In small ships, especially if youve been playing a while, you can feel more self-righteous then people in cap ships and can 'tut' at them when you see them.
In the smalest of small ships you can get that feeling of utter jubilation when you find out that you can outturn that bomber and keep CD'ing him when he engine kills. Thus meaning you remain behind him 100% of the time and out of sight of his SNAC/Missiles.
Theres nothing more satisfiying that the gloating bomber pilot suddenly trying to flee for his life while you plick plick plcik away at his hull and Spam CD's, poping all his mines on his own tail.

Please try that against any descent Bomber Pilot. I will assure you the result is not satisfactory by your end. xD
Good LF pilot > Good Bomber pilot. Once they run out of mines/missiles it's game over, you don't even need CDs to kill them after that.
A tactic does not have to be good just because you performed it on several people and succeeded.
However, it is the most optimal choice to fight bombers yes, and in a Light Fighter that tactic can work, but no way you can keep up with that fast-combat in a Heavy Fighter or Very Heavy Fighter.
Also, if the bomber pilot is any good against that Light Fighter he knows that he should drag out the battle by using defensive and evasive tactics to try waste those 70 CD-Missiles the Light Fighter carries.
At McNeo, I'm 100% certain there are fighter pilots who can totally destroy me with ease, since I have experienced it myself, but I'm not arguing for myself, I'm just arguing in general how you can consider a tactic to be so good due to minimal evidence.
' Wrote:Light fighter with MR can do a hell lots of damage... But you need to avoid missiles or mines.
As I can recall the only Light Fighter who can use the Mini Razor is the Loki, with the necessary powerplant. If this statement its true, its also true that only the Red Hessians could provide a Bomber pilot with such problems.
Correct me if I'm wrong on that one. Not sure anymore since its a new mod and all...

Considering I don't know what tactic you're talking about... it's obviously not the one I was taught. Especially since you don't even need CDs to do it...
