    • War Stories, Anybody?


      All right, this topic is created specifically for people to tell (brag) about some of the best battles that they've had. (Disco Bison, Dreadnought, etc.)

      ------------------

    • now, you dont wanna hear my stories, those take too long, at least the ones where i fight UE, Ziddie, and Iggie warfleets with a fighter, but no, those take too long. Of course, theres the ones where i betrayed the Voinians, with the exact same fighter, and those take even longer.

      ------------------
      and doesnt it make you feel better, the pigs have won tonight. They can all sleep soundly now, and everything is all right

      hey pig, yeah you, hey pig piggy pig pig pig

    • Does knocking off John Cook in a (not upgraded at all- bar the escape pod and with the fighters lost somewhere) UE Cruiser count?

    • i remember the day that i saved talon karrde from space pirates...gosh...how did it go again?

      ------------------
      Damnit! I wiped out ANOTHER race! Oh, well, nobody cared about THEM anyway...stupid tribbles...

    • What ARE you talking about, Piemur. It was the other way round! You were flying that crappy shuttle of yours which just HAPPENED to have a forklift, when you were jumped by 5 voinan cruisers. I decided to help out. I just happended to end up in the blast radius when those ships detonated. When you picked up my escape pod, my 50 M. mod. Igazra was just so much space dust. :mad:

    • John Cook is fine, or whatever you feel is a cool battle. BTW, have any of you met up with a little invincible azdara dude?? I HATE HIM!!!! I had raided about six Igzaras (hadn't landed for a while) when he pops up and comes after me!! I only just got away! And now I can't find him anywhere, when I'm ready for him! It's driving me INSANE!!

      ------------------

    • look, because the azdgari dudes are so godlike that they rarely appear

    • I once destroyed a (url="http://"http://www.geocities.com/evosite/shipyard.html#uecruiser")UE Cruiser(/url) in a (url="http://"http://www.geocities.com/evosite/shipyard.html#uefighter")UE Fighter(/url) during a mission to protect Ylynn Outpost when I was just doing Voinian missions for fun...I don't remember how, I just remember that I got really, really lucky. I think there was a (url="http://"http://www.geocities.com/evosite/shipyard.html#vfrigate")Frigate(/url) helping me, but it died pretty quickly. I had upgraded my cannons and turrets to phase, though, since those weapons can destroy anything except Voinians pretty easily, and I was on the Voinians' side. 🙂

      Did you kill him? I hate him too!!! I was working for the Zidagar that time, and I was destroying every Azdgari ship I could find, and I attacked this Azdara...and it started attacking me, and in about 30 seconds my (url="http://"http://www.geocities.com/evosite/shipyard.html#cresw")Crescent Warship(/url) was space dust :mad: ...but I hadn't upgraded it fully then. So if I see him now, I'll blast him to pieces so tiny they'll go through microfilament mesh... 🙂

    • As Oedipus said, your not too likely to catch up with the little azdara again. But yes, I killed the little blighter. 😄 I don't remember if he had an escape pod, I don't think so. He was zippin around, taking out about 4 zidaras while I was waiting in the wings, planning my strategy. My first idea was that I could take him out with turrets alone. Nope. As he's zinging around me, I let loose a batch of Defence pods. Miss. I tried it again. Partial hit, dropping him to 36%, which quickly became 100%. Next time though, BOOM! almost all my pods hit home, and he's gone, just like that. 🙂

      ------------------

    • ive killed John Cook (with some help) and Andrew Welch (just don't tell him 😉 )

      one of the big battles I fought was the first time i destroyed the Voinian Dreadnought, I had various crescent escorts and at that time didn't knew that phase weapons are crap against armor but I won the battle anyway (the escorts were all killed) with my UE Carrier but that was a long time ago, this is just of the many battles ive fought 😉 .

    • yeah, first battle with dreadnought is always tough, I had a lotta trouble there

      ------------------

    • Did you do it before you knew how to Monty? Now THATS hard.

      ------------------
      I guss Hucked on Fonex werked fer you tew.

    • That's when I figured out the Monty Python. In that battle with the dreadnought. Because I didn't have a really good ship (Frieght-Courier, specifically) It was either give up and abort, or find some way to beat it. I discovered the webboards later in my EVO career, and consequently learned that my technique had a name, the Monty Python.
