I finally now come to this forum ( I swear, Vimes has like 3 of these set up and when one didn't work it was discouraging ).
Anyway, Raven and I settled our differences. I was declaring war on the galaxy and Raven looked like a prime target because he was close. And I had one of his spies.
But now that's settled, we had our little duel. One of my destroyers versus 5 of his corvettes. The destroyer won with barely a scratch. I guess that goes to show that missiles really are uber.
Funny thing is, I found out well after the fact that that destroyer only had 1 out of 2 of its missiles working (only 25 range). Well, that has been fixed.
