If you haven't tried these yet..check powers expansion systems-Im in empire space undermining for the feds..killed over 500 ships, trying to get my combat rank up..loads of elite:D anaconda npcs too!..still not very good 1on1 but when they team up..

The only thing that annoys slightly is when all enemy ships round on me, despite 10-12 of my allies in the vicinity..Ive kinda got my hands full with this deadly 'conda, can any of you help with the 2 eagles and a viper stripping my shields, if its not too much trouble? Seriously, one min I had full shields..15 secs later the canopy critical warning is going off! Also, I had an eagle and it never had beam weapons like those, that's cheating FD!!

One thing I learnt today..do not get isolated from your allies in a crime sweep, SJA's AI pack mentality will rip you to pieces!
 
Similar things happen in CZ's, all ticketyboo one minute & the next it's panic stations. I now boost away pronto if they try that on me :)

Man, I hate when that happens. In CZ's, it seems to happen just before I get 500K in bonds. It could just be a timer though. It just seems like the game says, 'ok, you've had enough, now get out of the cz'.

And it is night and day. One second, everything is fine, and has been for 15 min. The next second, your shields are down and you're trying to escape. Couldn't there be some kind of middle ground type of ramp up??
 
Crime sweeps are a waste of time imho. Earn some credits in CZ or RES bounty hunting or simply trading and then buy supplies or corruption reports at 10k a pop. It's about two or three times more time efficient.

I have heard that wings earn each others kill points in crime sweeps but I'm not sure if you have to share in the kill by damaging each ship? That's the only way it makes sense - if you have a wing of two or three doing a crime sweep, and you don't have to damage each others kills to get each merit.
