Leaving the fight, fighters vs caps

[Eppy]

Honestly, it IS BS when you get chased by a bunch of Battlecruisers, or indeed anything bigger than a Gunboat, which is why they need to be restricted to factions...Here's why I think your situation doesn't count: you're assaulting the single most heavily defended place in all of Sirius-the virtual capital of all commerce and policy in the entire game- in a light fighter. How does that work? You'd be blown out of the sky the minute you came into range of the planetary defense grid. The capital ships wouldn't even have to bother showing up, strictly speaking, because you'd be dead already. Now, if you were to go assault West Point or Pittsburgh nobody's care, as long as you vamoosed quickly enough. This same rule applies to basically all the major houses. Why people can't get it through their heads that it's insane to attack a capital planet I don't know...

Oh, and for all you people whining about the Battleships hunting-it's just as gut-wrenching to watch that big-ass 1.5 billion credit Battleship disappear in a big flash when three guys in cheap little bombers show up, CD you and Nova you till you drop. It goes both ways. (and escorts don't matter, not unless they happen to have Admin cannons, because it takes a lot longer for a Saber to shoot down a bomber than it does the bomber to throw seven or eight Novas into a Battleship).

Quick comment - we thought that Panzer was the Leader, Swift. -Agmen

Which Dreadnought was that?

One of your nine.
