Topic: Favorite GW4 missions...

[KBF-Crim]

My personal favorite mission:

A scouting mission where I drafted Paladin's CVA with my D5L...

I was pretty sure it wouldnt effect the DV....but I wanted to see if I could pull off a scan and run against him anyways...

I think we was shocked when I charged him 

I'm amazed I lived to tell about it...wish I had saved the movie

[Dizzy]

...the ones w/o AI...

[KAT Chuut-Ritt]

...the ones w/o AI...

The ones with ai the night we intentionally tortured Dizzy by not allowing him any P v P, drove him nuts.......   Made a refreashing change from just blowing him up......

[Age]

   Mine is when FPF Jem and  I went after Reejir and took him out  and all the Base assaults.

[KBF-Reejr]

Well one of mine is when Kroma drafted me with a scout mission in my khk while I was on the Klingon western front and he was in his cb. He tried one to many het's and had a breakdown. Then he ask for a tow......lol. It took me 5 mins to get the crew back to stations because they were laughing so hard. I would have towed him if I was the one to have drafted him. I had a great time flying on this server.....everyone was a good sport and that made for a good time. 

[FPF-DieHard]

The evenly matched fights are always the best ones.

Most fun for me was between 2275 and 2279 when I was in a CB.  The best night was when I got home drunk and bagged 5 Romulan CAs between midnight and 4 AM EST 

Confession, I hate flying dreads.  90% of the PvP are lopsided run-offs.

oh come on you know running me off was the best time you had DH...90% lopsided run-offs....pffffffffffffft!
man if only i had packed 120 drones instead of 60...lol...then i would have really impressed ya...to death...gg's...oh and it was a real shame that dizzy and i had only flown one match as wings before meeting you and ur fellow bch...but it was fun listening to dizzy yell at me because i didnt want my front shields to die like his did because he just had to follow you with all them phaser 1's and tmines...from what i hear it was a good impersonation of yourself...then again i still think about the time you had to run off the map with no shields...because you was about to die...doom was mad at me on that one because i kept pulling him off your ass because you just wanted to run the line...and i wanted you in the middle of the map...so you couldnt run...i wanted you dead...funny how the ai seems to do just that thing lately...or maybe its just that alliance folk are afraid to reply to a hello...many times this server i drafted peeps and got no response to a hello...then again i saw forfeits as well...funny how it was the same name most the time until he got his bch...

my best were with azteca though...watching him go boom when he was dead because he got stuck in a corner turning into 10 type 4 drones...then having to play 2 more with the guy to kill his ship...to not kill his ship...to then killing myriads...oh how that had such a calming effect and i wasnt so worried about azteca anymore...i mean come on when everyone screams the guy never lasts in a mission when he is getting beat...to flying 2 missions with me...both clocking in at over an hour...not to mention the first that was almost 30min...lol...a fleeting thought azteca became...not worth the time...its like flying 3 GZ matches to get the win you won the first time around...

oh and age...lol...i would most definetly...and did...many a tiime...gg's

oh and i would also like to point out the humor that when a fed runs at 31 and only fires once every couple of minutes or when they are totally "hot" sometimes once every 3 minutes...to when a klingon does the same thing...its called fight or flee...or when a dred has the inclination to only jump above the speed of 15 when they are hot and are packing 16 or more pretties...lol...scared of a little ol c7v with a big ol cva+...just silly...especially when all my pretties were dead...turn about is fair play...a rose by any other name is just as sweet...

[FPF-DieHard]

You've been hanging around Dizzy too much Dib.  I was impressed with you C7V versus my DNH becasue you ALMOST cracked a shield.   

Remember in space, nobody can hear you make excuses

As far as "fight or leave" goes Dib, if you're not gonna bother trying to even dent a shield, you should leave.

Most players with honor respect that rule nowadays. I'm sorry you consider it a point of amusement.

You have learned from Dizzy, never letting the truth get in the way of good smack talk 

[FPF-SCM_TraceyG_XC]

Best matches I had were...

F-CC+ vs. Doomstone's K-D7L (Doomstome did not survive)
F-DNH vs. WarSears' K-C10K (WarSears escaped)
F-DNG vs. MadElf's R-NHK (MadElf drove me off)
F-DNG vs Dizzy's R-NHK (twice, Dizzy dies in under five minutes both times)

Me, Jem and Chuut fighting Dizzy and Agave... very good game. Chuut survives with one point of excess damage left and nothing else, Agave destroyed.

