I think it would make sense to return to Earth for more missiles and fighters, and in the case of the Agincourt, for more armour. There may after all be another squadron of Prix ships in the system somewhere.

Oh, good news.
But I almost feels a bit disappointed. I had hoped for a new epic battle.
Our plan if we defeat these three ships is to recover our Life-Pods and GTFO.
I could carry all of our remaining ammunition in my friggin' POCKETS.
There's nothing like the smell of burning prix's in outer space... it smells like... victory!
Ha, that's great
Never happened to me so far, though I hope to see it one day.Well, the 2 Temujin are obviously toast.
Count Lake: Salvaging the wrecks while there still 2 Prix ships around, maybe more, is a bit tricky, and in my opinion too risky - though I don't know what our great Avian leader thinks of it.
Personally, I think we first have to go back with our repaired fleet, head straight for their planet and bomb whatever defense lies there - either their ships will be there, or they'll rush to intercept us.
I take it though that you don't intend to leave the system with any unused ammo, right? At least not unless there's nothing to shoot it at.
Temujun 001's speed has dropped by 3500 kps... he is now only 1.5 times as fast as we are. Still holding course. Genghis 001 has altered course to join up with the Bandit-2 Temujins, but our salvo will reach him before he gets there.
I think the AI is being a bit silly.
Which reinforces the earlier leak about a "virus"

Salvo #3 launched against the last untargeted ship, Temujin 002. Salvo #2 (vs Genghis 001) will reach its target in a matter of seconds. Let's see if that class has any PD.
Remember that this system is FULL of wrecks... seven or eight of them. The Prix might have used up all of their PD missiles from several ships in a previous battle, before we arrived.

Yeah but then... you don't blindly send your last 3 good ships (assuming Khan1 runs on empty) to the wolves.
As long as Genghis is as defenceless as Temujin, it's all over. A shame we'll lose a few life pods, but in the scheme of things we can only be happy.
No PD fire from Genghis 001. Twenty-four hits from our 40-missile salvo. His Thermal has dropped by 250 points. I'm setting up a half-salvo each (#4a and #4b) on the two damaged ships Temujin 001 and Gengis 001, then we will cease fire until the full salvo #3 runs out to Temujin 002.
Genghis 001's speed has dropped to 7867. Clearly, we've breached his armor, or he wouldn't be taking internals to his engine.
Looks like we've got this engagement in the bag, dudes. We'll just finish these clowns off, pick up any life-pods that they don't manage to grab before we wax them, and then GTFO.
I hate to say it, but they'll probably have time to pick up and eat every one of our ejected pilots before our missiles can run out that far. All the life-pods are very close together, the Prix ships move very fast, and it takes several minutes for our salvos to run out to range.
Good thing we managed to pick up seven or eight of the life-pods before the Prix drove us off...

Hopefully the big one doesn't circle around and cut off our escape route.
Take that to all the defeatist people who did not believe in terran superiority!
The next time we come to this system, we should be prepared to deal with 1200-1500 AMMs. Plus whatever else there may be left.
Had I been a little more cruel, I would have suggested a big rock-like ship with 10-12 layers of armor, and a single big laser.
