Today on the fleet battle map I ended up in the captain's seat of a Gallofree, with her and a corvette being the only two ships left on the map. I headed for the corvette and after much messing about managed to get my sluggish old tuna fish positioned near her. Just then I heard a message from an 'Ironclad', captain of the corvette, telling me to position myself at her starboard side. I do, and rotate to the right, which he also tells me to do. We proceed to take out an enemy ship the corvette is in a firefight with, leaving only the Lancer for the Imperials.
I'm then told to get behind the corvette and above her, which I do, to repair her while she makes an attack from above on the Lancer. I do so, but apparently her captain doesn't realize that I'm lagging behind (the gallofree is a slow bugger) and outruns me. Soon after this, after she engages the lancer and a swarm of TIEs join the fray, she's destroyed. At this point, I get company from two other people and find myself in a turret, easily swatting three TIEs that'd gotten a bit too comfortable near my 'harmless' ship with no gunners. Still, we eventually succumb to the wrath of the Lancers and TIEs. Defeat for the Alliance.
Still, it was fun while it lasted. Ironclad also tried to rally the team's B-Wings, ordering them to form up and attack the Lancer in unison. Don't know how successful they were.
