Today during an attempted bounty hunt, it was a pirate bomber against me in a gunboat and my frined in a BC. The pirate brought up an interesting question. When the pirate got out of range of our guns, his faster thruster, we turned on our cruise engines to catch up. I know the rule about hitting cruise to run from a fight, but i was not trying to run.
So....Is using cruise engines by cap ships to close distance with bombers and fighters a valid tactic?
If i was wrong, i apologise to the pirate i was hunting. I wasn't running though, and think it should be a valid tactic, or bombers and fighters can always just thrust away from gunboats.
