Will our T/As and T/Bs have warheads?

Calder · Post by **Calder** » Fri Aug 20, 2004 11:12 pm

This has already been addressed in numerous emails, but I will clarify again: only "bomber" units will have warheads: this will be one squadron of enemy B-Wings and one squadron of our own TIE Bombers. Each will be equipped with proton torpedoes (NOT advanced torpedoes). T/A will not have torpedoes, nor will T/I have missiles.

It will work out fine, though. We have more than enough fighter power to suppress their B-Wings until we can destroy the cruisers and frigates with our ISDs.

In my practice scenario, the ISDs were taken down, and they only had destroyed, like, one of the cruisers. Maybe I wasn't fast enough taking down their bombers. Is there a key that targets a bomber, or will that just be the "o" key?

Target the Nemesis and push "e". That should bring up a B-Wing.

However, I found when I flew it that more attacks need to be focused on the Xs and As. They tend to rip TIEs apart unless we destroy them first.

Also, you should know that the ISDs in the battle with RS will be piloted with real pilots. This way, they'll have much better judgement and fire control (well, maybe not this last one) than the AI.

Righto, I don't suuppose anyone has heard anything about this (I mean from the RS side of things)?

Okay, I just talked with the RS people today (the good Captain asked me to get on that, which I have been doing

), and we've just set up a time and date for the XWA skirmish that we'll be flying with (or against) them. Here are the details:

Date: October 16, 2004
Time 17:00 GMT (or 5:00 PM)
IRC Meeting Room: T.B.D.

I want a new sign up right now of who's going to fly. All you need is a working copy of XWA and some piloting skills.

Get moving!

I should be able to fly.

I'm flying...

*thinking: i'm still trying to be able to get into the Nemesis's captain's chair for just one battle, just once.*

That date should work for me; I'll let you know if it doesn't. When do we know what craft we'll be flying?

I am at your command.

As usual.

**Solidisen waves hand** I call T/A

Post by **Jagged Fel** » Fri Oct 01, 2004 8:36 pm

If it has shields, I'll fly it (except GUN or T/B, need more speed

)
Oh, and can we get beams? I want the extra speed boost.
