Damn, I was looking forward to seeing Angel's battleship :D

Well things have gone completely crazy, we're starting the first run as soon as the maintenance break is over and we'll do as many runs as people stick around for :D

In other words, Sam, you haven't missed it yet.

Er is it just me or can everyone else get the server up in the listings? and before anyone asks, yes I know it's in the wrong thread and yes I've tried the direct IP as well as the Global listing.

Well the event happened and was fun, despite a very late start. Again, thank you phantoms for being on time. The devastator crashed 5 times, but as Angel said its very difficult to stop a battleship on a mission like this (but not impossible).

1st Run - Stuttgart to New Berlin (non-fixed route)
With SB/NB, 5km cruise disable zone around new berlin (ie. devastator restricted to 90).
Defense was encountered on Stuttgart side of the jump-gate to new berlin, making it difficult to dock. Eventually, docked and found a BS on other side and somebody with a very effective cruise disrupter (nice try). Managed to escape and then smooth sailing to new berlin.

2nd Run - Dresden to New Berlin (non-fixed route)
With SB/NB, 10km cruise disable zone around new berlin.
Um....can't really remember much about this one. Devastator crashed.

3rd Run - Dresden to Frankfurt to New Berlin (fixed-route)
With SB/NB, 10km cruise disable zone around new berlin.
No defense encountered until approaching new berlin from frankfurt. Everything firing on the devastator for the last 10km. Made it, but SB/NB made a difference.

4th Run (Angel shows up :D) - Stuttgart to New Berlin (fixed route)
With SB/NB, 10km cruise disable zone around new berlin.
First attempted approach to the jump-gate failed, all phantoms destroyed (except the devastator) and was forced to regroup and think. Approached the gate from two sides, some from the tradelane, others (including the devastator) from Darmstadt Depot, and caught the lone jump-gate guard sleeping (or at least that's what I figured, he wasn't in the way). Once docked, approached New Berlin again encountering heavy fire during the last 10km. Again SB/NB made a difference. I think we should of lost this one, but got lucky at the jump-gate.

5th Run - Stuttgart to New Berlin (fixed route)
No SB/NB for Battleships, 10km cruise disable zone around new berlin.
Defense entirely centered around the front side of new berlin. Phantoms approached from tradelane, devastator from bottom avoiding front portion of planet. Easy win.

Recommendation of a Defensive Plan for this Event: Dock at new berlin or somewhere close and move your ship to the other side of an appropriate jump-gate. Blockading the gate would make it difficult for the battleship to come through. Fixed-route makes the blockading even easier. In the event you die, you would be in position to come back at the end.

If anyone can remember the Defense vs Phantoms numbers for each run that would be a nice thing to note.

1st Run: ? vs ?
2nd Run: ? vs ?
3rd Run: 6 vs 4
4th Run: ? vs ?
5th Run: 5 vs 3

Watch for the story in the sci-fi roleplay thread, its going to be a little different than expected.

Last night was a good'un. I only stuck around up to run 3.

The numbers were about 6 v 4 on the 3rd run.

K, people need to read more carefully date and time descriptions. I couldn't have made the time any clearer without specifying each time-zone (which I shouldn't need to do if I give you GMT). I even posted about the event three times with the same date and time.

Those of you that were confused about the time, I'm sorry you missed it or were confused but it is here in black and white (well blue and white). Please do not whine about the time being inconvient, I'm sorry but my events will be organized around my schedule. For me the best time for a long event is Saturday starting around 11pm GMT which is 3pm Pacific.

PS: Not saying anyone is whining, just please don't start.
