down enough for Frey to finish him off with two S torps
A salute to Mrogue who put up a Heck of a fight :thumbsup:
			 
			
			- 
				Diz whats this comment about loosing a RDN last nigt to you? Dont recall that happeneing -- and not wearing any diz collar either..
Duck
Are you referrring to my flying off the map when Rouge CTD as we tried to set up a 2v2?
			 
			
			- 
				No, I'm talking about my recent capture of Soth's ship. And of yours, of course which was a week back. I gues you still havent watched that film I posted. I didnt capture the AI rom ships, I capped YOU. And then the roms fired on you. And when you blew up, you took them both with you. I'm sorry, but its probably ther best film ever! Thats what you and Soth get for extended deepstrikes and excessive beaming actions... hehe.
			
 
			
			- 
				LOL -- diz this is supposed to be for NEW KILLS but since you dont have any of those on me I guess your trying to relive old ones -- now lets not bring up those rocks you seem to love so much and all the times I have pushed you into them shall we..

				very nice battle last night me(Tomcat'n) L-BCP and Chuut-Ritt DF vrs Rom Duck in a SUK. i think anyway, it was a hawk hull with fighters.CR and I came out on top but it wasnt easy. VGG sir :woot:
			
 
			
			- 
				Dear Mr. Po,
   It was a pleasure meeting your acquaintance today. I had a lot of fun. The second match, I thought I had you dead to rights when I tractored you and launched my ftrs and drones, but you slipped away from me, I believe without taking any damage. It's too bad we wernt able to finish that second game... It was shaping up to be a doozy.
I'd also like to tell you I also got the jibbers that game. When you were circling that rock, I had a trac up and actually had to cancel a HET twice because you kept faking the turn in. I managed to calm down after you moved away from it. GG's. Hope to play you more.
Your enemy,
Dizzy
			 
			
			- 
				Dizzy--
Appreciate the kind words, sir! Though I died twice, I enjoyed the PvP opportunity-- the chance to go mano a mano in this game seems to arise all to rarely for me. (and I could certainly use the practice.)  Funny and ironic thing on that second game-- I was just setting my "repel" tractor when you grabbed me in preparation for making a pass at you--doing so distracted me somewhat and probably contributed to me being grabbed in the first place!  So I was both lucky and unlucky at the same time!  Anyway,  I had meant to gracously thank you for the dueling opportunity but that chance was lost when I pulled my ethernet cable apart in my "post-hitting-the rock" tantrum. :banghead:
Didn't get back on until about 10:30 last night as a result.  (I finally found an old cable in a box of cords in the attic crawlspace).  ;D
Anyway, it was a pleasure, and I'm looking forward to tractoring you into a rock real soon. :)
Your (Vanquished, for now) Foe
Mr. Po

				VGG game last night--- Myself in a K-FDW and Throg in a half-drone-depleted DWD (I think) against Ternado in his Fed DN (an't remember the exact config.)
In an hour long battle, Ternado presses us mightily, but finally escapes heavily damaged across the border.  VERY well fought battle.  If I hadn't gotten lucky and slipped a multipack on him that popped right under his nose the battle might still be going on.
VGG guys!

				Shin32nd's K-D5D perished against my G-MCC.
The second fight was his K-DWL vs my MCC in which he did make it off the map.
VGG's !!    ;)

				One big bad poodle has just been put out of his misery... C8VK by Dib fell to my STL cheeseboat. Was a gg.
EDIT: One good DN deserves another. GG again Dib, that CNV should have died twice. Count your lucky stars your engineer knows how to keep those shuttle bay doors working. ;) I'm frankly amazed.

				Good point LK, speaking of which...
... I lost a CF to LK and two of his wings a little while ago in a 1vs3, although it was foolish to stay I had fun with it anyway.  Almost made it across the border until my speed ran below 31 (I think I actually was right at the red line) and was tractored and pulled into mucho weapons and explosions.  Thanks for the match guys <S>  I thought maybe the kill wasn't posted because of the circumstances, but it was my choice to stay and fight :)
			 
			
			- 
				Lost a L-BCPp to Lord Saxon's DWD.  Got moderately agressive when I should have gone full aggressive or fully cautious and Saxon flew like a champ doing many nasty hit and runs, and though overmatched in ships his superior flying proved more decisive.
Salute to you Lord Saxon, very well played by you Sir.

