“He who fights and runs away, lives to fight another day”

With that in mind … when I get in over my head, is there away to escape, run, hide or make a quick get away in JTL’s space combat?

My boosters don’t last long enough and I can’t seem to ‘hyperspace’ during combat, hence my ship is always destroyed :-(

In the ground game I could always ‘Burst Run” or jump on my speeder bike which I always conveniently parked near by just in case of an emergency.

I've escaped by hyperspace a few times this weekend. start to calculate the jump and the hit your boosters and do as many rolls and turns you can. In the end you only need to worry about 5 seconds then you are clear.

"Are you threatening me Master Jedi?"

It really depends on your engines. Even with 875 stock speed on my X-Wing and booster'd speed of 1095, I couldn't pull away from most fights. After I got my A-Wing (max booster speed of 1250), that changed. But I found out that I was so maneuverable that I didn't have to worry about running away.

And here I thought it was "He who fights and runs away lives to run another day...."

On topic hyperspace jumping has saved me quite a few times already.

It seems I just need to refine my hyperspace skills..
