..because they looked like they were gonna be short on pilots in AOTK2 and I got attached to them.

[FPF-Tobin Dax]

hmmmm....

[FPF-Tobin Dax]

or...

[Dfly]

because everybody loves to hate them

[Dizzy]

because they r so overrated and so underplayed to the point they are crunchy!

[GDA-Agave]

.......because I can't fly plasma ships well enough to kill my opponents with just plasma & phasers (and suicide shuttles)

    

[Farfarer]

...they aren't uber cheesy. 

Oh, and their ships are so, very, very clean and sanitary compared to the 'you-know-who'.

ISC tone poem to our enemies:

Fear.
Fear draws the fearful.
Fear draws the strong, the brave, the innocent, the weak, the corrupt . . .

Fear is my ally.

I sense much fear in you.

.....Hydrans can't starcastle against them 

[FPF-DieHard]

 . . . becasuse sometimes Federation just ain't Cheesey enough 

[el-Karnak]

Oops, forgot another one!!

. . . because droners die against the PPD.

[Dizzy]

When are they gonna fix it so PPD's can fire at Plasma?

[Flywh33l]

Noone flys them. atleast no where near the head count of feds and klinks. there ships are fun to fly. but C-7 is still my over all favorite. there ships are cleaner and more sanitary. They do look cool. PPD is way fun and looks cool. i lack the skill to use ships with less guns and adequite engine power.   

[Julin Eurthyr]

The ISC believes in quality over quantity...

Their main phasers all can fire in the FA arc...

The "W" refits provide "adequate" PD against most "normal" droners...

The Pl-I is cool and effective, if a bit of a power hog.  Nothing like watching 2-3 PFs pop at once...

They have late era engines on all versions of their ships, making their early cruisers act like "fast" cruisers...

The "Stealth" turn modes and BPV levels:  The CL / CS is about as powerful as many CCs, at turn mode C.  The CAs are closer to BCH levels at turn mode D...

They have their own tactic, the Echelon formation.  Too bad it's almost a necessity to make some of their ships work...  (DN anyone?)

And the usually mentioned PPD...

Hey, you calling me a cracker!!

cool! I'm on camera!

And to think I spent many seconds smudging out your name so Karnak wouldn't make nasty remarks about your parentage for having a droner get you.

Having seen Karnak's drone defense skills, I think you have little to worry about Risky

Messa beat up F-CADs  in SG4. Messa also beat U up in a Z-MCD in IDSL many moons ago. U go Taco Bell real good.

I only do bad against droners when I am winging with Dizzy and DH cuz they are so high-strung and it's fun to hear them flip out on TS.

PS. I also lost against WarSears and DarkElf. No shame in that.

Meesa think you loco. I no play on dyna back when IDSL ran. Meesa GSA ladder refugee. Arrive on seen after that was  history.

Meesa first dyna venture into flying mirak was GW series. Meesa remember in GSA smushing you CAZ and FBF ladder guys BCF, with meesa BCF in 3 way FFA a few months after SS2 meesa remember.

[FPF-Tobin Dax]

OMG, MCC is not a dr0ner!!

Point taken, but I used it as such. 12 drone control. I took the ppd hits and ran in and tractored and dropped an SP and then followed up with the type 4s loaded in the B and C racks. Dizzies just speeded up the inevitable.

[Riskyllama]

Ass a side note to DH..see i told you i do stupid things against droners..

Messa was prolly messing around cuz messa was too used to playing SFC3 back then and we don't use T-Bombs so messa could not hit a drone pack with a super-big boomer T-bomb back then; and, messa prolly had DH as wingman and went *raspberry* when hessa say to messa to usssa the F1 view so that the T-bomb boomer go BOOM!! in the right spot.  BTW, did he go BOOM!!  too?  That would be okey-dey.

Failed to mention what ship you were in there, also I was new then, still I don't think I'd be likely to you take out a CCZ with a MDC on minimum reloads even today

I was flying a I-CAZ.  I thought the little drone spirals were pretty and I got a little dizzy try to follow them all.

Could have sworn I saw 2 PPDs on that boat, perhaps it was a CCY, think I left rather quicky anyhow, but so long ago I'm not positive 

Since then I think I've gutted your ships several times on GSA with scatterpacks

MCC with 12?

0.o

Now that I think of it:  it was an I-CAY. Yer right about the GSA tourneys back then, but messa is a new Frog ever since I posted this thread:

http://www.dynaverse.net/forum/index.php/topic,163361467.0.html

It brought back all the tactic reminders I had when I first did SFC full-time in 2002/3.  Plus, I got my connection fixed so I got more PvP practice in.  Other than messing around with DH and Dizzy in a EEK Convoy Escort to demonstrate to them that U can PvP in EEK convoy missions, I did pretty good in SG4.  I had one Gorn kill, fought toe-to-toe with my I-CAY against a FSD L-BCP thingie and survived, ran off a F-BCG with my I-CCY (had a wing helper there though), and ran off some F-CADs.

The thread had good tactic info. Against the F-BCG, I stayed at speed 24 and kept my Plasma S torps as a deterrence from closing in on me, my PDs took care of the drone waves, chuck out some Pseudo-Torps to freak the Fed out, and the PPDs kept relentlessly pounding the Fed until he had no choice but to Taco bell.

Holding onto the S torps and staying at speed 24 saved me with the L-BCP.  I was intimidating him everytime I turn towards him cuz he would turn away. I guess 2 S torps are a big ouchie. But, he got me once with his ESGs on a sweep that went too close and I had to go. 

Messa pretty PvP happy now.

Well it depends if you're talking about one of the hard to use Lyran carriers or one of the cheesy
press laucnh and win the game other race's carriers.

Agreed the droner requires more skill.  The least skill is required for X-ships.

[RFA-Wraith]

most others hate them

Ass....is never a side note to DH.   It's always on his mind.