Yeah, I remember that, I was surprised you stuck around at all with the lopsided odds, and yeah, you were right at the line when Duck tractored you and dragged you back into a hail of drones and weapons fire. <S>
I started off posting a couple kills, but, didn't see the point with no VCs for PvP on this server. Had almost a dozen yesterday alone, with 2 excellent 3v3, numerous 2v2, 2v3, 3v2, and even a couple 1v1.
I just had to bust a little on Dizzy, since he died first in one of the 3v3 last night... :P

				Myself in a CCY vs Methanerider in a CHC vgg.  Methanerider was gassed and put back to base in a war destroyer.  He will get the last laugh though as my CCY fell right after to the base he was protecting.  Was swamped by fighters.

Indeed it was a fierce, duo tractored slugfest. Luckily I remembered to switch back to my Hit and Run raids, when my last 5 marines were about to beam over. You coulda captured me w/ 1 transporter.... Hope to see you again on the field of battle.

				I'll share a good battle tale... it wasn't a kill, but a damn good fight!
Got the draft expecting a team-mate, but got Soth instead. He was flying a D5D, I had a Gorn CLF. We both approached each other with caution, and started the long dance. For quite a while, it went as expected, this was my first PVP with a CLF on this server, it's been quite a while since I'd flown this ship, and had forgotten its capabilities. That, and add the fact I'm a more seasoned player since then too ;)
Anyhow, I managed to keep up a very respectable speed and still be able to charge heavies. I figured a F plasma is just about as good as a S in this situation, and turned off my F launchers and loaded F's in my S launchers (that way I get a quicker load time at less power to boot). We went punch for punch for about 20 minutes- I'd get the odd hit in, he kept pasting me with phasers. There were a couple close calls, once in the corner which could have came close to being bad for my sake, and once along the border which helped me get a good shot in. Eventually, he took out one of my S's, and I knew it was crunch time, or I was gonna be a pair of boots before long. By then I was out of spare parts. I got an F back online, waited for it to charge, then loaded up an S torp. BTW, I should point out every now n then I'd launch a pseudo either to keep him at bay, or just to keep him guessing. Just as I finished loading, he got to feeling cocky and got in the Zone. I let loose the S for a smack in the nose, and followed close with the F. That pretty well knocked the fight out of him, and he made for friendly space. 
In summary, I just wanna say (once again) damn good game! You certainly made for a very tough match! <S>
			 
			
			- 
				Thats cool u took a D5D out with a CLF... Nice job. Poor Soth, he just doesnt ever get a break...
			
 
			
			- 
				Well this weekend past there were so many fantastic games I dont know where to start -- 
Hmm first off -- Yea I to dont post all my kill or deaths but some of the major ones I do -- and I do usually respond to  someone else's post about a game I was in. 
Great jobs with every single wing I had -- or with lead ships that I happened to wing for this weekend. 
Two significant very close match ups that were 1v1 games..
Game 1 --
Diz in a lyran BCP? vs Duck SUK_ 
Game started off great both pilots trying to use the Ion Storm for tactical advantage.. I had the early lead but Diz wore me down.. He pulled very sweet move with a Stop and WW that voided two close range S torps..after that I got hit with the ESG as I was doing a flyby -- end result I kepy flying by and left the map to avoid death..Great game diz -- 
BTW for the record here game was a little fubar at the begining see I didnt get any AI helpers and Diz got two - -- he sat at speed zero and told me to kill off the AI before we started our pvp match -- hats off to diz for his IN GAME SPORTSMANSHIP 
Game 2 
As above a great match up same ships Lyran BCP vs Duck in SUK -- lyran pilot was Chutt.. you had to be part of this game to belive the damage -- in my match vs diz we did some long range sniping in this game we closed range and went to town on each other..now as expected and as ducked learned its not a great idea to get in a knife fight with range 0 esg ..however my god i dumped out the fighters and they ALMOST made the difference ..both sides suffered massive internal damage and kept pouding away..Chutt won the match and my SUK went down in flames (I belive it was my only death the whole weekend) -- However as I recall chutt send me a message that his ship had 401? repairs or some such crap -- was a down and dirty match.
Well flown to both you guys..
GG to everyone on the weekend.  
(PS DIZ my kid has been playing online the last few days -- flying under the name Ducks_Kid  -- he is on his own when flying as I dont help him..so take him to town and show him the ropes if ya get him in mission..so far I think he had 2 pvp missions -- died to a fed CA DN combo and flew off vs and ISC CA) 
			 
