Slomon K'Hara Feedback

[SummerMcLovin]

I thought this would be worth a post, just to bring it to a little more attention than it got - of course, you guys likely know of it anyway.

As is standard for Colonials given their past experiences and knowledge from those in the know, when we see a massive Nomad within 10K of Java it's going to be chased off. Right off, we had the Marduk jumping back and forth between 23 and 37 a few times, meaning we can't drop your shield very much as it half-recharges by the time you emerge.
We chase you off to Alpha where you get some reinforcements including another K'Hara Marduk. After a couple more back and forths to allow you to insta a couple of our snubs, we retreat to find some KNF and a Ranseur near the 23 hole. The fight tips in our favour, and ends up in Alpha again. After almost killing one of you and some regens being passed on (no problem with that really), the back and forth continues a few time and we decide this really isn't worth our time.

Talking to one of the Marduk pilots on TeamSpeak afterwards, the reasoning we received was "two Marduks have no way of beating two Thanatos". Clearly you had found it, and quite the common strategy from what I've seen in the past - insta-ing people as they come out of jumpholes. Stretching this out far too much to give you that many opportunities (I was surprised my IMG| Nanda survived the whole thing) purely to avoid giving a blue message - to me, abusing game mechanics might be an appropriate term - is a lot less than I'd expect from a faction that prides itself on being of the highest quality of RPers, and any official factions in terms of fairplay and/or sportsmanship.
