Regarding the forementioned battle with Rogue_63 and Rogue_81. I had sustained heavy damage, but managed to stay long enough to see the first death of Rogue_63. I went down soon after, and thats when Columbia joined with us. I returned to battle, and Rogue _81 gave us quite the chase around Texas. At this point i noticed he had a (bad?) habit of using cruise engines to run circles around us, to enable shield recharging. (ooc. was this the "shield running" i hear about ? I could have run away too before my death, but i stayed and fought till the end) Chasing '81 back to California, i decided (for my own experiance, and to show them what it felt like), to engage cruise as much as possible to stay alive (and i used up lots of their CD's too LOL). Eventually, i decided that we were not able to take down '81, due to his (in my opinion, cowardice). Redbear made a kill against '63 (to even the score, as he was down 1 also). While we dont hold the same beliefs, i hold Rogue_63 with high respect, as he (in my opinion), fought well to the end, with out the running in cruise of his partner. After his death, i left the California system, to Texas, as i had no intention of playing the game further with '81. I did not like my actions when i was engaging cruise, it was done in spite, and in the future i do not wish to fight this way, whether sanctioned, or not. I would rather die in proper combat, like a man (like Rogue _63 did, and like i did earlier in this battle), and i am sure i would have again, had i not engagaed cruise at the close of this battle. (ooc and i would much rather lose the battle, than win using this method.