			
			- 
				Chuut was telling me about that one, Duck. He said he won by 2 phasers and 7 power or something like the skin of his teeth... haha. That'd be a film worth watching.
On our match, we did a fair amount of sniping, but dont forget midway thru the match, we both closed nose to nose and slugged it out before I was forced to swing out to repair. I couldn't hang there and finish that knife fight, I felt I was losing it. I think I was the worst off after that exciting exchange. What kept me in the game, I think was the fact my ship had 5 more spares than yours. Oh, and ya, that was a risky ES move at the end, but it worked! That's straight out of my old book,"Dizzy's Stupid Tricks". gg.
Duckling Jr. needs to do some PvP now, he has amassed a small fortune... I'll show him how not to get killed like 'dad'. ;)

I was the ISC pilot, he flew pretty good, but let me get in too close after he though was out of guns.
			 
			
			- 
				It was 4 Phasers and 7 power dizzy as I kept repairing my ph 1s.  Anyhow I was lucky in the end as Duck was trying to get away at speed 2 to let his fighters finish me, had he stayed at range zero the explosion of his ship would likely have taken me out as well.  That was likely the most down and dirty match I have ever been a part of.  Some might call it knife fighting, I think that doesn't do it justice, was definately clawing and biting fighting with a couple of eye gouges thrown in.
			 
			
			- 
				Duck, Duckling Jr would make you proud... sort of. :P In a close nailbiter of a mission, he stuck to Dib like glue and was a great wingman never splitting off and making sure Dib's CNV+ was kept from getting overrun by Soreyes' DWD and my LDNM.
But right as Dib was attempting to disengage because of light damage and very weak shields, I made my move with Soreyes coming close in behind for the kill. I had my tractor set and marines ready to prevent the fighters from deploying. But I couldn't get close enough in time. 16 fighters launched right as I cut off Dib and tractored him from running over the Red line. While I alphaed Dib with ESG's and all my phasers and dizzies, Soreyes saw the Ftrs launch and went for them instead of duck trying to lkill them off before they shot their plasma. 
But he was too late. Three squads hit me, some with Plasma and one hit Soreyes with plasma. I survived the barrage, but poor Soreyes was blown into space dust. I managed to get a few Tbombs off at Dib and his entire ship was blacked out. All he had was his right warp engine. He swung around, I'm sure to disengage as his hull was 10%, and I'm sure since his ftrs were empty he thought maybe I had enough to finish him. But fearing the Ph3's from what was left of his ftr squadrons and the fact I had no Starboard weapons and his ftrs were headed in that direction, I frantically repaired my engines to give me just enough to coast over the line. I think I beat Dib to it, hehe.
Here's what the last few seconds of this quick and dirty battle looked like:
(http://home.satx.rr.com/spiderwebs/DibVsDiz.gif)
What a hell of a game... Hat's off to all of us on that one, it was a film keeper.
Oh, almost forgot, Duck... As Soreyes ship debris cleared, I didn't notice DuckJr's ship anywhere. Hrmmm... Wonder where he went?
Diz
			 
			
			- 
				Few things first off GG last night DFly -- sorry we could not have kept up our usual cat and mouse battle as I think my power curve was winning that one for me but -- it would have taken about 3 hrs to finish to the mission at least..interesting battle as it was -- I turned off all phasers and went into run down mode on Dfly in a CAT? while he used only the 3 S torps to keep me at bay. 
Also good game to (Damn i forget) Mutt? and Riskey? or was that you Dfly? pulled a nice het with a hoild up.. forget which combo but as I was running the two of them down they nailed me at the border.. good job
In the end I had used my parts and left the map..both of us were enjoying the game.
Second thanks for the kind words to several of you on Duck Jr.. he is only 13 and well to be honest has never played the game before. He was watching me on this server and has gotten into it..I hope to have some time to train him before the next server. So far any time he played I have been at work or gone to bed so its nice to hear from several of you that while he may be a new player he is doing Ok  -- it did my heart good to hear he stuck on his wing...All that being said feel free to give him adivce on any game. 
I guess he I need a second copy of OP or at least another CD key so Matt can play online at the same time..he has a computer of his own that will run the game and I already have two systems on the router..a 3rd shouldnt be that big a deal. So by next server you may see us flyind side by side.. 
Duck

