I've always put at least a major dent in an ancile even if it is mk2/12 . Punishers do serious work within 150m range on any shield . This was beyond odd So which forum member did this Ancile belong to exactly? Not seeing a connection to the thread title. |

Yep... You are correct . I did not read the title of this all the way through . My apologies ?

Hey, @heavypanda it was fun staring at your pilot tag on Dreadnought for all those minutes. My heart just wasn't into playing my 8th TDM in a row. Took my last bot up on the roof and apparently took splash damage from below. Certainly wasn't any visible incoming fire. Oh, well. I think a break from the game is in order.

Yeah, we were locked in a standoff for most of that match skillfully avoiding damage from each other. I wanted to go kill some less talented dudes, but I wasn't going to run away from ya  Cheers! |

I didn't really accomplish much... other than dying 5 times. Games are so hit and miss these days. I can usually determine the outcome within the first 2 minutes. Kept running into your clanmate, Death, yesterday and he/she seemed to be having the same kind of luck. Running solo does kinda make any given match a crapshoot though.

I ran into ralphwaldo on Tuesday morning. I almost didn’t post this as I really felt for you. It was undoubtedly one of the worst games you could find yourself in. Your team was really no help at all and we handily outcapped your team to 5 beacon advantage and won inside 5 minutes. At least I can confirm that you were at least attempting to challenge some territory even though the scoreboard doesn’t tell the story. Just wanted to say I saw you there and you were trying to cap for a team that wasn’t interested. Hopefully if we meet again it will be on better terms sir  ![]()  ![]() Thanks for the shout out DarkVagabound. I don't remember that game, but it seems like one where I was actually trying to win the game as opposed winning for myself. When it's individually better to be in the top two of the losing team than it is to be in the bottom three of the winning team something is goofy. The current game economy puts the smart money on focussing on individual advancement. But. I'm a dummy and like to focus on team wins. As seen here to my detriment |

The map was moon - I actually had another photo of you going for our far right beacon, but for some reason it just wouldn’t post here. Some sort of glitch I have sometimes where it doesn’t post some screenshots I make. I used to be more like you, but admittedly I had to adjust my playstyle just slightly to make sure I can still maintain my League points to keep me in Champion League, as I’m still really outlevelled. I still always play for the win, but I’m a little less willing to make myself the sacrificial lamb if my team clearly won’t take advantage of it. Keep up the team spirit, I salute you DV |

i suspect that Ancile's regen rate is quite high, I am not sure the stats of a Ancile mk2 lvl 12, but i ever had issue trying to kill a bot and find its energy shield to be really tough only to find out its having Double Ancile, and the regen rate was crazy. i think 100m is still not close enough to be inside the "bubble" of the ancile. Maybe it was an Ancilot and the punishers were still trying to get though the frontal physical shield also. punishers do double damage to shields and make quick work in busting bubbles... that's awkward... True but it may be due to my fault that my Punishers are "weak" and only Mk1 lvl 8, and the Ancile i ran into is like lvl 12 or Mk2 lvl 12. either way its interesting to see someone running a Double Ancile or a Carnage with 1 Thunder and 1 Ancile, because of all the Energy weapons nowadays, ancile seems to be largely useless considering you spend so much Silver to level it up, only to have it TOTALLY bypassed in-game when you encounter Shocktrains, Scourge, Tarans, Dragoons, Redeemer, Magnums, Trebs, Gekkos, Arbalest, and soon to come, Flux (this list used to be so much shorter, but recent months the new weapons all seems to be energy based ones). |

Had a couple of games against him, but then I decided to invite NerFB for a few games. Together we did pretty well - we beat the infamous whale and Legends League pilot SnowLion and we were also able to defeat a tough Criminal Minds Squad which had trounced us earlier. Sir it was a pleasure. ![]() |

I found Dr. Yat in battle yesterday. It was one of the closest game I’ve ever played, the beacon bar was so similar when the time ended that I couldn’t tell which side was the winning one. Unfortunately, we lost, but it was a very good game!   I also ran into krebby ! Nice round mate, although we were both outgunned and outleveled:  |

Good match on Moon, bronzeknee. Seems your teammates weren't exactly interested in capping beacons. Sorry for the love tap I gave your Carnage ? Wasn't hard enough ta kill ya, though.  |

Domino no doubt your team won. My win rate has gone in the dumpster, and I've lost around 600 league points in the past two days. I'm about to go with 5 missile chucking patton's just to survive a match.

My team of randoms weren’t cut out to face a 4 man [BEER] squad, but I tried to give you as much trouble as I could before we went down   |

I ran against frunobulax today on Valley. I think this marks the first time I have ever seen a forumite in-game. I managed to dodge a lot of your Zeus and gekko shots and could not resist chasing you down suicidally, sorry. Shame the rest of your team couldn't hold up to your standard of play, You made excellent lemonade in a bad situation.  |

I had a few games today that felt like "um, I do have teammates, haven't I?", and I think that was one of those games In some of these games I became suicidal with my last bots. No point in prolonging the game when you're down 4-1 or 5-0 on beacons and your teammates are either dead or lobbing Hydras. Really shrewd matchmaking at times. I doubt that I waited for the final score in that one. |

I guess it's true what they say about waiting for buses... Just ran into another forumite I believe... SoCalGrndR ? Map was Valley, I only discovered you after the game ended. I believe you roasted my Kumiho in CQC near center with your Ember Lance.  |

Nah, it was a decent game. Dead City, Beacon Rush.
I'm surprised I didn't do worse, actually.

Just met FeistyRaccoon and his squad on Moon This happened to be my first qualification match for Champion. So after noticing some clan names among reds, I just tried not to fall into -22. The Orkan Doc lost mobility (leg damage) at one of the early encounters, so I couldn't do much with it. But I managed some flanking shots with my Taran Rog and Plasma Rhino to score hits. Blue teammates also fought tenaciously against a difficult foe: I managed avoiding a negative league point, but hope next qualification battles be easier than this ... Battle result:  |

And just met TravLar (Ratel Donder) on a Moon TDM battle Your team had one pilot less active, but didn't give up and brought it to a somewhat close match. Hope to see you in the same team next time!    |

Didn't notice til after the battle, but I got teamed up with Nocluevok a few minutes ago. He took top dmg. I was lower in the ranking...last, but on the winning team, at least. Nice to see someone else with 2 Rogs in his hangar. Do those Taran/Orkan Rogs do ok for you? Top dmg might give me a clue, huh?
