Have you been victimised by one of these foul fleets. The so called 'swank' style fleets? These talent free shooters of newbs and vets alike, this purulent pestilence on good players everywhere? How can it be, that the lazy players who use these fleets exclusively actually make it to the top ten with monotonous regularity? Well, newbs think they are being squished by 'good' players, and vets just can't be bothered.

But this foul infection must be eliminated.



This virus must be inoculated, this disease expunged. These smartass newb bashers smited thoroughly. There is only one place for these fleets -:



If you would like to assist in eliminating this foul plague simply
MESSAGE and we will see what we can do.

Freedom from swanks

LOL what a recuit topic.....

I have noticed that the swank users usually attack noobs its really sad ... I have never used them to attack a planet that is just harsh... well unless i know it is someone that is Good... there are ways to counter them and get loads of points but people dont really do its sad really.

Use Blockade runners , or evaporators , or only Grazers or only troika's find out what will work best for you . otherwise ask a newb helper what fleet set up to use to counter them .

Swankfleets are easy to kill just use the good set up , and you will score big points on them
just like our guest said Evaps are cool to use against them
if you need a nice set up to counter the Swank here is an example
yours: 45 ships
class 1:
5 interceptors (0/1, 1 MP)
2 mine-deployers (0/1, 4 MP)
1 sporator (0/1, 5 MP)
31 evaporator (1/2, 12 MP)
class 2:
1 eagle (2/10, 4 MP)
3 shield generators (0/2, 4 MP)
class 3:
1 cruiser (100/100, 60 MP)
class 4:
1 mothership (0/1000, 320 MP)

enemy: 31 ships
class 3:
12 apollo cruiser (0/100, 85 MP)
5 cyclopses (0/100, 120 MP)
2 cloud cruisers (50/100, 80 MP)
11 plasma gunship (0/100, 92 MP)
class 4:
1 mothership (0/1000, 320 MP)


- click here to see the complete battlereport -



summary:
your losses:
class 1:
31 evaporator
5 interceptors
2 mine-deployers
1 sporator

enemy losses:
class 3:
5 cyclopses
2 cloud cruisers
11 plasma gunship
12 apollo cruiser

score: 2402

And there are many more ways to kill a swankfleet

You misunderstand Connor, I was not asking for instuctions on how to squish a swank, I am asking for assistance in eliminating swankers from space. I have had One positive reply so far.

We at least now know that evans is a target. what is his player name?
He must be squished into submission.

OK, but killing those fleets are good for my score , so don't need to elliminate them just know what to do when they show up , next thing you say eliminate the Penguins setup because it kills my base !!!!
Just provide the noobs with info about counter fleets ( there are to many noobhelpers wich are not helping! !)
and to many noobs who are not asking ! ! !

Teach them not eliminate a fleet set up ! ! ! !

get rid of swank very fast
it ruins the game
we all know now what a start up setup is and man do they suck because everyboddy knows them and the counter is easy

the other reason is that is kills the game on the other side too

how many swank fleets will we have in this game and will it be like oh there is a swank fleet again as
it already is in the game
so if u have a swank fleet
u come to me
i kill u

but i dont play so lol
just pls dont make it so simple
just create a random setup with class 1 2 3 4 and if it is a bad one
u learn from it lol
