So, after watching a crazy match that I thought was locked up, I'm wondering something about the PL widows:

Simply, why no javelin torpedos? Those give you a 50km range and allow you to apply damage while still closing. I may be wrong and PL may, in fact, have been toting them, but it didn't look like it.

One of the things I noticed is that PL didn't seem to be applying any damage at all while closing.

Well, it seemed to me PL were on approach for at least a minute, and reload is only 10 seconds. Of course, time perception is subjective, so it may have been shorter.

Dont forget ship velocity penalty with javelins. But it seems they had no javelin torps with them. Kitting them was great move.

Javelins wouldn't have dented the tanks anyway.

Actually the Widow pilots are saying they kept having their lock burst off, so it sounds like Huns made some last minute adjustments adding in the new mods and that kept causing our ships to lose jams and locks looks like it was ECM bursting Haks, mother of god that owns.


Its pretty pro, Huns are pushing hard this year and you might not see them innovating, but they're tinkering with subtle changes on the set up and really driving it home.


Good play to them this year, and nice to see Verge doing well too, they're living a sweet lifestyle right now, and just became filthy rich regardless of the outcome of the final.

Ah, no wonder. I haven't really played around with ECM bursts since they boosted them, so that's very good to know.

Oh the discussion was badass on that:
PL brough what... whell, who cares, we just switch this and that and we are good to go!
It was over within a minute or so, and that includes buying the stuff too! ;-)

PL had fitted her Widow with tech I torp launchers, that's why...Tech II would have been too greedy
