I can't work this out Shin. I have full upgrades, plus the Karanian
armour, but I can't cap Pixan for the life of me. As soon as I HJ in
(with cloaking on) I get slaughtered by the station defences. I'm down
to full alert and everything bleeding to death before I get within 50
clicks, what am I doing wrong???

Oh, and I haven't applied 2.12 yet, can you really cap other ships?

Pfft. Did you really expect me to let you bag my pie just like that?

Well no kidding. I wrote the target acquisition and fire control systems myself.
I also had some real beam turrets installed in lieu of the razor-thin ones that
can't even turn.

Ah, so I have to disable the turrets then?

Oh yes, I'm keeping an eye on my radiation control and everything. But
I think you've missed the point re the shield levels, how is that
relevant?

I loath non-sequitur threads. I'm afraid the pickled-herring have gone
off.
