What is the big deal about missiles? Even my 50k inteceptor has room for chaff launcher.

there's probably a bit of "man i should be immortal in my IGI/JSF/B22" too. i get that occasionally.







yeah... I love the tells I get when I take them out with my interceptor... "ur cheating there is no way u can beat me in that ship"

There's no way you can beat me in that ship! You're a haxxor!



J/K, Pace...you're a pretty good pilot. I'll see if I can run into you once or twice once I get a non-Actis ship set up for PvP.

Just FYI:

Missles use does not warrent EP3 use. Misslse can be countered, EP3 has no counter.

The only legit use for EP3 i would think, is for taking out other things that have no effective counter, like RGI's.

Of course, this is Bria we're talking about, theres no such thing as flying the "queensbury rules" and flying for fun there. Its all about "teh win" and pwning, so anything goes, right down to exploited ship parts.

i used to get mad about missils, then i packed a chaff, now its no big deal, and epulse is a valid tactic, otherwise it wouldnt be in the game......got a problem with epulse......kill faster

but yeah, me and kreindhild are weird, we would rather fly a wings or high mass starter ships over bel22s or JSF's, it makes the kill funnier, becasue a lot of those pilots think that theyre untouchable in space..but theyre not

and yes leaph, you would like the new pilot squadron we have, deviant kinda fell apart, there was a lack of interest for a while, then i quit rebel pilot to get the jsf (realized i don't want it anyways) and when i came back and had to remaster pilot, i really got back into flying, then others formed a new squadron, and weve been making new ace pilots almost every day it seems with more and more of us patrolling deepspace

yes, this is true on ground and in space. almost makes me wish i could character transfer my jedi, i'm all about the rules and fair fighting lol, imps on bria don't understand the word FAIR... example. i was in dant MO and got jumped by guys who i was guild warring. there was a TKM/MDoc against me, and he needed an outside healer against me. then when another person from his guild shows, (jedi) he wonders why i fled. DUH.. 2v1 + the 2 have an outside healer..... what would you do? they talked smack to me for about half an hour. i got called every name ever made.. my language filter was busy.. and all i saw was &$^%$&$&$^%&$^%*&^%%^*^$^%#%$#@#$@%#%$#*^%$#%$#@%$@#$&$%#%$@%$@^%$@&$#%$&$@%^$@#%$&#$&%@%$&$#@&%$#$.... wow.. that was fun

I would love to do that Actis or non doesn't matter. I've kind of wanted to run into you for a while now. Probably because I have a death wish... Tomo told me once..."Halyn is one of the top pilots on the server. Try to have a few others with you if you attack him." Then after you lead about 10 of us Imps for about 10minutes around that thing in Dantooine. I knew that I had to fight you one on one, just to experience it.

One of the reasons I love Kett. Its not quite to the level of "Queensbury", but its unspoken that you just don't do some things if you don't need to. More like "Satayana's Rules".

I hate when people say that, because every time I hear that, I'll go up and get blown up three or four times in a row without a kill.


I'm pretty sure you're referring to the fight around the mining station at Dathomir. I wasn't fool enough to move away from the only cover I had...I had to use that station to keep some of your laserfire and missiles off me. 1 Rebel+ 10 Imps = dead Rebel. I think it was Tomo that got me in the end with a missile.


I've actually pretty much sworn off using the Actis. I use it once in a while for random PvP in Deep Space, but I've decided to make a conscious step away from it for the events. When Tomo comes back, I'll probably have to load it up again to keep up with him, though...well, to try to keep up, anyways. I ain't Leaph--I think complete mastery of an A-wing, and using it to keep up with RotW ships,is a bit beyond me.