Me and Kroma fighting two of the KHH guys, one in a C7, (sorry I cant remember names). Kroma got killed but the others were driven off (almost got the C7)

Me and Bach fighting someone else in a C7, C7 destroyed.

Me and 762 fighting Agave and LordKreug, LordKrueg was killed, Agave disengaged but only after I sustained heavy damage.

Me and drb (pookie) fighting WarSears and LordKreug, no losses but fun facing all those drnes coming at us (an exercise in fighting drone boats)

And a whole heap of others... Soth, Reejr, the list goes on...

Best 1v1 battle was with WarSears in his C10K. Best pilot I learnt most from was MadElf. Most fun enemy to kill was Dizzy <snicker>.

All good fun nevertheless, I dont think I've had this much PvP since SS2 when I flew Lyran.

and i do believe my statement to that was...dont kid yourself ur #2 shield was black...not my fault you couldnt think to corner me off the map as i have to do to many alliance folk who run at 31...oh thats right you had to drop to a speed 15 after you fired 90% of the time...get some pointers from DH...he's good at chasing me off in his big dn...and you had how many fighters?

Since you insist on beating a dead horse:

* ALL of my shields were at full. The only ints you got on me was when I dropped a mine.
* I had 8 fighters left. I don't see how that's even remotely relevent to you insisting on running around at range 30+.
* As soon as I sped up to 25 you went up to 31.  Again, not relevent. My front was facing you almost the whole time, and you were not even committing enough offense to get through my reinforcement.

So, not only do you disrespect me by refusing to follow the rules, you insult my intelligence afterwards. Par for the course Dib.

Should I send you the film?

Sabre dancing is a legitimate tactic. Tying up a dread by running around the map is not.

[Soreyes]

My favorite missons were the ones where I survived

[FPF-DrAzteca]

I like to think myself as a quiet it and reasonable person. I never get involve in a dispute over a match. Until now. We play 3 matches. U was never even close to beat me. The first, I was wining ( i didnt check the report screen, so I dont know the internals in both ships ),  then, we lost the conection ( Im on dial up ), but im remember U asking me for a rematch. The second game was over an hour, I did 233 internals on u vs 92; U barely made it to the border, with only 3 or 4 phasers left, 12-20 % hull and, Im sure, a pray for the border to get closer; Me, in the other hand, with a few scratches ( not for ur weapons, but for 3 or 4 T-bombs on my front shield ( wich, I remember, I even say to u, nicely done ). The third match wa about 30 min., 136 internals on u vs 36 on me. U ran the whole match until i got u in a corner; U ate an alpha strike at range 6-7, as soon as u got hurt, u turn ur nose to the closer border. U was never even close to beat me.

I dont have the films to prove it. I dont need them, and you, im sure, dont even want to watch them.

In the surrealistic situation that you need one more chance to prove your skill vs me, Im at your service. Just say the time and place.

Take care.


p.s. I do respect the rule, If I dont think I have the chance to win, im not going to make the other guy loose his time. If Im 2 v 1, I also leave.

p.s.s. Im not afraid by drones. I beat one if not the best droner Captain of the Klingons (KBF-WarSear). You should  do yourself a favor and learn just a little part of the class and honor He have.

[KBF-Crim]

Well...I see where this is going....

Lets not go there....it's a silly place...

[762_XC]

The sad thing is Crimmy, it's the same few players who keep taking us there, and nothing is never done about it. 

[Dizzy]

I deleted my post!@ Cant blame me!

I deleted my post!@ Cant blame me!

Why??  ???

[Dizzy]

You likeed it? I'm trying to keep a clean cut image til SG4 launches, then I will degenerate into my primal unchecked raving mad self...

[FPF-Paladin]

I remember that Crim.  It was a DVL though, not a CVA+... I wasn't sure what you were trying to do, and in the end forgot all you had to do was scan and scoot   My bad.

I have a bunch of favorite missions.  Most of them are the ones where I was drafted into 1vs2s, and managed to inflict internals before being run off in a corner.  Incidently, these maps are too small IMHO when if you fly for 5-10+ minutes you're stuck in a corner.  Not enough time for bigger hulls to do or get damaged very much, but we all know the fate that lies for the captain who forgets that the second ship cutting him off in a corner probably will tractor you to death.

I think some of my absolute favorite missions were: Fighting a F-CB in a asteriod field against a dread carrier, actually managing to kill WarSears (just once) and believe it or not, the mission where it was my DVL against WarSears new C10K.  Yes, I smashed into an asteriod, but there you go.

