"There is NO viable defense against Kapteyns or Muons apart from running many F90s which are very rare unless your me and I have 7 he he."
... Well, a nice set of blasters and/or some missile launchers with optional FoF load would be a good start. Often the best defense is the right offense ;s

""This is where you sanity gives in" do you perhaps listen to The Cardigans?"
*smiles slightly* Very acute, Mr.Hayden; Gran Turismo indeed made its way into my player yesterday ;s

"If there was a FoF Torpedo, that'd be a better start. Have been completely locked out by 2 birdies, as you well know. Had a sensor strength around 19, which was rather pointless. Had 4 launchers firing FoF cruise missiles on autorepeat and drones.
I think the drones caused more damage than the cruise missiles...Of course that's before they got squashed in the Battle of the Splash Damage  "
Yup, i know ^^ 'Tis a somewhat different case, since being jammed renders your guns useless while if you have short range guns you can still fight the ship which tries the dampeners on you... but now that i think of it, getting literally against the hull of the other ship could've perhaps made things easier for you as well --
the Blackbirds' defenders would be no longer effective due to short range, so your missiles would deal far more damage to them.
Plus, their own missiles would be doing splash damage to their own ships...
given the EW Blackbirds aren't usually equipped with shield boosters or any similar defenses, and their shields and armour are pretty weak, could've forced them to bail out due to danger of achieving nothing but an impressive suicide ;s

"Joephine
Try and learn PvP before commenting eh :) Your blasters would not be able to target me as you would have no target range due to my kapteyns. With 4 on, you would have a range of about 4km."
... Sweetie, check the numbers before you shoot your mouth off =) The large blasters have optimum of about 3k, half of that with antimatter ammo. The fact you reduce the enemy's target range to 4k won't matter to a battleship literally humping your hull.
"Your nice FoF missiles would be toast each time I activate my large smart bomb."
Your large smartbomb has quite significant activation time, longer than even single launcher. What good will it do against multiple launchers, when the missiles take 1-2 seconds to cover the distance due to short distance? Not as much as you think :s
"So now what you gonna do? Lick me to death? Perhaps bump into me huh? Yes you could close range but I will be set to keep range at 15km so unless your much faster thats going to be hard work. You will be dead by the time you get to my hull I can assure you!!
All the while you have 4 torps and two tachs raining on you and you have perhaps 45 secs to live and your relying on FoF missiles LOL."
I would rather worry about splash damage from your own torpedoes, and what your precious tachyons are going to hit at extremely close range ;s And yes, someone configured for close range combat is also going to be set up for fast movement and/or keeping the enemy in place, so i wouldn't count on keeping that safe distance from them much....
"Please if your going to comment on ECM try and understand what it is and what the modules actually do!!!"
*sighs* i use ECM; each time we go out my life pretty much depends on either me or the other people in the group getting the stuff work right. So really, no need for that screaming and all that arrogant "only i have the brains to know how the **** works" stance...

"Meet me for 1v1 j0sephine :) Winner takes all.
I will come with my best loadout so plenty of goodies for you if you win! I am on every night and you can find me around Aunenen fighting pirates. I am prepared to put my money in place of my mouth on this issue! Are you??? Bring who you like as a referee.."
*smiles* I have yet to find goot incentive to spend money on personal battleship on Tranquility, but that just might be it ;s Will look you up in some week or two, ok?
(i don't think referee is needed... as for the loot... given my past record of missile accidents, not really counting on it... *>>*;
