I wish my ship did a little better. I'm more of a fast beamer person so this was a first attempt. Oh well, it didn't die.

I should have decreased my AI range and gave it some more speed...while it did live until some stray tachyons blew off the left aegis, It didn't seem the plasmas were doing much :S

Serves me right for using something other than beamers. Should have just massed scatterbeams again.

lol @ boxale that just sat on the core and lanceted off weapons. that was funny.

Not to mention absorbing a crapload of fire with its Aegises. Damn hilarious. Oh well, we'll have to see how the team fares against the other bosses...

*highfives the rest of Team Beta*
That was pretty awesome. I wonder how Plea for Death and Boxale will do on the bosses not so vulnerable to them...

Yeah, should have done a fast beamer.

Just so you know. G.T. is just going to slaughter us.

Damn, this sucks. Heliotrope's performance is abysmally sub-standard. :(

Another good looking Boss! Very interesting design with the Y-shaped tail being key. That allowed the boss to fire past the leading edge shield defences of the ships that had flanking AI and had closed in on the tail. Very sweet design!

Looking forward to the rest of the bosses - go team Beta, lets try to get the rest of them!

That long-ranged blaster boat and the plasma boat did really well. 6 more similar to them, and the aeon would have gone down.

I'm going to guess at team Beta's future performance:

3-boss: win
aegis boss: lose
Fast boss: lose
GT: win
???: lose

And when will you combine alpha/delta?

boxale is too slow...

But it does end up as a great fire absorber, there were just so many guns packed in its sitting area.

Too many missiles makes boss a Boxy wannabe. :-D

Boxale got pwned by missiles when it tried to sit on the core. hat said, it did take all the missiles for a while.
And wow, my ship lived till the end? O_o

ASM, BoxOGuns works just fine! (as illustrated by this battle). It probably was the single ship that did the most damage (my plasmas kept missing).
