Edit that out. Please, I cannot even express my amazement at this insane damage... I simply cannot find the words. All that in one post?
I think not.
Although I will commend you on one thing:
This is the first time an Imperial RPer has shown sense with the their own damage count.
Nevertheless, please edit that out - not all of it, fighters being destroyed is a possibility, but you cannot destroy that many fully-shielded capital ships in one post.
A cool way we can avoid all this spitefulness is to simply state, 'staff, can i have a ruling on this'. Making snide and asinine comments simply begets more like comments, which makes the staff annoyed at having to act like an intergalactic babysitter.
Okay Staff, here is the situation: I've edited my post to where there are no ships destroyed, only crippled by collisions. The way I set this manuever up is to have the Light Frigates latch their tractor beams onto the bows of the Birds on the outermost area of the formation. Marth sent the Birds at full speed. My idea was, although they was no way in heck they could be stopped, they would be yanked far enough off course, that they would collide at about a 45 degree angle into the Birds on the inner formation. Moving at full speed, quite a bit of damage would ensue, both structural, and hull damage. From ensuing wreckage, some other ships in formation may be damaged.
Marth also did not list damages for his fleet from their manuevers, and engagement of the Imperial fleet in his post, so I dedicated the first paragraph of my post for the Imperial's reaction to Marth's manuevers, and engagement in his post, then my second paragraph I made my subsequent move. I did damage for my fleet and it's manuevers in the second paragraph.
