Order VS Keeper Battle - 5/27/08

[Tenacity]

I didn't like it.

Battleship , 2 Cruisers and fighters vs Gunboat and fighters

No wonder Keepers aren't all that active these days.

In my opinion , the fight should have looked something like / Order - only fighter/bomber ships and one battleship that was there only to put up an RP while the fight was taking place.Instead you jumped them with all you got.

Well since you killed some Keepers. It wont be a bad idea to make up and RP topic about learning something new about them.Thats the best that can come up of this battle.

Flt.Admiral_Mira, the one flying the advanced battlestar, talked to the keepers before hand (from what I heard) and told them that if they'd wait a few minutes, she'd switch to a fighter to make the fight more 'fair'. They refused.

At the time of the initial fight, the only people around were myself (Zoner destroyer), Mira (in the battleship), and another independent order pilot in a talarca cruiser.

They still managed to destroy mira, myself, and a couple others before they lost the battle. We may have outnumbered and outgunned them, but those nomad fighters/bombers are nearly impossible to hit if you ask me (though my aim sucks), and all of them were exceptional pilots.

Not only that, but of the people that joined in later - two of them were AGAINST us (the bounty hunter attacked both sides, and the outcast went after order/corsair ships and ignored the nomads).

It wasnt quite as lopsided a battle as it seems at first glance.
