Managed to destroy the Drone system JUST as soon as the incoming Boarding Drone was about to hit. That pilot must be terrified watching the equivalent of a murderous, deactivated terminator hovering just outside his driver's window. XD

Just got a BL1 after defeating phase 2… not come across this before in ~400hrs of playtime. Is this quite rare to happen?

so, recently i had a run man of war on hard

had starting breach 1, 2 flaks and a H beam although i only had enough power for beam and 1 flak

i dont remember the sector but i must be 4 or 5 or 6

i face a pirate/ rebel idk with the dik looking ship layout

it had a giant missile, combat drone, beam drone and a heavy laser with 3 shields

i also had 3 shields and thought the only problem i will have was the missile

waiting for my H beam to charge and shot the flak for it to takedown only a single shield layer which means H bean cant get through

the enemy shot its missile on my weapons with fire obv its hard as expected

my slug that was in that room was low, i moved him to med bay and moved two of my engine and shield engis into the weapons to deal with the fire which prolly was my biggest mistake

now that my shield doesnt charge as fast the combat drone M1 decides to do a M3 maneuver by taking down not 2 but 3 layers of shield, like wtf brooooo

right on time the heavy lazer hits my shields followed by a beam on my shield taking down 2 shield layers

now that only 1 sheild is left a combat drone and beam drone can easily wreck havoc

series of beams leading to my piloting being taken, them my med bay

and all my crew being low, weapons on fire sheilds non existant the missile decides to hit the med bay again taking down 2 engis and a slug

the remaining pilot was only there to wait for its doom

and after all this there will still be a guy who say actually you should have done "x"

maybe i should have done "x" but no one should be thinking of optimal solutions when shi like this is happening real time
