That ship just looks ANGRY! I like the Mantis on the nose. Put one on mine as well. Got Pyros on the wings and the "Reverend" up stairs as well.

That's the excuse I use too. Only in my case, it's really the opposite.
Correct. I found that a balance of quick and light and slow and heavy hitting has saved my ass a number of times. That and also pulling out to regroup when it gets too hot.
I have to be honest. Last night my teammates, after I crashed out the match with @Blind Owl, were really good and one had a Vanguard who had game. So kudos to LittleGrim and Moochin. Even though they aren't Testies.
Yeah, but it did appear in the ship listing for purchase to me before I scored the CCU, which I haven't applied. So it appears that if you win the prize you might be able to purchase it out right???? I didn't have the cash to try, so I just took the CCU.
I prefer the all heavy and quick, 3 Panthers and one M6A. It gives me a hard time while fighting the light fighters, but it pays off when fighting the heavy fighters.
That is a fact. Also be very conservative with fuel. Better have some left when you must go for the higher grounds.
Since 2.6 I don't think it is bad to shoot other fighters targets, points don't matter, a fast kill while shooting with 2 guys on the same target takes you one step closer to the end goal and prevents fighters from being a sitting duck while trying to finish of targets.

I was so next the impression that the wings took size 4 w/ out the gimbal and that the ball turret took a size 5. I was wrong. Waste of rec. oh well, I'm still doing well with the mantis, revenant and 2 pyrobursts.
Turns out, a connie is not a practical dogfighting ship....who'd have known?
Dude! You are the man!
Welcome the club.
"Oh we're the Pirates who don't do anything
We just hang around and fly Caterpillars
And if you ask us to do anything
We'll just tell you.."
"We don't do anything"
umm apologies to Veggies Tales
Turns out connies are good cannon fodder though for lots of ships.
Right. What's next an Orion in Vandul Swarm?
Seriously though. The time spent taking down a Connie leaves one open for attack from fighters. So it's best to leave the lumbering logs for the finale.

You must be a skilled pilot...I think the stock Super Hornet load out is crap!
Congrats!
Sweet. Fucking awesomeness. Congrats lads!
Thanks man. I appreciate it. I didn't think I was that good, but first kick at the Cat in a ship I was only there to test out...yeah, turned out not bad at all.
True. I wonder if a Reclaimer could be used to just "chew up" an adversary?
I'm being serious here. That would be interesting and an awesome sight.
Never playing Pirate Swarm again unless they change something.
???? Why? On to new stuff?
I loved watching this movie with my boys. I wish I had a Reclaimer. What a perfect name for that ship.
I take that back, I'll play when we have our weekday meetups.
