I have not lost one of my lovely +25 Prometheus' from the challenge 
My attitude? I don't give a ****.
I will slowly circle the objective dropping guy's off, offering a gun platform to support an offensive and fly that sucker 2 foot off the ground at top speed (no afterburners or overdrives, just built like a brick)
Like its name suggests, Its bringing the fire 
Edit - my new favourite game is squishing snipers  |

Grats on playing a few games while being 100% ignored. Once they pull out anything over militia AV and have any intent to kill you, you'll change your tune.
You presume much?
I'm often hit by AV, I either ignore it or circle round to boost depending on what caused it. If anything I seek AV to get the blueberries out.
What really confuses me is the flaylock kick  that is outrageously exaggerated for the damage caused (how dare he scratch my paint!) |

militia FG does 1300-1400 base damage.
Assaults can hit 2200 and about 1.5x more if in the 'weak spot'.
I've made every conceivable drop ship fit and know too well their durability. Even with an AB, logi ships are slow. Their vertical acceleration is terrible. There is no fitting for any ship which can tank more than 3 assault forge hits without being dead.
There is no assault forge gunner is is bad enough to not take down a logi DS in a skirm/dom. If they got within 200-250 meters of you they could kill you faster than any defenses, reps or maneuver could save you. The math does not add up that you'd live if anyone tried to really kill you. Got lucky.
Yes the math isn't in the favour but it is a big (ok not really) battlefield and we're not the only players. All I can say is I wouldn't run a DS if we didn't have lots of active players who know what they're doing. If I take a forge hit I know my corp mates will prioritise to take it down if it means the built in CRU can stay near the objective to bring in more mercs.
Also why should I go up? I don't need climb when the cover is ground based. If I climb wouldn't I be presenting myself as an easier target?
We all need luck. If I'm going -¡-¡20-¦2 battles and no loss of DS then I don't mind being called lucky |

I'll give it 3 games before an RDV knocks you outta the sky. And maybe 2 games before an assault forge will wreck any feeling of skill right out of you faster than you can do a thing.
Lol me and skill |

Lol me and skill Not saying it couldn't happen. Just that it won't. Sometimes people hit the lotto. You won't be so lucky with me as a witness. I'll put good money on that
Well I'd have to agree. Cus then the 'plan' would be to survive. and no plan survives contact with the enemy  |

Cus then the 'plan' would be to survive. and no plan survives contact with the enemy :P maybe that's my problem. I'm usually trying to survive when an RDV decloaks inside of me : /
also my problem, I've been planning to crash these freebies for weeks but I keep missing the ground :P |
