That thing pretty much took down a whole fleet though.
Don’t worry it has airbags.

Hey, Ixranin, I can't mod my ship (the Hive-class Carrier) just now, do you mind upgrading the HP for the front two sections until its up to a hundred points for me?

I can't think of much else to do with it.

Well... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fl2zss_17DM

The last two bosses are going to be a slaughter, but there's a chance at the other 3. We'll have to see.

i think we lost. Was my ship very, very slow, or was everyone else too fast?

The last ship was really really slow. But at least it blowed some sections up.

Only just realised my ship(the very slow one) took anything out. I through the enemy ship stayed completely intact. At least the ai set up the deflectors right, and it lasted quite a while :D

Whose ship was it that pulled the Leeroy Jenkins at the beginning?

Some points:
- The driver ship was pretty cool to look at
- The other ships took several minutes to show up and I was seriously wondering if alpha just had 4 ships for a little bit
- Nice ship Lloyd.

PS. Ix, are you going to be around this nov/dec/jan? This tourney was just awesome and it would be cool if you had time to do another one.

Probably. I can see some improvements in the point system to be made, and I've thought of some possible designs. What I worry about though is that the number of people who participate in tournaments seems pretty low these days.

I dunno, just don't think there really has been a good one for a while. I'd love to try again frankly.

also, would it be possible to get dl's of the bosses for testing purposes?

I was out of sight for a sevond, and a ruthless battery of weapons later I'm dead.

No real surprises here. You guys did take down 1 Berdysz though. Venator's tank did a good job of holding off bosses, but usually by the time it was acting as the tank, most the rest of the team was already destroyed.

(The Berdysz match was extremely long, so the video only shows the first part. After the Larva is destroyed, the Berdysz move in on the Aegis Lancet Battleship, swat away the Bruise Cruiser, then chase the Aegis Lancet Battleship to the top-right corner. They sit there for about 15 minutes while Lloyd's ship creeps across the map, blows off the Berdysz' engine and shield blocks, then the Berdysz split up to flank and destroy the Aegis Lancet Battleship then Lloyd's ship.)