Managed to keep a dread from the first build (2nd day of server) until two days before it ended.  I can't count the amount of times it saw PvP *shrugs*  I'm not a good carrier pilot or even a dread pilot either.  I have to agree with DH though, most of the PvP was running others off or being run off, only a few really fair battles overall.

Look forward to seeing you all again, ally and foe alike.

[Mazeppa]

Two missions come to mind in my abbreviated stint on GW4:

I was playing Tobin Dax in a Rom hex, and managed to run him off in my C7V.  He went into a Fed base hex right above it, and I jumped him again, to drive him off the base hex.  I ran him off again, but not until he had killed my fighters and full load of missiles.  After the battle, was getting away, and got jumped by Kroma, in a fully-stocked BCV.  (Tobin was probably setting me up for this, nice job, Tobin)

We had a 48 minute battle.  I was in pretty good shape, and had managed to kill Kroma's fighters, and I think maybe he was out of scatterpacks and missiles.  So it was gonna be a Saber Dance versus his photons the rest of the way.  It was going to be nip and tuck, but I think I had a small advantage.  Unfortunately, Kroma had to go get his son, so he was forced to leave.  A shame, it was going to be a classic battle. 

Same thing happened with Green.  We had killed each others fighters and we were either low or out of missiles, and he had to leave after 40 minutes of tense battle. 

Mayve I'll see you guys in GW 5, if I can get away, and get my stuff together for a Plasma Ballet!

[Kroma BaSyl]

yes it was, damn 6 year olds and their birthday parties. I had completely wasted my drones and fighters though, as bad as I am at getting photons in arc you probably would have killed me. Guess I could have castled, but time was short and I wasn't sure how you were on drones/shuttles. gg.

Killing FSs Imperial Standard with Bearslayer was a blast, as was Doomstone with Green. The mission with Paladin, where it was me in a NCF and him in the DVL vs the C8V, D5D, and DWL (?) was a fun one, even though we were eventually forced off the map.

Also, every single mission in which I lost a CB was a blast.

Forcing WS to disengage his D5D from my NCF was a small moral victory, as I didn't fall for his baiting to come slug it out. ;-)

Ahem...you ran me off once with your Thoilian BCP when I was in a DWL, and just barely...
After that I captured you when you first logged on as Fed, That was a nifty starting position wasn't it? 
Killed 3 other pilots that way after seeing them griping in general chat about where they started.
You were the only one I took time to capture.
Then I killed you again later and after that you seemd to avoid me...
I think the scotch has addled your memories a little...

[762_XC]

Anyway my favorites in no particular order:

-Myself (NCV) and Bearslayer (CB) taking down Firesoul's Condor-V (any mission in which FS dies is an automatic favorite  )

-Heavy war destroyer battle with Pardek. Classic!

-The last battle of the server - Myself (CVA) J'inn (HDWC) and Komodo (CLC) vs Firehawk (KCRF) and Dizzy (KRCS). (Komodo was not on TS BTW, that's why he ran off and got pwnt!)

[Green]

All were fun, in one way or another.  Getting TacoBell's DN with Bonk and drb, KYTARH's C8VK with Jem, and Doomstone's C8VK with Kroma turned out to be the most important.

But the most enjoyable ones were when I actually had a chance to text chat and just enjoy the game.  Losing (ran) to Mazeppa was enjoyable since I liked the conversation.  And  1+40 "battle" with Dizzy that evolved into a rather enjoyable discussion on tactics with Dizzy providing me with a couple of new points of the game to add.  Very enjoyable Dizzy, and thanks.  I appreciate it.

[Doomstone]

Hm, my favorite was actually a 3v2 with Krueg on my wing vs Kroma, TobinDax, and one other I can't remember, sorry. I was still in the FDW. Me and LK got seperated (my fault as usual) when I drove to press our initial attack from the rear and he didn't. Long story short, LK got run off the map and I didn't even know - I thought he had got blown up until I came out of the mission. I stayed long enough to get (more) internals on all 3 enemy ships, including over 50 thru Tobin's front shields with just my rear-firing phasers while he chased me just barely outside of tractor range. When his CB finally veered off and I came about expecting more fun, they triangulated me into the redline. That was my cue to exit...

Another one was when I got drafted solo vs 2 pilots in my FDW. Again I stayed in the battle and did internals to both ships before exiting. Much fun.

