You know, the one where the wing of Sidewinders do the old canyon run through the FSC Damocles.
Well. I was in a Cobra not a Sidewinder and I'm not sure if it makes a difference but I would not recommend it. My first run (yes I did more than one) headed along what I believed to be the bow, I tried cutting down into the channel and BANG! Full stop, one shield ring. This is probably because I had only one pip to engines and the Cobra is a lot bigger than a Sidewinder. The second run went worse, I kept wondering if I could make it in so I tried again, not sure which side I went in but I tried going slow. I managed to get 'inside' before hearing the lovely sound 'shield offline' I'm now suddenly at 48% hull and at a full stop. I try nudging forward, 43%. I divert power to shields and wait the recharge out. At least the FSC is acting like a shield from incoming fire. I managed to crawl out without further problems.
Is it possible to recreate that intro movie? Was it just the wrong choice of ship?