				VGGs Duck.
That first one you mention about last night, we flew for 1hour 28 mins when it ended.  That 2 extra power your ship had was making a difference and I could not match your speed and recharge fast enough so I was taking the odd internals to your not taking any.  If you noticed I had dropped my overall speed to around 24 after about 1 hour.  I had not lost any power but this was my only way to counteract your ship advantage.  Dangerous, ya, but you were using your ship as a phaser boat, so I felt I could work it.  That ship you had is about 40 more bpv than mine and it showed.  The CAT is 155.
Hey Duck, that one you forgot, that was Me and Mutt, with me in the CAT and Mutt in a Heavy Battlecruiser Lyran.  You had the SUK and an AI that had double plasmas and used them well vs Mutt at the beginning.  I faked him and slowed him from following for the first bit while Mutt crippled him. After some phasering back and forth you  followed us to the border when I did the HET and grabbed you.  You saw it coming at the last second and launched your fighters.  3 of them targetted me while the other 2 hit Mutt.  Just before they hit me, I did a full strike on you crippling you.  You shot me with everything, tractor still held even after the fighters hit me.  we had each taken about 100 internals by then.  As the tractor dropped Mutt came into range and overan you, taking you out.  We returned to finish off the AI after.
Was a great fight especially when Mutt took all that damage in the first pass from that AI.  This gave you reason to fight it out as your ship was more than a match for mine and your AI was still alive, though hurt.

				Well its not a kill, but I got my capture merit badge to shin32. He gave me an awesome fight and would have pushed my I-CSF off the map in his K-D5DR but spent too many marines on hit and runs and didnt notice my capture team beam over as I began running toward the border. It took every trick in my book to pull it off, good flying and good hunting to ya! 
			
 
			
			- 
				 :rofl: Poor shin...
Hey Dib and Reejr, AWESOME Games last night. So sorry bout your DWL and C7, Reejr, you had it coming. And Dib, that was a crunchy CNH. I'll have another please!  ;D
			 
			
			- 
				The Kitty High Command is Stunned..... Soreyes Got Another PvP kill. With the Help of the smartest AI help I have ever seen.
Drafted Raus who was in a R-NHK, and a R-SUE that was his AI help. I was in my Z-DWD with a L-MP as AI help.
First things first. Took out the R-SUE and started after Raus. After a few phaser shots and a few Plasma and Drone exchanges . Raus caught me with a enveloping R or S torp that took my Shields down to almost nothing. In the mean time the L-mp was sniping away at Raus which gave me a chance to recover a little bit. After a few more minutes of stalking each other, I finally got behind Raus and started to chase him down with a LV-2 Tractor set up. When I got to with in range 7 or 8 Raus did something that I was not expecting. He did a 180 het right into me :o  At range .85 I let loose with six type 4 drones that all hit. I moved off and the L-MP came up and started to put some Phaser  Fire through Raus's down Shield. Raus then Cloaked and went to speed 1.5.  I flashed cubed him and hooked a tractor on but was way to close to launch drones. I let him loose and attempted to flash cube him two more times, but could not get the mines to go off when I ran over them. :banghead:  I moved off to try again when out of nowhere the L-MP came up and smacked Raus with two ESG's and a alpha strike with it's phasers. With that Raus came out of his cloak, and I came in with a over run and put 6 more type 4 drones into him. Raus went boom and almost took me out by giving me 54 internals when he blew up.  A Very Good game there Raus. I'm sure you will blow up my ship a few times before the end. ;D

				I don't know where everyone is, but I have been having a blast with lots of stable 3v3's and 2v2's. Tons of fun... 
Well, with the few that have been on... the battle has raged in several key spots with certain chances for PvP... and there seems to be an endless list of Coalition casualties. Nice to see they can't get enough...
Where is everyone? Wth the few we have, we sure are having fun...

I don't know Dizzy. If there like me right now there at Work  ::) ;D

				Been getting killed at work.   Fricking virus . . . 
I MIGHT be on tonight.

