Anyone else excited about *when* not if, TEST finds a Bengal?

[Unshaven]

Even if we don't find a Bengal I could see Test's home base as being a target by some other, agressive org that gets one and wants to see what it can do.

I'd say the odds are pretty good that Test will have a run in with a Bengal sooner or later.

On that note, I wonder how many heavy ships we have in the fleet to throw at an attacking Bengal? Javelin, Idris, Tali, etc. ?

We have the second largest capital fleet from what I can gather. Over 100 Idris and a classified number of Javelins. We have the power.

Not to mention the Bomber Squadron with every Tali, Gladiator, and Harbinger we can bring together to ruin people's capital ship dreams.

Who seems to have more, and how much do we need to be the clear biggest?

The better question; do they have enough to withstand the Drunken Aurora Rain that will escort our caps?

Xplor probably has many more just due to member size. But they are not nearly as disorganized as we are. We hold the advantage there.

Xplor is pretty uncoordinated and just spams invites. I doubt they will keep those members once the game comes out. I suspect TEST will lose members too but not nearly as much as Xplor.

Should we be bearing the brunt of an attack from a Bengal, would boarding actions be out of the question, I'll be it we'd have to reduce their defenses, but we do have the numbers... should we feel the need to take the offending party's toy away, and drop it into the sun...right in front of them preferably. Also will we be having any issues with factionalization? I know we have a bunch that want to go pirate, and a bunch that want to go military, and plenty that want to just freelance, Will that cause problems?

They say its actually impossible to crash into the sun, but we will prove them wrong.

We are TEST!!! if we can`t crash into the sun, we shall make our own sun. we shall smash all our auroras, at quantum speeds against the hull of this said Bengal. We may not think this shit up, BUT WE WILL TEST IT !!!!!!!!

 

[Maxgerber5250]

All I know is the first explore crew that finds ``The Derelict`` Bengal will be in for a surprise when they come aboard and find a full crew of highly inebriated and pissed Testies that thought it was the Pizza guy.

The Derelict would be a great name for it.

I'm just here because this thread seems important. Continue!

True. First they would have to figure out it was a Test Bengal in the first place once it got the Test Camouflage treatment.
Our Bengal may look more like a big ball of a thousand Auroras parked randomly all over its surface. Like a huge bee hive.

WTF is that? ???? I almost feel sorry for those brave but foolish attackers......

After thinking about it, crashing one into the nearest star could cause.....diplomatic problems. We should give it to the UEE in exchange for concessions. Financial, diplomatic, industrial, etc could be asked for.

 

[maynard]

if we don'f ind the first Bengal ourselves, we should board and steal the first one we can get to

Make friends with the most powerful organization by far: UEE (CIG) :D

 

[TheWoad]

Well it's obviou we will be at war right from the word 'go' because we have teh beer and everyone else wants. So we should find the first one, kamikaze that shit into Earth (where everyone will be because we made a 'verse -wide announcement that we found BOTH and want to display them) then hand the second one over to UEE in exchange for a limitless supply of aurora's which we will need because now everyone hates us forever. We should name them the TSS Dingleberry and the TSS Montoya's Revenge.

Begals AND Beer is a lot of carbs.

Wouldn't that just be another way to "find it ourselves"? :)

I am new so I am trying to figure out Org dynamics. So what it sounds like to me is that the first Bagel discovery will go something like this. If so, i think I am in the right group.

Any other org, "Hey look what we found!"
Us ten minutes later "Hey look what we crashed!"

This is it exactly. The tears from the community will flow like a raging river. Montoya's tear collector will overflow as he tries to drink all of them. TEST will become even more unstoppable! Because no one ever saw the 2nd Bengal we claimed. Just as planned.
