Xexy on the other hand has Brood, Drizzo, Vogue, Vir, and Babs who don't embarrass themselves in ints. That's 5/12. Toss in myself and Wild and you get 7/12.

My point isn't that Thall isn't good in a fig or that other members of your squad are just as good if not better than him, my point is that the first person on the miners in that situation *needs to be a nan* and boosting away from the ability to be a nan-on-the-scene is part of why that miner died. Compare to the situation that I likened it to: Drizzo, Vir, and Vogue all launched nans when our miner was under attack. I think Phalanxe ended up doing the interceptor mop-up dance.

If your people are never leaving scouts then you gotta train them to not do that. I think XEXY has maybe one or two pilots who don't leave scouts over the course of a game (Paps and Penfold), but there are times when even they will pull up an int. Paps, for example, was an int on the opening con... because that's where he needed to be and what he needed to be doing. I was an int on our opening con as well for the same reason but spent most of the rest of the game in a scout watching END's miners while Student (who, bless his heart, isn't as good as I am in an int) was faithfully charging into the meat-grinder of Belters miners on the green door.

As a great commander once said, "How hard is it to shoot things that aren't shooting you back?"

my feelings hurt that i'm not on that list

also, a great explorer once said that "the extraordinary is in what we do, not who we are"

I didn't include anyone from the continent of Lesser America because you guys spend too much time complaining about your ping to shoot

I assume you are upset to not be on the list of people who never leave scouts?
