With all due respect to the Captain; although I think training is a great idea, it is my calculated opinion that the battle was lost due to a lack in communication-- through no fault of anyone in particular. I say this because after analyzing the enemy's attack, I realized they were all targetting the same pilot at any given point. Systematically they shot us down. Having said this, I've recently upgraded my comm system to one of the new Skype 3.2.0.175 models, however my transmitter for this machine is taking some time to install. I'm eager to test it with the commencement of the Captain's resourceful notion pertaining to formal training sessions. Another observation was that we were obviously being out-maneuvered. Lt. Archer informed me he has recently aquired permission to fly an RH Phantom Light Fighter. Perhaps it may be wise to outfit more of the men with this agile craft?
On a side note, earlier before these seemingly non-stop attacks on Rheinland there was a petty smuggler named IceTea_TheLiptonkind who was caught with illegal artifacts outside Planet New Berlin. He refused to drop them, refused to pay his fine, and refused to follow any sort of RP at all. Unfortuneatly, he made it planetside and went underground, evading local authorities ((He logged off-- but not before a fair amount of mouthing off)). I suggest he be placed on our KoS list until he pays his fine which I also suggest be raised from the 2mil misdemeanor mark, to the 4mil felony level infraction.
