' Wrote:Well,my opinion about you guys were good at start.Actually there wasn't Apoclypse tagged ships.
It was just Apoclypse Now and Cyclop Arga.and it was fun then,sometimes you ganked us,sometimes we ganked you,with your cap 7 and 8 armors we need to bring pretty big forces to beat you.
But now,flying around with 5 BHG BS...no fun in that for anyone else then you guys.
Apoclypse,you say we can't beat you expect when overkilling,we gave you a fair fight yesterday at evening.
We were 2 Osiris 1 Corsair dreadnought and few bombers.
You had 2 cap 8 BS,2 Order carriers and 1 battlecruiser.
So in caps it was 3 against 5.
And we beat you fairly,you gotta admit that.
But you need to also think that when flying around with 4,5 BS fleet you can't expect fair battle,because you can't offer one with such fleet,and it's very hard to gather fleet which can fairly confront you guys.
So,I think this Apocalypse thing has gone to far.
Now those Kray carrier and Osiris joined you,in RP they were in Order for just few weeks,and suddenly they know everything about our Alliance with Corsairs.
So there is no real good RP background for your attacks.
And my opinion changed a lot about you guys.
I like the idea of separatist Bounty Hunters, but I will like it more if they gather or just fly some smaller ships like bombers and fighters more often. I am not, however, to certain about the Order folk that joined them. Sure it's one thing to defy the common command, like the [OR] folk, but to tag as a faction enemy without changing ID and IFF kinda does not make sense. I figure the Apocalypse still fight The Order for the same reasons as the Core. Maybe it could be because they declined the recent deal? Either way is fine I suppose for the bounty hunters, but I don't understand why the 'kray' Order folks are fighting the Order| folk under the Apocalypse flag.
First of all... Uhm... Violette? Who the hell are you to comment my sig? I've been drawing, painting all my life, and I'm also a part-time graphic designer (among other primary things I do). My signature is fine as it is. If you'd know something about it, you'd notice it is a multi-layer in-1-hour-made art piece with all colors on its place (tones of red and orange goes hand to hand with colors of "Apocalypse Now" the movie poster and theme colors of explosions, fire and mass destruction in general). Your size font is too large (too obvious, commercial for me), you've put so much contrast on this "thing" you can't make difference of what is what in the background (stars are squared in upper left corner). And what's this glowing "thingie" around Mako? You should have made more blurry and transparent. Too unrealistic. And one more thing... composition of your "suggestion" is horrible. Uh... Since when did my signature has became a topic?
Montezuma - this is not a topic as well, but you had backup coming from Minor (seen them in Delta) so what would you do on my place? Wait for them to arrive? And come on... I'm not the one who last time came on me with 2 legates... Come on... I didn't expect this from you, mate.
Tic is absolutely right. OORP chat will not be seen by me anymore. Regarding cap ships, we will cut down the numbers. I will listen to your advice, which was something similar as Grimly's and Spaceball's.
Spaceball - hehe... You make the most sense. For Kappa as our temporary home system - we had no choise, we had to move away from Freeport in Delta to make Zoners happy. I'll repeat, cap ship numbers will be cut down, to make things more realistic and fair. But you know it very well that others will just continue bringing a lot of caps on us.
You've got some interesting ideas. I never saw it that way. I always imagined myself as some sort of terrorist, anti-hero or something. The most interesting part is not to be a bad guy. It is the process of becoming one that makes this game interesting to me right now.
As for "fleet"? What would you do on my place? Disband them? "Hey, you know what fellas... I gotta watch out for myself right now. You can all just go and be what you were, or be someone else. Thank you for flying with me, but now it's over. Shoo! I don't need you anymore." Respect, dude. "May the power of Schwartz be with you.."
I will no longer respond to any comments but I will read and dwell upon interesting suggestions. Thanks everyone who shared with us some interesting thoughts and opinions, especially my hard-to-kill enemy bombers:)
Cya on the battlefield...
Colonel Walter E. Kurtz, cmdr. of Rogue (or terrorist or... whatever) BHG BS "Apocalypse Now"

No, its perfectly on-topic, people are asking who you are, and im telling them that you are the kind of people who invade gamma with 5 battleships and a destroyer, and attack 2 bombers, a titan and a legate with minimal RP.
Also, the order had not spoken to me or any of the others (if they did they certainly didnt mention it).
Lastly, at least try to invade when there are even numbers, last time when i commanded the defense with 2 other legates and a horde of titans, you put up a good fight, and actually RPed before it. Please dont slip down the proverbial lavatory of the lolcaps, remember you once were good at RP.
1 BS and BC.. perhaps a gunship. Andd all others bombers / fighters. Would keep the balance quite fine.
IF you got a lot of caps, it doesnt mean you need to fly them all. Other factions have over 5 + caps too. OPG is one of em. But they are rarely used. Due to some understanding about fairplay. Besides, a lot more fun to yourself and otehrs then fights are fought by smaller crafts.
And dont moralize me that gamma cap spam requires you to owerhelm them with another cap spam. 5 bombers can take 5 destroyers easily. If the bomber pilots know waht they are doing.
And I know what im talkin. Then you get raided by multiple BS's with dessie support and you have only about 4 bombers and a few fighters... you later learn how to coordiante with the force you have to win agianst 'Big ships'.
P.S we won that fight too, of course it required a drop of sweat or two but still \m/

Well, judging by that picture I posted, which I took a mere ten minutes ago, you didn't seem to actualy follow this advice, and then to tell me in pirvate chat to "bring something bigger next time" really takes the cake.
Infact, to undock a further two battleships one of which is a full solaris battleship to deal with three bombers, when you already have an osiris and a sehkmet in space, is more than just a little silly.
The one thing I noticed. The two times I saw you die to another Battleship. You asked for a re-match.
Example in Delta a few weeks ago.
You were destroyed then you re-spawn at a station in the said system and ask for one on one re-match in system chat Taunting Us about it in RP.
To prove your better? To prove you can die twice to the same person?
