Default What a shocker

Spotted two fishing boats, and thought...target practice for the gun crew.

Was I surprised, then they fired on me at medium range! When did the fishing fleet start to carry machine-guns and big ones at that?

Let me guess?

You're playing TMO?



Actually, both sides did use smallish boats for patrol duty; so, it can happen.

Yea, I ran into that some years ago with TMO before I used RSRD, just sank several capital ships and decided to sink the fishing boats so they couldn't spot me again. I didn't think they were doing much damage, but by the time I sunk them, I had like 70% damage.
