To be fair, I did bring a giant fleet army, and did lay into 2 enemy ships while in a 92k shredder.. but thanks for taking ALL of the credit. :P
To the light siders that are exclaiming, "The lag, the lag." It's no excuse, because WE were also in the same sector, yes? Did we give up after experiencing crashes and lag? NOPE. We did not. BOTH IKindaCrashAlot and I had our clients go down and when we returned we were outside of our ships and had to actually fly back in cores! But at the end of the day, there is simply no way the light could have won that battle, regardless. So y'all got STOMPED! :D
And, in addition to this, I didn't even join the battle till like 5 minutes into it! So it was light team (801k) vs IKindaCrashAlot and Big (322k). Despite a clear mass disadvantage AND player disadvantage (5v2!), the dark team was doing well in the battle. Then pirates arrived and shit started getting laggy. And then I rolled in with my whole fleet army and Shredder and that was just the lag icing on the cake. :D BUT, the Molochs were brought OUT of the area almost as quickly as they were brought in! So aside from the loading lag, what effect they had on the outcome is hard to tell. But, even after I said I was moving the molochs out, the light siders decided "it's too hard! we cannot win! the dark is so powerful and awesome! We must run and lose!" Red and Gantry LEFT the area, even AFTER the molochs were gone! And so the light side lost. Suck it!
So, here's the breakdown of all ships used in combat, with totals for each phase of the battle:
Light Team (5 people):
Lightspeed - 71k
FlyingDebris - ~230k
TheJudge - 220k
Gantry - ~230k
RedAlert007 - 50k
Total Initial Mass: 801k
Total Mass (without Red and Gantry): 531k
Dark Team (3 people):
IKindaCrashAlot - 93k
Big - 229k Moloch
DestroyerOfWorlds - 92k + Drone Fleet (~86.4k) + Moloch Army (1.27m)
Total Initial Mass (Without Me): 322k
Total Mass: 1770.4k
Total Mass (without Molochs): 500.4k
And as for my my part in things, I did about 20% systems HP damage to a 200k ship (by my very rough estimates while in lag), shot up a 70k ship, and killed at LEAST 5 of the 93k skullface pirates that kept spawning. :D
Here's what I was flying in. Shredder V2.
I took some damage.. lost 2 turrets.. but that was from a damn skullface spawning right on top of my head and I couldn't jump away from it.. damn inner-ship remotes!
