A gunboat doesnt have a prayer against a lone bomber...

The gunboat is the smallest of the capital ships and all its good for is fighting VHF npcs. As they are they have no place in PC RP.

Ok ... if you say so. Usually takes a minimum of 2 bombers to take out a gunboat. I've been in many gunboat vs bomber fights. I always come out the winner against a single bomber. Trouble is ... you never see a single bomber without a second bomber showing up out of nowhere. The only time 2 bombers took me out was when I tried to role play with them while they took my shields down and nearly wiped out my bats/bots. Strange how bombers wanna get straight to the PVP with minimal RP.

bombers are afraid of fighters showing up yo kill them.

but it does take skill for a pilot to solo a gunboat.

To be brutally honest, I think this sums up my thoughts on this matter:
CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?

Much like that statement, this is a situation that depends on how you want it to be.
A gunboat can easily win against a bomber.
A bomber can easily win against a gunboat.

LINKUS SHUT UP WITH YOUR CAT ALREADY
i don't get the 'joke' i might have missed something, this is not flood!

i Reckon it depends on the gunboat, a fat-arsed GRN bun-goat or a sleek Outcast sun-ghip?

there are the slow GB's that could only kill bombers with a skilled pilot, but the bomber would have a hard time since they have more armour, while there are the agile gunships that can easily dodge SNACs and nova's and pluck up to 2 bombers from the sky with ease

in my only gunboat, the Asco, i took 26 SNACS repgrinding, reguardless i saw a large many fly by (NPC's + SNACS = uuuurrrggghhh)

This is so wrong.

Gunboat is the type of ship that can take out most other types of ships:

Fighters, bombers, other gunboats and noob-driven cruisers.

This is so pointless that it's actually funny. You know, I soloed a gunboat in my VHF...

Discuss!:lol:

afk probably .... or he let him to do that .... one fighter cant damage gunboat with anything too little energy and weak weapons .... you can destroy it maybe in day or two ... but gunboat can destroy you in couple of sec

this is cool signature

There's a video uploaded somewhere of a VHF basically soloing a gunboat (until a cruiser showed up)
