Elvish Pillager's Mod (EP-Mod) Tactics
« on: February 23, 2007, 02:09:32 pm »
This thread, of course, is meant for discussing tactics for EP-Mod.

For example, one of the very deep ships now is the EP-Androsynth, whose bubbles and blazer have been merged and an all-powerful laser added. Now there are three attacks for this ship: classic blazing, bubbleblazing (blaze around the opponent and swarm him with the EP-bubbles) AND dual-laser assault.
This means that a fight with this ship could look like that:
- The 'Synth charges unto his enemy in blazer form.
- Hits a few times, then misses and starts to circle around his enemy.
- The bubbles he emits chop his enemy apart. The 'Synth's energy end, his enemy is crippled and on the run.
- The all-mighty Androsynth gloriously charges and engages his laser cannons. With a loud "BOOM!", his opponent becomes history.

A good general tactic for all the ships.  Just sit and wait until your opponent pinballs themselves off the planets to death.  Roll Eyes

What's your contingency plan for when the opponent comes at you with weapons blazing?

Oh baby, just play as Kohr-Ah. Launch a few discs just out a bit and let gravity and homing take over haha.

Of course, the real pain is when a VUX limpets you.  Even if you manage to kill the VUX off,  any limpits will make it a pain to try and get out of a planets gravity haha.

The only ships that make me sad are the Torch and the Skiff. Frankly, the Skiffs "special" is a little crappy to me. And the Torch losing its speed is a bit of a pain, although if I did have the afterburners, melee would be a lot more like pinball haha!
