What role in a typical game is "your" role?

My strength so far seems to be as a target for enemy fighters to practice their aim on.

The upside to it is that I'm normally only about 15 seconds away from the base when I get podded, so I can be back for them to blow up again pretty quickly.

I feel it's a modest but useful role . . . /cool.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cool:" border="0" alt="cool.gif" />

i like to stealth. not that i´m very good at. i always sb fast, that´s a fact ( on ops or teles ).

lately i´ve been developing the sixth sense of knowing when and where noobs will pop out to kill on my interceptor, and have managed to rack up insane kbs, at which point i go and dogfight real players on unequal conditions.

i also like to hunt stealth ships.

but over all i like to command. again, i´ve been playing for so little time, but i got about 1/2 of it down (the rest is what makes a mediocre comm an exellent comm, but W/E). hope some day i can have most of it on my hands.

i definitely kill miners. yes. that´s what i do. and whore noobs.

another nice thing is driving battleships.

Ya know it is the funniest thing. When I HTT it isnt the vets who spoil my run but it is the clueless newbs with numbers. I can count on the vets not being in my wayward path most of the time but it is the clueless newb who poses the biggest threat. Happens mostly on HTT runs but a newb also spoiled my HoD run by going through the aleph right as I fired the res and ramming it.

There are still people who'll spend the entire game waiting if needed to get the SBing done.
Definately SBs for me, my favorite thing and the thing I am best at (flying SFs until we get the SBs is fine too).

I do everything pretty well except I always find my commanding skills a bit lacking.

Scouting, that's it at the moment...nanning and probing

I like to dog fight and mix it up, but i find i'm much more useful in a scout, even if it aint as glamorous!

before I joined cadet, I was a major Whore on the newbie server...lol once racking up 43 kills! for somthin like 11 ejects

I love that, but when i'm in a scout i think i'm able to help more.

We are supposed to be learning stealths at the moment, but I haven't had much luck with that...

My primary position is offensive scouting. Both probing and supporting runs on miners/cons and bombing.

Secondary I like to bomb, during the days my connection is stable enough.

Most of the time I try to be where the commander wants me to be without having to be asked first /wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

Oh, I rarely dogfight or turret, due to my bad connection.

Tend to do what I perceive as needs doing, would happily fly a scout all game, but it ain't appropriate all of the time sadly. I always seem to be the person to foil Kummy's HOD and HTT runs for some reason.

I am most succesful at being eye-candy for the ladies.

I am also some kind of a gay icon in Balkania apparently.

Oh and I like to PK Snack and Raindog.......I like that a lot.

I also like to get Pico to admit that Redcoats are the best lovers.