				A very fun battle that took place Wednesday night was Duck in CNH and LK in SUK vs Dfly in CCY, Risky in CMV and Dizzy in CCF.  Risky got too risky and blew up from heavy firing of the Dread without even a single shot out of his fighters.  Later Duck and LK were hurting, and LK, while protecting the Dread passage off map  unfortunately got a little too shot up to get off the map without getting tractored back across the red line and blown up.  Was a great fun game.

				Risky in a I-CCZ, Dfly in some sort of ISC CA, Soreyes in a Z-DWD Vs  R-SUA.......AI
Soreyes dies in a hail of T-Bombs from Risky and Dfly.   Bastards!!!!!!!!!! ;D
			 
			
			- 
				If I dont start getting to be earlier -- I will be killing myself.
So many dang GOOD GAMES last night it wasn't funny. (well ok truth to tell only 2-3 but they were long ass games) and I am totally exhausted today. 
See everyone tonight -- with luck I might even get to take a nap before I get online but I doubt it. 
GG to everyone ..

nicest part was tractoring Soreyes and pushing him back into the plasmas that were following him.  Made is sooo much easier, and he never saw it coming.  Then it started raining.

				Romshin in his CNH was drafted 1 hex deep in the Romulan territory by me in a CCZ.  GG Romshin, those I torps were what did you in.  No ai in mission.
			
 
			
			- 
				U didnt kill him, did u?
Poor kid spent 3x nights in a FF to work his way up to a DN that I was supposed to take away from him.. DAMN U!
			 
			
			- 
				Got a new player earlyer today. MDK flying a K-D7W Vs. Me in my Z-DWD. Got him with a "Death Drag" GG
Earlyer I had a nice little go around with Shadowlord in a K-FX :skeptic: ;D  
Crossed the "T" twice on him and had him hurt. I thought I was doing pretty good untill I found out that During our battle. Shadowlord had to go to his front door to answer the door bell :o ;D  GG :thumbsup:

				Woo Hoo well we did it. We got Dizzy in his damn Lyran Dn tonight!!!!!! It was a blast fighting him and Chuut trying to run the dv down on the rom planet. And I had a big friend along in his Rom Dn (Lord Halios) to help lure Dizzy into thinking he had the upper hand in the battle. After Dizzy and his friends ran me off all week long trying to retake the planet.....I died lots of times...it made my day to see Dizzy go boom ...lol. Since I won't be able to get on the server before it ends today I would like to thank everyone who played. I have had one hell of a good time flying and fighting with all who played. The fighting around the rom planet has been a blast all week long. You kitties should never give Chuut any catnip....I don't think he sleeped at all most of this server because everytime I logged in he was always on. Again thank you guys for putting up one hell of a fun server with lots of battles for all. The P v P has been very heavy on this server...at least for me it has been :). Great job to those who ran it and kudos to all the admins on all sides.

Actually I allowed his ship to leave, as he was speed 14, 1 phaser1, 1 plasmas, both uncharged, and no repairs left.  But I am glad to have taken away your hopes of destroying him eheh.

I was schooled. That sh*t will never happen again. I can't believe I fired up range zero. What was I thinking?
			 
			
			- 
				In one monumental battle, Duck in rom CLX along with  Krueg in KLink DX drafted myself in ISC CCX and Dizzy in Mirak HDW.  After more than 1 hour, Duck was tractored at the border and killed, while he had dropped his Neuc and I ran it over, thus killing Dizzy in the process.  I was hurting and so was Krueg, but Krueg felt it prudent to run off the map.
Excellent game all round, well worth it.  And I get to claim a kill on Dizzy eheh.

Dont forget the Planet, bases fleetrepair docks and defense platforms  :P
Anyhow you guys flew great, esp Lord Helios suckering Dizzy in, was a ballsy move and if it hadn't worked Helios would likely have died.  Risky moves like that arew the sign of a great captain.....if they work.
<S> to you guys!

				I was counting on the ISC carrier's fighters still being in repair, but it could have went much worse if Dizzy had launched his PF's before I nabbed him with the level 4 tractor. It took me a minute to finish charging my torps and turn to face him, and luckily Reejr closed in to take his shots while Chuut kept his distance. The $20 for leaving Dizzy to the wolves is in the mail!

