I know from experience that trazers are deadly against carriers. I flew an Ish carrier up next to an aud carrier once... It killed me in about 3 seconds. Five trazers on you, each doing 30 damage every tick, making a total of 150 damage every tick is deadly. (So you know, concussive pellet guns fire every 5 ticks).

Five Trazers? Don't you mean three? I thought the Audemedon Carrier could only do three.

Well, I'm not so sure it would be so certain in the aud's favor. Remeber, these are carriers, which drift around to an annoying and ridiculous degree. The tazer doesn't have nearly the range of the bolt rod, and the carriers very well might kill the fighters before each other, where the sal carrier would have a clear advantage due to the range of its weapon and the fact its missle autotargets.

I just tried it, and the sals won easily.

I thought as much. The tazer is too short for a ship with that acceleration/manuverability. The Aud carrier accelerates/turns like an asteroid (all carriers do), and thus can't close enough to use its beam and can't aim its missles as well as a sal carrier with INSANE beam range and a turreted missle.

However, I wonder if we used multiple carriers (2 sal vs 2 aud, 3 vs 3, etc.) if the auds might have a chance through probability and dumb luck.

Heh Darkk you have 666 posts.....

Now, try this: 2 Carriers, 2 HVD's. The HVD's will go up close to the carriers.... maybe the Audemedons will win. If I included cruisers and Gunships that would definitely tip the balance in favor of Audemedons, but the HVDs are about equal.
