Great show! I support tactics like this. Playing fair doesn't have to be dumb...

good tactic - if you don t go ooRP afterwards and suicide into a planet to skip the repair costs.

Oh man, this is good stuff. *Writes this down...*

I'm bad for doing that accidentally.
Cruise, engine kill, start shooting from the rear while they scramble to catch up. I forget that I picked a target for the goto command.
All's going well, then -- BOOM!!!

I met a Cylon once that used similar tactic, but he was much more dirtier.
He would fight us (2 fighters) until he looses shield, and then he would enter sun corona just until his shield regenerates 'till half, and then he would come and attack us again.
Fighters loose hull much quicker in there, while he looses way less then actually fighting us without shield.
But the problem was that it's a kind of shield running.
But nevertheless, he used tactic to fight us, and I saluted him for that.
Same goes for you. Use tactical advantages.

Rudo - I can't see any problem with this tactic. In fact, consider it standard practice from now on.
Neutron stars FTW!

I think you're going to get a couple of pages of kudos for this....
Good job. Next on your list should be dragging GC/NovaPG through the gas fields in Sigma 13.

I hate that cloud.
You shoot a wreck, out pops a codename.
The cloud detonates.

Yes that's kind of cheap.... but bringing 6 Catamarans is cheap in its own right. If they bring a more balanced group they don't need to be so afraid of the cloud.

I don't think it's cheap, the GMG did it to Rheinland in the 80-years war. I had it done to me a pair of times. Good fun more than anything else, especially when a Luxury Liner should be able to fend off a pair of fighters anyway...
