Topic: Looking for new name.

[Dfly]

I wish to find a new name for an upcoming campaign I will be joining.  Pre-requisites are that it fits into the DFly category(Capital D, Capital F type, with LY at end, or fly at end.).  It must be name to go with Mirak as well.  All help appreciated.  Any thoughts just put them down here and I will gladly choose one of them if any seem apropriate, and later let you guys know which one was chosen.

Thanks.

How about

McFly

[Panzergranate]

DeFLYnate Carnage??

D fur FLYing campaign??

Pusses in Space Boots??

Drone Fest 2007??

Mirak Frewoks Party??

Who'll the Mirak (Kzinti) be up against?? Having current first hand experience of opposing those feline nightmare drone boats, they have my pity.

[Dfly]

The Mirak are up against the LYRANS, and I get to lead Mirak, dont figure eh?

I have been using DroneChucker-FlyCatcher but not happy yet with it.  I do like some of the ideas posted here so far   The campaign has not started yet so I have time to finalize the name.  Maybe a Hydran hint within my name such as Drone-Flatulator?

[Panzergranate]

Playing as the Mirak eh?? Don't plan on loosing then, considering the opposition!!

Just remember that once the Drone racks are empty, you're in trouble. MIrak (Kzinti) ships lack meaningful numbers of direct fire weapons when compared to equal ship classes.

Also Mirak (Kzinti) frigates suck in the extreme with armament similar (or worst) than a freighter when it comes to direct fire weapons. The FH sucks even more than the FF due to lack of power for that ill advised second FA Dis2!!

If only all the MIrak (Kzinti) warships were as badly armed and powered!!

Don't forget to fire staggered Drone waves so as to take out ESG fields. We found this Tactic very effective against Lyrans in an earlier Klingon - Lyran LAN campaign this year. Basically you coordinate between allies to arrange a fire plan or, if alone, hold back all racks except one, fire that one, bring the others on line and fire them as a closely following wave. The lead Drones take out the target's ESG field and the rest do the damage. The Lyran players never figured a tactic to counter this tactic in the campaign and I figure that your opponents won't either.

Have a practice against AI players in skirmish to try it out and perfect the timing of the main wave.

I thank you all for your naming ideas, even one sent in from Green via PM.  It appears so far the overall name looks like:

Just a note for you Panzer.  In SFC:OP the ESG fields work properly.  If 1 is up at range 0, it deals a total of 20 damage before it is dropped.  This means that it takes 5 normal drones just to drop a single ESG.  A ship with 4 up at range 0 would need 20 drones to just take out the fields.  Of course this also means that after they are up for a full turn they drop and are not available for a while, which is when you must press the attack of drones and such.

We're having to face more than 20 Drone salvoes!!

Kzinti are fair game and easy to kill, for a Klingon player, when it's a one on one battle. However it's when they turn up in large numbers that they become a problem.

9 x Kzinti DD chucking out 4 x Drones a piece equals a major nightmare scenario when the human players coordinate their fireplans. Your should see how long it takes them to destroy a Klingon battle station.

Now imagine what 9 x Kzinti CAs can do when human players control them!!

AI is just so much easier to play against compared to human players.

I'm sure our Kzinti LAN opponents could coordinate their Drone firing strategy to sort out any Lyran ESG defence strategy. It would be intresting to try to develop one though.

As Klingons, we've resorted to firing our Drones at theirs, which is a waste or sitting in the radiation field of a star, if there is one on the map. Not much use in open space really.

Have an enjoyable time with your campaign. Even being on the loosing end of a campaign is OK in SFC.
