This is my main worry... that 14,300 tonner might come back, with a full missile load. We'll be reduced to opening the airlock and throwing rocks at it.
Bring lots of fighters, with targets painted on them.

Nah, just mark it on the map 'Here be dragons'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.
If we manage to get out of here safely, we will return to Earth. throw a big party, promote some people (eg: a nice newly-built Destroyer for Captain Alice Bryant), repair our armor, fill up with missiles and Fighters, then come back here and sterilize this turkey-farm. Then we recover the wrecks and analyze the parts.
Not until we've soaked off its PD, if it was the one that fired those 1500+ PD missiles at us.
The Prix have picked up another of our pods. Again, not a Forum PC.
... I'll bet Count Lake is sweating right now.

Salvo #4 launched as two half-salvos. Twenty missiles against Genghis 001, twenty against Temujin 001. Cease fire. We will wait for the result of our salvo #3 first strike against Temujin 002 before committing any of our dwindling missile stocks to a follow-up attack.
You mean you didn't pick me up first?! After all the nice things I said about you?
Haha, it will suck if I get demolished while helpless in my escape pod but I understand the necessity of not being able to get all of them. I thought that I had been vaporized by the initial incoming salvoes so this little lease on life is just a bonus!
Which player characters are sitting in pods? Just to make sure the tension get's increased for them

I think he said that he would keep that info a secret until the battle was over, just to make it a little tense for all the pilots out there.
:rofl:
Don't worry Count... we're sending forty missiles over to smash the lock off your cell door!
Now you can only hope that the Prix doesn´t have time to probe you before the next salvo hits.

Wouldn't it be awesome if we blow up the Prix ship and Count Lake manages to escape in a Prix life-pod?
Salvo #3 is now half-way to Temujin 002, and salvos #4a and #4b are about a third of the way to their targets.

Shouldn't this qualify for "Brurned to death by Blue Emu with nuclear fire" forum signature?
At least, Count Lake had the opportunity to see the beating of the Prix; small comfort, for sure, but still a little taste of revenge.
Assuming the AI leading the Prix hasn't become sentient during the last millennia and doesn't intend to enact its own revenge on captured pilots before we blow it to bits.

The Prix ships have given up the pursuit of our Battle Fleet and are all attempting to catch the Rocks. They're getting pretty close... not sure if we can shoot them off his tail or not. Salvos on the way.