Dizzy was dead already as soon as you grabbed him and I saw he had a lvl 0 ESG, no way to save him as ftrs were still repairing, felt no need to join him.

That was a ellva fight!  :thumbsup:

				Many kills... too many deaths should have bought stock in the "DF" hull  ;D. By far this was the best PVP server FSD has been on since we started playing on the Dyna.
Excellent job by all the admins and RMs  :notworthy: to keep it going and above all keep it fun. Looking forward to what ever comes next. Think the points for capital ships is a great way to go to help maintain balanced play.
And as I log off for the final time I can confidently state that no enemy ever stepped foot on an original Lyran, Mirak or ISC planet  :woot:
Thanks to all the players I encountered in all the fun an honourable PVP games I was in as Mutilator and as the Gingerbreadman.

				Hexx valiantly sacrificed his ship to take out my Phaser-G in this 1v1 H-RNX versus L-CCXf  duel . . .

			- 
				Please I'm sure I killed a few marines as well.
It's all cuz I remapped the weapons for the CCX.
Honest.
			 
			
			- 
				Thanks Krueg for that last minute fight and taking the server out with a bang!  Me getting cocky in my bigger ship and chasing gave you the upper hand.  If I hadn't launched the PF's to buy me some time...
I was flying the PF's half the time making sure they didn't get popped by your drones - luring the drones toward the main ship.  Very tricky though... I was IN the one you tractored there toward the last which is why the mother ship didn't react faster.  Very well fought my friend!

				I also had a last minute fight on the server. Approximately 5 minutes from the end of the server, I logged back on findng I had left my ship on the southwestern planet of the center planets. It appeared that the Alliance had just flipped the hex to the southwest of that planet neutral. After checking on my supplies, I hit that hex and was unpleasantly surprised to draft Komodo because I was in a Z-HDWVm and he was in a G-CCX.
I say unpleasantly surprised, which loosely translates into "Oh sh*t!" However, I decided to make a go of it and was rather surprised to see that he didn't know how to handle incomming drones. About 3:45 into the match, he started taking internals. He launched plasma at me twice during the course of the match, but never touched me. At 5:59 into the match, his CCX was molten debris and the match ended moments later. 
Good game, Komodo. I was not expecting to be able to beat you with you in that X ship, much less blow you away. After the match  I looked at the stats for the G-CCX in this shiplist, though. I realized overall, it was ill suited to drone defense. 2 Plasma R, 2 Plasma S, 12 phaser 1s, and apparently only 2 tractors. With my cluster missiles to help absorb your point defense, well, I'm not sure even an experienced player experienced in plasma vs drones could have beaten me, even if I did almost let you sneak up on me by flying only at speed 20 at first. Thanks for my second PvP kill ever.

				Well done all.  It was a pleasure even in death in PvP.
			
 
			
			- 
				That was a real bang up for me lol 
Actually, I'm pretty good at drone defence for the most part, but I'd become accustomed to not dealing with 'em very much for the most part on server. I usually run my phaser cap at 1/2 power, and I think that contributed greatly to my misfortune- by the time I thought to up it, it was too late to do any good. Either way, I don't think it would have made much difference on my part- with you running top speed, and my having to save phasers for point defence, you'd have the upper hand long enough to slowly peck me to bits before your drones ran out. How many drones does that beasty carry? I assume they were heavies...
Really, my only chance was to catch you before you got up to full speed. It was close, lemme tell you! I had a tractor all set n ready to hook you in, & the closest I got was range 5, & by then you were taking the lead at speed 28. I let an R loose & was probably the only hit I got on you LOL.  I think the only reason I didn't charge in was because I was trying to determine the extent of your drone barrage as I closed in. It's been quite a while since I last encountered MIRV's & I was trying to figure out how to ignore them & concentrate on the singles you kept lobbing at me. As you mentioned, having only 2 tractors didn't help matters- I was really starting to miss my Hydran boat right about then LOL
Damn good match Josh- I think we both learned something there   ;)

				You assume correctly. Type 1s wouldn't have done nearly as much damage that quickly. The Z-HDWVm has 1 A rack, 2 B racks, 2 C racks, and one M rack. Total capacity of 70 Type 4 drones, 10 of which are cluster missiles, IIRC. I'm sure someone will correct me if I've made a mistake in that calculation, though.
