It is much more interesting to collect pebbles or jump for months from star to star....
I am sure you will be awarded it.... soon.

Agreed, I find exploring and gathering materials to be even more mind numbing. (Sorry explorers, I have a short attention span)It is much more interesting to collect pebbles or jump for months from star to star.
8 gimbled guns? Are you that it is serious?
Any reverse tactics is doomed to failure if the other ship has a thicker shield and weapon power. You just need to have 2-3 long-range rail weapons, or at least long-range laser ones. Micro-fine-tuning weapons will make getting into the middle ship too easy.
As they say, a heavy armed knight needs to have only a bow with arrows and be able to shoot from it.

Let first explain what happened on 26:43 on video.

Just woke up. Best sleep aid there is, many thanks for that. I think I would have been falling to sleep even if I would have been in the pilot seat it's such an engaging fight. Just one question: Did you win? I don't want to start watching again, out of fear to wake up 10h later non-the-wiser.
You are a naughty person.Haha I'm not sure you could describe any outcome of this fight as a "win", but since you asked...Yes, I goaded them into a ramming contest and got the kill after they tried to claim victory when I said I was out of ammo again. I was actually bluffing and had a few more full shots ready; I just didn't want to tip them off until they had just about rammed their shields off toying with me (they certainly would have run again otherwise). It turned out that the last collision made that tactic unnecessary.
Not only do I love Shostakovich's Symphony no.7, "The Leningrad", but also your sheer endurance and Zen-like mental composure
P.S. I was unable to watch the entire video. I would have died of boredom.
Hmm I'm not sure what you're asking. Of course eight gimballed cannons aren't serious; it was a joke build I flew around a few times out of boredom. I normally use PA's almost exclusively on my combat ships, but sometimes a build needs gimbals to work at all (cough Clippers cough). These cannons have a wide velocity distribution so it results in four separate reticles. Also, the very slow speed, high jitter, low damage, and limited range balances out the gimbal advantage IMO.
I'd wanted to build an all cannon Conda since joining the Code about a year ago because it seemed like a classic pirate sailing ship I could tool around in (mostly for pve stuff) and originally planned to use the different grades of the long range mod to modify projectile speeds and have a matching set of fixed cannons all using the same reticle. But then as I was setting up a spreadsheet to figure it out I asked what I was doing with my life and put the calculator down.
Also, neither of us were using torpedoes. I'm not sure why Koka's shields fell the first time, but I think later instances of shields dropping were from reboots after the cannonballs or heat damage took out their weapons.
I am generally surprised at the choice of guns, since the high yield shell was cut in my opinion, no one else uses them....

Wait, when did this happen? Yamato2012 Wake in the first seconds?
This fight went down last weekend on the 7th. Yamato's wake was just a routine jump in supercruise, not an exit from a local fight instance. I was just idly looking at it when Koka pulled me into the fight the video covers. I left that very beginning in showing the wake as a minor Easter egg, as many of us have been thrilled to see Yamato2012 online again after a long break.
