I was damn juicy target right?
I think you put the "only" in the wrong place. Looked like a damned good fight, though, much better than most fights involving Keepers/Das Wilde. Kudos to all involved!
Battleship , 2 Cruisers and fighters vs Gunboat and fighters
No wonder Keepers aren't all that active these days.
In my opinion , the fight should have looked something like / Order - only fighter/bomber ships and one battleship that was there only to put up an RP while the fight was taking place.Instead you jumped them with all you got.
Well since you killed some Keepers. It wont be a bad idea to make up and RP topic about learning something new about them.Thats the best that can come up of this battle.

Flt.Admiral_Mira, the one flying the advanced battlestar, talked to the keepers before hand (from what I heard) and told them that if they'd wait a few minutes, she'd switch to a fighter to make the fight more 'fair'. They refused.
At the time of the initial fight, the only people around were myself (Zoner destroyer), Mira (in the battleship), and another independent order pilot in a talarca cruiser.
They still managed to destroy mira, myself, and a couple others before they lost the battle. We may have outnumbered and outgunned them, but those nomad fighters/bombers are nearly impossible to hit if you ask me (though my aim sucks), and all of them were exceptional pilots.
Not only that, but of the people that joined in later - two of them were AGAINST us (the bounty hunter attacked both sides, and the outcast went after order/corsair ships and ignored the nomads).
It wasnt quite as lopsided a battle as it seems at first glance.
Minor corrections: I counted three cruisers on screenshots: Vols (Talarca), Aki.Kimura (Zoner Destroyer), The.Seeker (Corsair Cruiser). BH and Outcast must have joined after, haven't seen them.
Good fight anyway.
p.s. I did not receive anything about delay to switch to fighter. It's always better to PM me in-game anything of OOC kind. The rest aren't likely to reply at all.
Great fight, though I didn't do anything but fly around for the first half of the battle. Too much lag from being in the conference call with the keepers:laugh:... though I put the call on hold and fought after a bit.
And in almost every battle where it's caps + fighters against bombers + whatever, the caps will always die first. When three coordinated bombers SN the same target at the same time, it gets taken down pretty darned quickly.
