Pkunk ship reincarnates 8 times, takes out half a fleet.
« on: September 01, 2010, 12:25:15 am »

And with that lucky ship on max difficulty I took out an Umgah ship, Vux Intruder and 2 Kohr-Ah Marauders (1, 1, 2, and 4, reincarnates respectively) before getting killed once for all by another Umgah ship. Years ago on the original PC version I think I remember 10 or 11 reincarnations on the same ship before but I'm not certain. What's the most time in a row you've seen?

 Also, thanks to everyone who has been working to improve this already epic game. Much appreciated!

EDIT: Forgot 4 reincarnates on the last Marauder.

I don't feel like digging up the thread, but I posted  about 10 or 11 reincarnations once and I was laughed at. I remember some in the thread talking of numbers near 20.

That's a nice feat.

Pkunk tend not to be terribly lucky for me either. I think the most I've ever reincarnated was 3 times.

I enjoy overthinking things.

Usually, the Pkunk Fury never reincarnates for me. Then again, I prefer not to use it. I can use the Thraddash Torch much more effectively without relying on chance.

The chance of respawning 8000以上 (8001) times is approximately 2.87743×10-2409, according to Wolfram Alpha.
