RES Rheinlanders Escort Service on Elite.

Tue Apr 29, 2003 4:11 am by JohnnyDakota

But that was my fun. I saw a group of 5 guys sitting in stuttgart and i figured i'd have a good fight on my hands. So i went down there. But when i showed up i saw you were in light fighters so i just wanted to scare the hell out of you (hence my fun). LIke i said before, is it fun being an escort service when there is no chance of dying?? hell no, so i gave you guy's the idea you were going to die. I had no intention of blowing those humpbacks to hell with diamonds in them. For god sakes, i may like to scare ppl, but i'm not an azzhole. And plus, I ddidn't want to sink to the lvl that Null was back when i started off. I was just lvl 6 i think with a full load of nubium in a rhino going back to liberty and he jumped me with a eagle full of skyblast B's. Now if THAT isn't azzholish.. i dont know what is.. Anyways, untill some action comes around (ie those OWL guy's show up to give the VHF's a war) i'd be keeping yer eyes scanning the horizon

hehe

Well all of us haul cargo when we escort, but yeah just leave the transports if you can.

Had another rather successful run the other day, took Holliday to get a Banshee, and then escorted him on the way to get an Eagle. That reminds me, I hate Corsairs in their Titans. The ship is easy to kill, but since I use lvl 6 and 7 weaponry it takes a while, and they NEVER fight you, the only damage I took was crossfire from Holliday. They also ALWAYS run, they hit cruise the second their shields go down, its annoying because I dont use cruise disruptors.

I hired the RES pretty much the whole night last night to escort my completely unarmed humpback. Never lost my cargo and we made enough big money runs to make me a millionaire several times over. I sold my hump and Hellmaster flew wing for me while I went to get my Eagle. We had fun, that’s what it is all about. And they kept the AI off of me while I ran freight. It really doesn’t matter if they can or can’t kill everything moving. All that matters is that the cargo is safe, and it always was.

We posted within minutes of each other. Sorry about the friendly fire. I saw it when it happened but you can't get those shots back once you pull trigger.

Yo hellmaster. I'd like to put in a good word for hellmaster. He and his wingmates protected me while carrying diamonds and he did an excellent job considering my ship is very weak. If you need help call the RES today!!
yo hellmaster you should come up with a little motto.

"You can pick your friends and you can pick your nose, but you cant pick your friend's nose."

I'm gonna start an account on elite probably tomorrow and pk the hell out of everyone.. escort services laff = there is no long dogfights- just you blowing up sissyboys

Hehe, ok, just be warned, we have "outsider battle consultants" (VHF Backup).

I saw GIVEUPTHEGOODS on tonight. I fly wing now for Hellmaster and the boys from time to time. You will know you were in a fight. Bring bots and bats, lots of em.

Exactly, just because we primarily use Light and Heavy fighters, doesnt mean we dont have the big guns. We have them, they just aren't on payroll.

This has to be one of the best Roleplay ideas i've seen so far... especially as it is based on a group with a distinct flavour, something thats really lacking on PvP servers (god the eagle is getting so boring...).

If my account still exists on Elite after the last down i think i'll trade in my bird of prey for my favourite fish and just have some fun.

Yeah i'll probably get whipped by every PVP Nut in his decked out eagle, but hey, thats life.

I really hope we start to see more defined groups like this, even with the imbalance in the ships. Maybe the modders will come up with something to put the VHF's on a level playing field, not make them identical, but give them all a fighting chance. That way we might see more people flying their favourite ship, instead of everyone flying the Eagle.

Dublin here i come...

I also have used RES to support my unarmed humpback. These guys are good. If you need an escort, these are the guys to ask. I have never lost my ship or my cargo while i was flying with them
