Tonites episode, And its good.

tonite i thought i would play around with Bombing. Not something i usually do but, hey, So i join Uggies, die alot. One command dread into a planet that was in my way when on auto pilot to orbit another but hey, such is life.

wasnt working for me, so i commit a sin, I join back to Kluth, in the same night, yes i know its bad, i know ill go to hell, but as i said it was play around with bombing nite.

First planet, in a clavate, with MIRVs, (yes i committed another sin) wasted, Me thinks, this is to easy, (Now remember i am the worst pilot in the village) |||Suddenly up pops NIM, Dictor beacon DEAD. Pay atention me not Nim.
MMM.

Ok ill get my big guns out, cos my ships bigger than your ship time. MUHAHAHAHAHA. Ganglia, Fully modded, Neutrons this time, plus 6 ECM (see i can be good). Jump in to a totally different System, millions and i mean millions of miles from Nim the Impalers last known sighting and up pops Nim who must not be named. Again in a dictor.
Right methinks time to die little weed,
OOPS in comes a battle Dread and a incy wincy likkle corvette and yep i DIED. Even with 6 ECM plus my cloak. Who is Nim???? Eric Bristow???

At this stage, still crying from tears of laughter, and seeing my pres dip below 40,000. Methinks, well time to take up LUDO. But no i persevere. I head into Briareus in Kapetyns, Time to Muller the Iccies methinks, Another Ganglia with ECM spouting from every orifice, and nuetrons. weeeeeee i cant fail.
I start my run and Bleep, up pops NO NOT NIM, tis worse, Tis Taxi in a Assault Dread. Damn im toast methinks. BUt no, I bravely fight on. And to be fair, it was/is one on the best duels i have fought one on one, IT WAS FAIR, No uber reactive armour, Cloak even against shields and hull and the other thing ADs have. lots of circling and ECM and Cloak and uncloak and manouvreing, Kluths reload playing off aginst planetary depots. Nobody running away,
A good stand up nose to nose Dread vs Dread fight.
Excellent.
Now thats what DS is about.
Right im off to the shops to buy some pres, cant get any here.
