26 hits off of a 6AD Shadow Ship (young). Blew up a battle level ship in one shot. On the other side, I've missed with all six dice on more then one occasion.

As little as possible. Although I recently played Carrier Clash. Level? Skirmish 8. Meaning I had to take a single War ship (lowest level ship with two fighters). Strangely, it went really well for me. Almost impossible for the low level skirmish ships to really damage him.

My tactics when fighting a fighter swarm revolves around the use of the long range weapons on Shadow Ships, and the short anti-fighter guns on the little ships. Basically I line up my ships with the scouts following my shadow ship, keeping them about 6 inchs behind. This covers almost the...

I play shadows in the same campaign as HeroesGames. And I can generally do well with them, but only by heavily playing on my ability to use terrain, kill a ship, hide and heal, pop out, kill a ship, repeat. And its funny how many people complain about that style of play. Apparently everyone just...

We like it. I play Shadows, and find it to be a good boost. However, they did cut my beam dice down a lot, which I think balances it out. But then, I've been winning my games. :lol:

We played a raid 5 last night, Vorlons vs Shadows. Shadows (me) took two battle and a raid. Vorlons took a War and two skirmish. I ended up taking out both of his skirmish, he took out one of my battles. However, after that he couldn't do anything, as I hide my raid behind an asteroid field...

Shadows for me. Strength through Chaos. Plus, being SM is probably the best ability in the game, especially now that we have shields. Just don't mention our fighters.

And that's cool. If this was war. Which it isn't. It's a game, which suddenly isn't fun when you simply can't win. Not "can't" as in "This will be incredibly hard and almost impossible". "Can't" as in "There is no way, within the rules, for you to win this scenario." The downside of high...

In that regard, they play somewhat similiar to Dilgar. Have trouble hitting, and hate when Interceptors stop what does hit, but can do some major damage.

Change it so that the Shadow Scout weapon cannot be intercepted anymore. That has to be the most ridiculous thing I ever read. Shadows use beam technology on all their ships.

Seriously dude. I second (maybe third by this point) that motion. Funny, but only until you realize that someone just composed an EPIC for you to read. And that they are all B5 jokes.

You know, I find it funny that the arguement is only between whether twin-linked and evasive are simultanous (as i believe) or twin-linked happening first, then evasive happening. Why shouldn't evasive happen first, then twin-linked? So you would roll to hit, re-roll all your hits, then...

Actually, I believe you would just re-roll all dice, aka cancel the effect. Example: I fire a 5 AD weapon. I score 2 hits, three misses. Due to Twin-linked, I would re-roll the misses. At the Same Time, due to Evasive, I would re-roll both my hits. Since I've re-rolled all the dice, I cannot...

I don't think you have enough Vorlons or Shadows. :lol:

How's that been working out? It would seem to negate fighters altogether, which would be completely againest the lore as seen in the Holy Trilogy.
