No Cruise!

[Jinx]

everyone agrees that the rule is not supporting roleplay - but it does support sportmanship and fairplay in terms of balancing fights. the rule is not perfect - but if everyone just sticks to "no cruise in pvp, no matter what ( no matter if you want to catch up or perform manouvers )" then everyone will be fine.

when you cruise - you cruise away - when you cruise a u-turn, you re-engage.... when you accidently cruise into the wrong escape direction - make a wider circle - just try to get more distance between you and them..

BUT if they follow you - you can engage again, cause chasing continues the battle. so if you are followed, you can even E-kill and shoot at them, drop mines, whatever you like... but if they do not follow you - you keep cruising away. - if in doubt, keep cruising away. -- > and as a consequence, leave the system as fast as possible. retreat rules come into effect, and if you like, you can wait for them in the next system. ( that is no re-engagement )

like i said, not a perfect rule, but disco has so many very different ships out there - and some ships just take more advantage from cruising in combat than others.
