I recently fought an Asco or somethin' (brigands gunboat) in my challenger, and landing a SNAC on that thing was utter pain in the rear, and requiring 3 consecutive SNACS to actually damage hull... that was brutal, also, EMP cannons despite their infocard were the worst idea at a time.
The guy was simply flying circles shooting me 24/7, and if I tried to align to a shot he simply turned his tail to me and started standard shieldrun maneuver, all while still shooting the hell outta me. I managed to hit his hull twice in 30 minute fight... And i had to shieldrun a lot if I wanted to stay alive.
Also his aim was average at best, if there was someone who would be able to actually shoot he'd take 3 bombers without a sweat. In the end a Roc and Eagle stranded by and after cheapSNACcing a roc I had to bail.
