I fly full pelt into the centre of the enemy formation, taking out atl east one and usually taking the shields of another. (I always start firing at about 900 metres)
And dropping a mine or two as you pass is handy.
I lock onto a target and chase, tapping afterburners and strafe. I always flick targets too. If I'm after Ship A at an awkward angle and Ship B flys across my sights but at a better angle to chase I always switch to ship B.
My tactic seems to cause me problems with bounty hunters, as they take me a while to get rid (Except the first one) but it's working wonders against GC and Dragons, and worked against Mollys, Corsairs and the Rogues.

OT: Can you roll inthe game?

If it wasn't for the inky blackness of the night you wouldn't appreciate the brilliance of the stars...

what i do is as soon as i see them i fly right at them soting them then ram thaem

thesizzler , judging by your spelling I can imagin how well that works if you use that tactic all the time.


-It must be the Cardamine talking-

i like to use the enviroment to my advantage. so say if im in anstorid feild use astroids as cover and swing round them and fire then fire everything i've got them. or if there's an allied structer ,say a weapons platform, i stick close to it.

Another tactic of mine is chose one target and keep firing and once im past them hit the curise engins for a couple of seconds then swing round cover and open fire again, and repeat until all enemy are dead.

Or i nither of those work i, RUN LIKE HELL!

if i ever see another happy jumpy space bear im gona a blow a hole in its head!

only need a tizona 2 skyblast b's and a couple of hornviper's mkII and a sunslayer just fly toward them if it is a low armor ship i use the guns but a heavy ships is more triky fly straight at them and use engine kill and fire the tizona to kill the shield and launch the sunslayer works at one target but on multiply i have to take out the shields and kill some hull if it is enough i take distance and launch the sunslayer very frenzy like

yes,u are right!mines don't do anything to me at least but yhey are a great way to escape just go full throtle and leve a mine every 5 sec. for about 5 times.This techinque should be used if the bad guys keep shooting cruise disruptors.My general fighting tehnique is very similar to yours except i've changed my controls:no mouse flight to fly the ship i use the arrow keys and the mouse just for firing weapons it's much easyer to fly this way.
i have a special tehnique to fight the nomads using newtonian flight whit your booster:you check all the time your radar when you're in nomad country as soon as you find them get you're engine to 1 or 0 then start your booster and kill your engines fly forwoard to the nomads this way.you should have an opened window for about 4 seconds before u fly by them ,in this time you should fire at one nomad coninuasly,when you have past them,turn arround and repeat the procedure,it always worked because they stayd in a grup and they didin't have time to shred me
