I bought this Anaconda when it was on sale for 117M a while ago, and I've only used it for trade - I've never been in a position where I had to shoot at anything. An NPC Vulture interdicted me a few minutes ago and I though, fine, why not, and submitted.
Not thinking seriously about using it for combat, I'd just shoved a bunch of turreted pulses in most of the available slots and set them to "fire at will". I'd never used turrets before, either.
This is old news to a lot of you, obviously - but as someone who has only ever gone as far as small ships for combat back when RES had the money, I didn't realize how incredibly funny it is to drop out of supercruise and just float around while your ship happily decimates a pirate and your shields never really seem to notice that they're being attacked.
Must be a giggle having a properly combat loaded Anaconda!
