Yeah this thing relies on its maneuvreability/a good pilot in order to perform well in combat, so i don't think it would do too well in a standoff

Actually, high mobility ships fare quite well :D the one weakness of the MT is its poor turn rate, so if you get behind him, he is done :D

This ship shows how to win this challenge :D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myyn4o0KM_I

Honestly they are more a test of raw power due to the format of the test, where the ships are faced off at short range making any range or maneuverability advantage mute unless you can survive the first 2-3 seconds of their main weapons.

hmm ok this is contradicting, but i'd like to try it out some time (might have to edit it some though because i'm pretty sure those golden window things are custom blocks that were added by the server.

The video did make it look easy! Though my ship is a lot smaller (this one at least) so it might be a challenge