[Dizzy]

I should've just kept my mouth shut and killed you. I think that may have been the second longest mission at 1hr 40mins that I remember having played. It is the ONLY mission where both my opponent and myself spent so much time and netted less than a combined 50 internals.

[Hexx]

Favourites...
The 4 or 5 that I failed HETS in (federation engineering )
The one that I managed to HET and killed EE.
The one where I was escorting DH against (Pardeks?) big shiny ship of doom and DH told me that PArdek would dump all that nsaty plasma at him.
The one against Dizzy was cool, not because I won (I outshiipped him by quite a bit)
But just because I killed him.

[[KBF]MuadDib]

Sabre dancing is a legitimate tactic. Tying up a dread by running around the map is not.

dude u castled very well...only becoming offensive when i didnt play into getting close...which i paid for more than once as i didnt drop below 31 very often...and my fighters only killed one squad before dying which is why i wasnt getting close...especially when i knew you were pumping alot of reinf castling...and had the ability to fire more than 14+ photons at one time in my direction with the launch of ur fighters...you'd be happy if id just commit suicide...sorry man...but not for you...it was all i could do to keep reinforce to withstand the beating u did to my rear as it was...i had no choice but to use what little i could and do my best to do more than i didnt...gg...i bet hexx is gratefull i did stick around and use up all my supplies on you...

I like to think myself as a quiet it and reasonable person. I never get involve in a dispute over a match. Until now. We play 3 matches. U was never even close to beat me.

azteca u too castle very well...the first game you did not...stop by my room in gsa anytime you happen to be there and see me...id be glad to put you in your coffin and send you back to whatever fred planet you came from...as a matter of fact...i do watch the movies...all 3 were gg's...and if you think i was worried about you tractoring me while pushing me in the same direction as i was goin....youve got to be kidding yourself...LMAO is what i was doin...had you stopped or pulled a het to pull me in the other direction...then i might have prayed and met my maker...

[FPF-DieHard]

This is starting to remind me of the GZ forums 

[madelf]

#1  Killing LeRoy's DNL in my KRCS.  Shouldn't be possible.
#2  Fighting DieHards CVA+ in my NHK.  Game came down to the wire, got him to use every consumable, and kiled 3 of his 4 squads.  Wound up getting towed.
#3  Tracey's DNG vs my NHK.  Drove her off the map in an hout and 20 minute mission.  Also goes as one of the most frustrating missions ever, since she never gave me a chance to finish it.  Just like a pretty women to flaunt it, but declare she was satisfied, without letting me finish.
#4  Chuut telling me I had him outnumbered, 1 to 1.
#5  DH in DNh Kroma in BCFF, vs my lil KDP.  No one died, but I'm sure kroma won't be telling his DNH ally to let him 1v1 again.   
#6  Every patrol and Base Assault with Firesoul's KDP on my wing.  THOSE were a blast.  Probably could sell tickets to films of them on Romulus.  When AI have lost all their shields, have stopped due to a ww, have 2 NSM laid on their hulls, waiting to go off, with 8 PF circling, the AI really needs to have a surrender option.
#7  Killing Hexx with a nuke.  Should be worth VCs to actually blow someone's ship up with a nuke, even if it is Hexx.
#8  Hero AI! "Hey, Firesoul, let's let that SPM go in ahead of us into the 2 carriers"  one minute later, all fighters were dead to either the AI's D torps, or from blowing upon the last squad.  That guy deserves a Name.   And an AI SUB's fighters killed a base station before my live wingman and I were done with the defenders.
#9  Vs Kroma and LeRoy.  KDP vs BCV CBF.  "come on Kroma, you know you want me to kill LeRoy"  "That's not the point".  lol

[Hexx]

Ahh thanks Elf

Knew I'd forgotten about something...

[madelf]

Ahh thanks Elf

It's ok if you'd forgotten about that one Hexx.  I wouldn't be surprised if you'd gotten a concussion.

[Hexx]

<sigh>
Bastard
Now I'm gonna have to fly something OTHER than Lyran on War Cruiser hell to kick yer a**.

[Soreyes]

In all honesty I would say my Favorite battle was with WarSears.  I believe he was in a K-DWD or a D5D. I was in a F-NEC. It was back and forth across the map trading drone waves and phaser shots. At the end we had Gutted each other, but WarSears had a bit more power to move away and take me out with a mini drone wave.  

[KAT Chuut-Ritt]

#4  Chuut telling me I had him outnumbered, 1 to 1.

Yup hardly fair of you to fly without Dib as your wingman, shame on you.......
