don't be hating on ads pilots with <1 mil in their wallets man.
besides, who in the right mind would use an ads to ram instead of std (which has moar hp and is cheaper?) |

Most fun I had in a while must have taken down 6 or 8 of them and ended up being the only target of an OB twice (was calling in DS behind redline). I just couldn't stop laughing the whole match, partially because I was doing the Jaws theme the whole time.
A ramming DS is already cheap enough for people to throw them away like trash so a price reduction isn't going to increase rammers. Hell, I'd wager it might decrease them cause it wouldn't be as fun if I'm not costing someone a bunch of ISK each time. People like you that make us deserve an asteroid to sterilize the planet.
have you ever tried ramming? i'm serious, I did and found out it's not that easy as it sounds (well apart from those which are spawncamping :P) |

I don't know if I understood your post, but what I meant, was that ramming an ads with another dropship can be a very challenging task.
I've tried it on few ocassions, failed most of the time (or just circled around).
Why did I do it? Why not use the swarms to drive them away? Because he was pissing me off for 1/2 of the match, running away from my swarms with 300-400 armor. So I decided it will be much easier and cheaper to use a standard ds and try to ram him and make him lose ~300-500 k (which would probably made him go ISK negative in that match) or at least do similar work to what swarms did ( he had no time to shoot at infantry when trying to outmaneuver me trying to ram him).
(I hope this is comprehensible. I'm having some problems with my english lately :P) |

Infantry can run into a building, or deploy remotes/proxies @ choke points (although proxy damage sucks badly) |

not really, have you noticed that most of null cannons have some sort of cover? I don't even mean their "housing" but objects littered around , roofs etc
btw, I edited my last post, didn't write everything I wanted |
