Tried CG for the first time (with my poor AspX).
We did our best, giving them pesky Vultures a hard time, trying unpredictable FA off trajectories that were so unpredictable I couldn't predict them myself.
But as we squashed one or two more bugs, all of a sudden Amélie yelled at me :"The canopy is breaching, you (censored)!"
"That's fine", I said, "everything's under control!" as I was trying to remember how to crank that damn AFMU while also trying to take cover behind the rocks. I managed to repair the canopy, secretely giving praise to that old CMDR for their story I've read recently about them repairing their canopy like that after a neutron fail.
But the swarm subtly grew bigger and bigger, and as I were "that's okay"ing my hull percentage, it suddenly appeared to my that it was not okay at all.
So Ifled decided a tactical retreat, managing the pips like i never did before so I could keep some shields as lasers rained while boosting out of gravity field.
We managed to join and dock at Clement Orbital with a 2% hull, so I could cash the bounties and add my humble contribution to the CG.
I called that a "perfectly orchestrated plan", but Amélie a "reckless endangerment of a randomly-engineered exploration ship piloted by a non-combat noobish pilot" so I turned off the COVAS in order not to hear neither the truth nor the repair total costs, and got a beer at the station bar instead like any responsible CMDR would do.
