A Roman Empire Pathfinder sends greetings to an Eyre Condor Predator, and is met by a thousand Attack Fighters.
Considerable argument ensues as to which Attack Fighter pilot got the kill, a nearly impossible question to answer as the
targeted Fleet Scout was annihilated simultaneously by hundreds of antiship missiles….

Maybe you didn't actully kill it. Perhaps the Pathfinder self-destructed a moment before you actual hit him with all them fighters and missiles, just to stick it to you and have your crew go into disarray and fight amongst each other over who killed it first. :beer:

Thats the cruelest treatment to a pathfinder I have seen thus far :lol:

You'd almost think the ship commander would send out 1 fighter to harass it for a little while before zapping it with a Thunderbolt Arc Generator :beer:

We come in Peace! We promise.
