Fairplay vs Roleplay

[Jihadjoe]

Fairplay and roleplay are not mutualy exclusive. It is perfectly possibly to RP hanging back from a fight.

Also, engaging with huge numbers... Not needed.

If there is a small group attacking something, then take a -slightly- superiour force. That way you are in RP (superiour numbers assuring a victory) and also making it fair (by not having a freaking horde of people to shoot down a single bloody scimmy).

Besides, if the larger force starts to take casualties and looks like losing, then those who hung back could join the fight, equally within RP, as it appears that their assistance is needed after all.

Everything can be kept fun, and within roleplay. However if it came down to one or the other, (which it doesn't) I would be unable to decide.

Just because a target presents itself doesn't mean you need to engage.

Regard everyone elses fun time before you start a fight. Today we RoS went to gamma with what was quite a large force. We had a good fight when we were there, I geniunly enjoyed it. We went with a force of that size -only- because we could see the numbers we had against us. We also refused the requests of a few capships who would have accompanied us down, due to the fact we wanted a good fight, not an overpowered peice of rubbish.
We lost...


On a little side note Magoo.
How is one supposed to use a bomber without a supernova?
