Low intensity Conflict Zone in Neto
- Thread starter Anopheles
- Start date
I was in that conflict zone today, the one closest to Ising Vision. It was my first crack at a conflict zone. I got a few kills. Don't worry I didn't ram anyone. On the contrary, I was just about to bug out when I saw something out of the corner of my eye. I thought oh well, its probably nothing. It turns out it wasn't nothing, it was a very pointy npc Python! The radar said he was friendly, but what happened next, was anything but.
My cockpit lit up like a Christmas tree with fireworks under it, instead of presents. It seemed to go on forever. I thought that's it, I'm toast, I was waiting for the dreaded "eject eject eject". It never came. I unscrewed my eyes and peeked at the screen....my hull was down to 1%.
I thought it was time to hit some buttons on my flightstick. Naturally I tried to boost, the capacitor was empty. I then tried to jump out, and the hard points were still deployed.
Then I heard the other dreaded words, "under attack". I pressed the boost button like my life depended on it - which of course it did. I limped to the station with my 1% hull and had a 200,000cr bill to pay to get the Asp up and running again. But I did make 15,000crs in combat bonds.
Yikes!

Getting close enough to actually ram someone to any significant effect in a conflict zone is definitely a skill.
