Really, one of the most entertaining things in all these events has been watching Adonis kick so much ass in a ship everyone else considers a deathtrap.

And yeah, I only made it in time for the last battle--boring car stuff prevented me from getting there on time--but that last one was just crazy. My favorite part was shooting Brullig with a couple missiles, heh heh, haven't seen the ol' chef in a while. Though hearing about how your TeamSpeak lit up when you spotted me was pretty fun, too.

I tell you, you get rusty in a hurry, though. I was still fine on the evasive side, but I couldn't hit the broad side of a barn.. and after the battle I realized I'd been hitting the wrong button for my chaff. That might have helped.

You Rebs have really put it together, though, and I love the combined arms we're seeing out there now. For a few weeks I was afraid it was going to end up as the Eta-2/B-22 showdown, but the X's and that B-Wing really liven things up. I think it's a wise tactical decision, too. This is the best the PVP scene's looked in a while.

Good to see you back, Tomo. Err...sort of. I was pretty happy with the balance of ships on both sides of the aisle (other than the RGI--I despise that ship because of its hitbox /BeatDeadHorse). Looking forward to missiling your aft repeatedly at the next event.
