Well, if we are going more realistical on this questions, then we should probably note that in this particular battle, the cruisers probably do not have an unlimited amount of nukes. Also, in the real world a Quan might use his small fighters safely detonate the nukes before they get close, like the Chmmr do. This way, he/she/it could take out three crusiers without breaking a sweat.

Of course, this doesn't apply to gamespace.

Not to mention space doesn't wrap around in a square, planets aren't slightly larger than ships....

The whole, "oh, we'll help you in 35 or so years. Just sit tight until then."

Kinda gets my blood boiling.

Actually come to think of it, it's not Procyon that's my favorite place to do that at; it's Epsilon Gruis 1.


I thought they needed that long to combine themseleves?

*mumble* It has something to do with needing help right NOW instead of 30 years from now.

But the Spathi try to do that to you, too. "Ten, fifteen years tops." Feh. They welsh out with the whole Slave Shield thing too.

you think? I mean, the ilwrath gets into range, shoots, and is FRIED. Twice. And we're talking what, tens of thousands of Marauders? The ilwrath would be eaten alive. not to mention they've been spending months trying to kill them damn thraddash, who can just run away.

fuu.
