OK, to save threads I'm going to ask a few question all at once - so bear with me 
Is there a healthy PVP DS thing going on above Kettemoor? Not seen that many Kette pilots posting in here and just wondered what was going on up there - something? Or nothing?
Hacking me way through the 3rd Teir atm and have been looking at the PVP load outs that have been posted on here recently - lots of "Reward Engine"'s mentioned - as these engines look like just the thing for my poor little Tie Int - what the hell do I have to do to get that reward? Here hoping that it's not been nerf'd.
Last, and proabaly least, as I think I already know the answer - Tie Bombers - Mmmmm look at all that mass, it looks inviting to me, and 2 launchers and guns! Joy!
I'm guessing that it handles like a brick in honey, but I'm wondering if it is of any use at all - especially for teir 3 madness.
Thanks

you get the reward engine somewhere in tier3 for completing one of your advancement missions. 3rd or 4th.
it has 79 speed, 63PYR but sucks a lot of power and is quite heavy. still very good material for REing.
dont worry about the engine being nerfed - it hads been nerfed allready.
the original reward engine had a speed of 92.x that could be REed up to 95.9.

Bomber's great, once you learn how to fly her.
Just remember...50% throttle = best turning speed, but she's real swingy...once you got her turning, she doesn't want to stop.
But, if you throttle up, she wants to stop turning real quick lol.
Learn to fly it well, and you'll decimate with level 7 then lev 8 stuff

sometimes i'm around in deep space, generally there are not many guys there but in last days i saw some imperials players.
generally i use my rebel ace in deep space and occasionaly the imp... it depends by mood eheh 
for the bomber....
at T3 is viable, even if i still prefer the int, remember to use at least engine overload3 (eo4 is better), and to fit also a good booster to get some distance from enemies...
it depends also by missions you are flying, if you will face fast and nimble enemies the bomber can have some problems, if enemy fighters will be medium or heavy you should have not much troubles after a bit of practice.

I can count the number of people I've found in Kette's deep space on one hand, and none of them were rebel.
I've been up there a couple hours every other day too grinding faction.

The bomber is working out OK-ish, a new eingine/booster and better overloads should solve most of it's problems though.
A well if there are no Imps up in space I'll just have to get uour little lot up to ace andflying around up there - see if we can find anything to play with

I found that space isn't entirely dead on Kettemoor, it just doesn't wake up until I'm logging normally. Starts heating up around 9pm central, goes pretty late I'm being told. I recommend hopping on to the Kettemoor forum, there have been alot of pilot discussions there recently. Most recent developments have been Imperial mission nights, we had one last night, and trying to organize a large space battle.

Ah ok - Thanks for that.
Might even be able to hold my own soon - just polished off Teir 3 - welcome back to the grind
