The three death rule

[McNeo]

not to hijack the thread, but on a somewhat related note about returning to battles, i was involved in a 2v2 cap ship battle recently and it was turned into a 1v1 after one on each side was killed at about the same time, my partner was in another system and ended up not showing up etc.

but the person that died re-spawned and launched from a nearby base, did not fire, but did re-supply my opponent with bots/bats causing them to gain the upper hand and the eventual victory.

sorry about adding this in, but it is somewhat related to returning to battle. or having other ships fly by and hang around for a bit in the middle of a long fight.

Thats more people finding a bloody loop hole again.
Im all for supplying with bots and bats, but only when in battle; if they died, and then they start doing that, just leave the fight, and say "sorry im not going to fight with people who use loopholes".

I dont agree with the three death rule at all. In my opinion, it should be scrapped and just have one death for everyone.

Make characters who are not in a faction not able to get battleships, because then there will be alot less if the high command of all the factions are tight on battleship restrictions.

This way, the only things we will see everywhere are cruisers and gunboats, not a match for many many bomber pilots here.

Also, Doom, in your place, i would have, as soon as I saw the huntress cruiser engageing me, left the batte and said "sorry, no dice, Corsairs helping Navy, no way". But thats just me.

I'll look out for those neutral ID people in transports...
