Your recreation of the combat sequence is incorrect. I am not that stupid.

Well, either way, switching to drones and reloading ammo was your critical mistake.

Those frigate duels are very educational. You are, in fact, training me, Nauplius.

In the day and age of starship systems automation someone still have the guns loaded manually.

Get on with the times, you old coot! Rose-tinted glasses do not win battles!

I suspect its an excuse.

Y'know like yelling 'Fire the Torpedoes' and having to be told, by a slave at that, you firstly are in a frigate and your ship is equipped with autocannon.... he just wants to whip something.

Can't whip squat when confined in a capsule.

(By the way, stealth bombers are frigates with torpedoes)

It is not a manual process. When I want something reloaded, I signal to the appropriate overseer drone to begin reloading. This drone performs the reloading by starting to whip the slave responsible for reloading (or if the slave is already being whipped at the time, by increasing the intensity of the whipping). The slave understands the commencement or increase of whipping as a command to begin working (by slaves are "trained", if you can call it that, in at most one menial task). The whipping continues while the work is being performed, increasing or further increasing in intensity if the work be performed poorly. When I wish to stop the work, I signal to the overseer drone who in turn stops the whipping; the slave understands this as command to stop working.

That is manual loading, you inbred degenerate.

I know you get off on how evil and edgy you can make yourself sound, but you buy standardized ships and modules from the market, produced by manufacturers who actually live in the modern age. As much as you might want to use thousand-year-old tech, you don't. So, tell yourself whatever fallacies you want if it makes you feel the devil you wish to be. The rest of us see nothing more than one of the most mentally deficient capsuleers in this cluster. It's a wonder you are intelligent enough to remember how to breathe.

We haven't used manual labour for starship operations for over a decade now. Autocannons are typically loaded using the belt-feed system. Artillery loaders utilises a series of conveyors, loading arms and clamps. The crew we keep around are typically for the following tasks:

1. Emergency repairs
2. Maintenance and calibrations
3. Cargo sorting
4. Janitorial duties
5. Data verification
6. Fedo nursery duties

Critical starship systems are automated enough that you can will it to happen, such as the case for propulsion modules and shield/armour repair modules and weapons systems and the machines will execute it for you. Some tasks you don't even need to think about, such as power routing and etc.

Nauplius is deliberately downgrading his ship just so he can have an excuse to whip his slaves back and forth. It's a surprise he hasn't joined 'I Whip My Slaves Back and Forth' yet.

And so, the blood tower of madness, known as the "Demon Binding Temple", was destroyed today, with Samira Kernher laying the final blow. As far as I know, about 86% of the slaves that were imprisoned there survived and were evacuated by the allied fleet.

God is great, and God is merciful.

Because the Society that I am now a member of has an ongoing war declaration against Nauplius, my future encounters with the heretic will become more of a routine and less of a noteworthy news item. But the most important first honorable victory is already won.

I think this thread has mostly ran its course. After all, the members of PIE who fight Nauplius in the warzone daily do not boast about their victories. But if something interesting (aside of me losing more T1 frigates with weird fits) happens in the future I may update it again.

Amarr Victor!

Sister Tamiroth, I ask but one thing before I add anything of my own, why? Is it simply because of the dishonour he brings to your fathers name? Or is their another reason? I do not stand for what this man is, but a dark road is exactly that, and His light does not shine on the path of revenge or personal absolution.

Mr. Lapointe,

The reasons for fighting Nauplius must be evident for anyone who happens to look into this individual's history, and were stated multiple times by me and others throughout this thread, but they bear repeating.

Nauplius is a capable combat pilot, but as a person, he is completely, fedo droppings grade, mad. He adheres to a some sort of homemade Sani Sabik-like heresy and is fixated on torture and mass human sacrifice. He loudly proclaims everywhere that God demands death and suffering and this is the true face of faith.

His latest act, if you haven't noticed, was to erect a "temple", where 27 000 slaves were to be sacrificed in horrific rituals to keep the demons (that were supposedly active on the surface of Afnakat VI) under control. He got the idea that there are demons on the planet from an article in Gutter Press.

No, this is not revenge. I fight for our Faith, because the Faith is pure. Our Faith brings purpose, order, hope and peace to all things, not chaos, death, destruction and blood. God sent us forth to cultivate the spirit of man, not to torture and murder the said man. Nauplius' actions, and - at this point - his very continued existence, is an affront to the faithful, and to me, personally.

As I said before, we must clean up our own crazies.
