LPI Patriots vs. Pirate LFs

[knight2]

That was real fun!!!!


some points:
- It was a bit laggy for me though... don't get why.. as even bigger battles usually are not laggy for me at all.... maybe all the 8.33 refire guns.

- the Patriot is half or less the size of a Dagger and even smaller compared to Bloodhound, it's also a lot more agile => it was like fighting average LF (say a hussar) with an average VHFs (Avenger)

- another problem was that it was 5 on 3 most of the time... our 4th guy got kicked out of system on the start... then when he finally came back he crashed.... so when he came again it was 3 on 2 and he went down.

- crashes (ramming) took 1/2 or whole shield (depending on angle) and half hull!!!

For next time:
- no Train CDs!!!!! I had a few and they had a pretty devastating effect.. you can almost dumbfire them around for some 1/4 of damage on all ships... just when they explode in the general area. Only allowed CD should we Wasp.

and yes.. LPI won

we lost 3 ships.. and LPI 2

We lost 2? I thought we lost 1. Anyway, another not is no Cutter mines... we all used Razors (and one Drone).

Why? It's exactly like in big ships... one mine hit kills you.....
and yes you lost 2.

We had only Wasps. Your guys maybe had Train CD's.
And yes, we need to agree on which mines are we going to use.
I died from a single mine (Cutter), while we where mounting Razor mines (800 dmg i think).

Not whining, it was cool for this fight because we had an obvious advantage, but it would be nice when the fight is even to have only one type of mines for everyone.

I had no lags whatsoever. It was a great fight, smooth like hell.

Patriot is smaller yes, and faster, but has 1 class worse weapons and 1 gun less.
Also, less armor and less bots/bats.
It's the same ship class i think (dagger and patriot).

Yes, i do agree that it was a bit unfair (considering numbers, and kick of your rogue guy), but it was fun after all.

Crashes were boring, yes, but wait till you see the next fight.
It's in the ice field around Willard.
My guess is that it's gonna be "Asteroids are on a Rampage!!!".

Great event really, and i am really glad it's LH and LPI are involved in it.
Great job for everyone involved in it.

P.S - We lost 1;)Me.

P.S 2 -

Why? It's exactly like in big ships... one mine hit kills you.....

Yes, but imagine all of us using Nukes. The blast is too big.
Same for Cutter.
And it's not the problem about which are we going to use, problem is that both sides use the same type of mines;)

All and all, i hope more people will join for the next week's event.
I thought more will be even tonight, like 15-16 people, but i was wrong.
So, guys, ready your Patriots/Daggers/Bloodhounds and see you next week;)

It is every Corsair's responsibility to die a beautiful death in defense of Crete, regardless of how OORP or how capwhoring the opposition is. Launch your fighter, joust the battlecruisers and die a beautiful death. Then, drink it down in the bar.

Indeed...

P.S - We lost 1;)Me.

Hmm... you were 5 on the start and 3 in the end... I killed one right in front of me with guns... but the message didn't came up (flhook bug I guess). Then I dropped the mine that found you.

[chopper]

Hm, no, you killed an NPC.
At least that's what I'v seen.
Let's just wait for the other LPI guys to see if anyone else died.
I know that we said in the end that only one died, and that was me.
4 were still in California.

And yes, who used missiles? And which ones?
Not complaining, I'm just interested which ones are good for me to use:)
I know i lost 1/3 of hull from a missile, and that was from behind while i was dodging..
CD maybe?

heh.. I guess I'm getting blind then... and switched the target in the process somehow.. but I still do believe that there were 3 + Rhino in the end.

EDIT:
I think the Rogue had some missiles... don't know which ones.. but looking around I found that lvl 3 Slingshot has 747 damage... that would be like a Cannonball against a VHF.. one good hit could kill you.

I know I didn't die, I was having fun dogfighting spider for awhile before I managed to take him out. (with few bots/bats left)

I’ll carry this flag
To the grave if I must
Because it’s flag that I love
And a flag that I trust

Next time, I would love to see a couple of Piranhas.
Alright all you PvP lovin' BHG out there : Do you have what it takes or are you all just chicken without your Battlecruisers?
As long as that fight lasted ( a solid 30 minutes at least), aren't we all glad that we weren't using Liberators and Slipstreams?...or MK 8 armor upgrades?
And by the way, those Lane Hacker clan characters are going to be permament and getting their own storyline.
Excellent event all around. This was exactly the kind of thing I was hoping for when I started the LH clan.
