The fight's not being going well for me today, the 1st 2 battles those damn empire ships would rather play banger racing than have a good honest fight!
3rd one went better, think I plastered 15 of those empire thugs!
.
But this last battle was hectic, the 1st thing I see on dropping in, or rather don't see is many of my Dominion allies ....... I knew it was going to be a hard day at this point!
We were badly out numbered & I took some equipment damage early on, damn missile got past my PDT with shlds down & nearly took out a beam laser! (13% H), bloody thing keeps cutting out when it gets just a bit hot now....
We manage to take out some of their big ships & my hull's still good @85%, after being separated in the last fight with a Python I head back to the fight zone, and run straight into a healthy Anaconda, by myself!
I give it a quick go at dropping his shlds (with 1 laser sporadically cutting out) & decide to bug out as my shlds fail, boosting away with my hull now at 66% & a cracked canopy.... that was a bad move taking that on!
.
I rejoin my allies, the fight's still not going well, about 2/3 of the blips are red, I join in to take out a severely damaged anaconda, seconds latter its dead & after some cross fire whilst searching for a damaged python I go on the tail of a cobra, then the canopy fails!........it's been a long day!
.
I notice we are pulling away from the pack at this point, so, damn it I'm not going to let this fracking ship get away!
With the hull on 36%, shld gen 31%, 1 beam laser cutting out, canopy breached with the target sight gone, the 25min countdown running, warnings of cabin pressure & 'module malfunctioning' (the laser), I lay into this cobra, I usually hold back the multis for the big ships, not this time!
.
My ship doesn't seem to fly well, but I eventually get him, no more hull damage & 13mins left on the oxy, 1st time I'm glad I got that top rated life support!
The few bounties I actually got didn't quite cover damage repairs & ammo........ well I knew it was going to be a tough day!

Not quite proper RP & I'm no story teller but I thought it was worth a post
How's the war been going for other cmdrs? Friend or foe
.
Btw I noticed both the Durius dominion & the citizens of ??? were up in rep! (69%^ & 21%^), how is that possible??
Oh & I've really got to learn FA flying properly, the Cobra seems to turn like a slug
