yup one of the best things about evochron is being able to decide on your own challenges, dog fights can take place in some really way out there locations, not just planet atmospheres, but inside asteroid caves, in the gravitational pull of stars and black holes, nebulae fields. Even battling in and around stations can result in some fun tactical flying.

Even with a lot of bogies around it can be a lot of fun and managable. With the right skills and tactics and equipment and frame you can take on any amount of bogies any where any time. The only exception is if Eclipse is one of the bogies.....LOL.......:P:P:P:P

Darkness is the absence of Light as Evil is the absence of Good
hmmm, i'm more of a one on one man myself, i think it's something about the fact that i'm moving around soo much that at any moment i could be hit point blank from behind by a missile, and in my preferd ship, that's an instakill from full sheilds in an undamaged ship (well depends on the missiles yeild)
the day has ended, the night is yet to come
light and darkness, opposite sides to the same coin, yet what may do not realize is that this coin holds a third side, a side not of either or the other, but of both, a side of twilight. when light and darkness destroy eachother, there is nothing left but twilight, yet aslong as one or the other exists twilight exists within it, that is both the power and weakness of twilight. i am Ryuu Hakumei, The twilight Dragon. The Dusk Has Come
If you keep moving above the speed of the fastest missle on inertia you can never get suprised by a point blank missile from your six.....LOL....you could however from a head on approach at your twelve......but you will see that comming and can shoot them down.......:P:P:P:P

my problem comes from the fact that i constantly change direction and never build up that much velosity

Always be aware of the closest red with your left bottom corner display where you can show al ships and their ranges and use Target closest enemy to bring the closest to the top so you can always know where the closest is so no surprises from your six no matter how much you keep changing directions and do not forget to use cms they are free so use them abundantly if you have to.....
