Where in that did I suggest having a pack of torpedo boats CLOSE with a fast ramming ship?!<br/><br/>We were supposed to join up with Coral squadron, borrow their boarding parties, then head towards the Dildo together, and use the attack of Coral squad to hide a boarding action carried out by our ship using Coral Squad's boarding partys... And our own.<br/><br/>That plan has now become very very unlikely.<br/>...<br/><br/>No really.<br/><br/>...<br/><br/>The fact that no one onboard Coral squadron... those people who had already faced the Dildo and lost, mentioned their apprehension, or the fact that te Dildo's primary weapons were quite short range, or the fact that they themselves were torpedo boats, and not close range attack craft.<br/><br/>It speaks well of their bravery.  But very badly for their wits.<br/><br/>Honestly, I'm not sure what we're supposed to do now... go try to board a capital ship with no extra forces?  Try to duel with the Dildo ourselves, when they just survived the full firepower of a squadron without a scratch?<br/><br/>I'm baffled.  If we could rewind?  (sigh). Or ask the Dildo very nicely for a redo?  Maybe they'll back off long enough for us to try that again?<br/><br/>... this is my fault.  I never should have slept last night.
