Using railguns? Tisk tisk. Blasters are better, bro.


Blasters are a random weapon, lacking artistry.

Railguns are far more precise.


If one has to aim carefully for wanton destructive rampage, can it really be called wanton destructive rampage?

Or one could just unload their entire magazine into the hanger without concern for careful aim.... multiple times.

Not nearly fast and messy enough. It just punches neat holes through the superstructure only to blow up into clouds of plasma somewhere.

Three words, Rage. Nova. Rockets. Close range, big target, would be in the docking bay so shields wouldn't be much of a problem.

As much as I love rage rockets, heavy assault missiles and torpedoes, I still think 'piercing then explode into a fusion blast' is much messier and far more of a pain to clean up.

And Yet its quite a pretty thing to see when it goes off.

You guys remember he could see what I was flying, right? There's a reason he denied docking to my interceptor. While I certainly don't disagree with any of the weapons analysis going on, he wasn't going to let me in with anything I could use to mess u the hangar like that.

Hee.

Yeah, people reacted a little like this when I met with him: "Why didn't you kill him?"

My answer then is the same as it is now: "It wouldn't have done any good."

Not disagreeing with you on the "it wouldn't do any good" bit, but you could have left an old school nuke behind... I mean, the shuttle does have a cargo hold, and you can remote active the thing.

I want to paint my ship Periwinkle.

My intention at the time was to save lives, Mr. Toov. I succeeded mostly because I stuck to the agreement, letter and spirit. In the time since, Mr. Nauplius has actually exceeded what I thought the agreement was-- he's continued turning over his captives. That may be coming to an end, now, but....

Even if at some point I might actually have had a chance, I can't regret that I didn't harm him.

Maybe it's hypocritical for someone like me to care about such a thing, but, I guess I'd rather be a hypocrite than someone who consistently lets people die.

I just wish I had thought this meeting up! I'm laughing so hard now that I'm almost crying.

So it turns out that Naups is really just a bog standard horny old pervo with a kink for getting slapped by Matari women. Hilarious!

If it will get him to calm down on the whole "sacrifice minmatar" thing, I can point him in the direction of a couple of pleasure hubs that cater to that kind of fetish. 100% discreet.

Baseliner shuttle. Had to actually fly the thing in manually. No pod.

Better chances of contracting the hub employees to go to him. He won't step inside one, remember? They're wicked and vile. Maybe Vwickled, even.

That might pose a bit of a problem, given his reputation. Think a meeting on neutral ground could be arranged? Because I own a small hotel chain on Callie that could host him. I'll even comp the room fee...
