Good old Task Force, how I loved it. Especially the way both sides had an isolated cruiser away from the main fleet. You had to get this one ship to the main fleet, and until you did, it was vulnerable to attack.

So I was piloting my TIE bomber towards the enemy blockade runner (and flag point) on Vanguard.  It was on the very far side of the map from me so I had a bit of a journey to go.  As I was cruising across the map I spot an X-wing coming up on me fast.  I break left and make a beeline for the asteroid field as the fighter closes in and starts to open fire.  Just as the first couple asteroids start appearing I see a second X-wing dead ahead of me, blocking my path.  Not a second after I see in front of my bomber does it open up with its blasters as well.

Throwing my bomber into a barrel roll I did two complete spins, all the while flying towards the second X-wing.  At the last possible moment I stopped the roll, pulled up, and held the throttle down hard.  Next thing I saw was two simultaneous kills appear in the chatlog, both players killed by each other's x-wings.  Flipping my camera backwards I was able to make out the end of an explosion and the debris of two fighter craft.  Apparently both X-wings had been so intent on getting me that when I pulled away at the last second they had collided into one another head-on.

Let's see...

The Harlequin Falcon on Hoth with Tyler as pilot. Holding the AT-AT flag on the same map.

Flying TIE fighters in formation on the Death Star map.  It was a beautiful sight to behold.

The GCCG - need I say more

High-speed Land-speeder runs through Beggars Canyon - pre "smoothing"  of course where it was a real challenge to not explode.

Oh I can go on and I can elaborate, but most of those concerned know the truth smile

Re: Ex-GC Players - Post your fond memories of GC here!

hamsters I pissed off so many ATST pilots on the Hoth map.  I was one of the proponents of the strategy where you'd point the nose of a snowspeeder at the legs of the walker, and suicide kill it.

It was just too hilarious to see the big, scrawny walker explode and fly three or four times its height into the air doing a slow, awkward flip.

Anyway, on one such occasion, I had an ATST lined up in my sights for such tardiness, and it was being escorted by two stormtroopers (snowtroopers).  As I hurtled toward the walker, one of them fired an anti-tank rocket in vain.  My speeder crashed into the legs of the walker, killing its crew and sending it flipping end over end straight above where it had just been standing.

The two snowtroopers were panicked, and started to run away from the site of the collision.  As the wrecked head of the walker hit the ground, it bounced twice, killing both of the troopers as they tried to escape.

Brilliant.
