If you are in a VHF and a single battleship can kill you, oh dear god what are you doing?
Honestly, if I was flying around in NY with 2 other VHFs/Bombers, I'd just take it in my stride and fight harder. Remembering that those big capital ships can't do ANYTHING except try kill you, one of the best things to do would be to simply deny them that.
They have no one to kill, they have nothing to do.
So, fight the fighters, the bombers and the gunboats. Fight everything but the battleships (That are not made to fight VHFs or Bombers) and cruisers.
Even better, stop bloody whining. This situation has been around for months, if not even a year at least. If the Admins were going to take action on it, they would have.
Lead by example and hurt them in ways that don't bend the rules.
