Well, as a reflection on the First Meet up, two things are clear:

1. People are intimidated by the Clan Tag BAYT

2. The level of intimidation is not indicative of our actual threat.

I dunno, those galleon rounds at the end were pretty slick.

Yeah, we were literally tanking everything and shooting stuff down left and right, despite me fucking up with the ship loadout a few times. We only died a total of two or three times across three matches.

[Ygdrad]

I recorded some matches, sadly, the game's graphical issues I ran into ruined the videos of our awesome galleon runs, there was no video, just sound so I won't upload those unless you want to just listen to us and imagine the fight.

[Graknorke]

It did happen though guys, really.

[Ygdrad]

Those galleon runs were super organized, it's like our inner dwarves all linked up and we split all the tasks without even needing to communicate, our second run was definitely organized on purpose after we saw how well the first one went. We won that first round despite an entire side of our Galleon being useless, and that second round despite our beloved captain mis-picking the guns through either a mistake or a bug and giving us a second set of iffy guns

Our Pyramidion flights were fun. I'm still learning the ins and out of ships, and I don't like how that one turns, but everyone performed admirably. I had a blast

[Ygdrad]

I still have 2 extra copies if anyone wants 'em

Also, we're online! Come join in!

I sent you a pm about that spare key if you still have it.

The pyrmidion is the one with the two foward guns right? I thought I did a decent job as gunner, if only to force them to maneuver to avoid my wild shots ":p

[Ygdrad]

I've uploaded the two matches I managed to properly record.

I'm pretty sad I wasn't able to make the first meeting. Might there be another one soon?

You can always just join up the steam group and add us to friends. I just had a bunch of nice galleon matches with 2 Bay12 members. Managed to catch some great footage from an engineer/gunner point of view. I should have 3 galleon matches uploaded to youtube today.

[Skyrunner]

This sounds fun, but I probably can't play ;_;

I sneezed and juliusclonkus on Steam ended up buying the collector's edition because god damn it it's just 10€.

If you want to see what the game is like, I've got 2 videos showing off the game from a pilot's point of view linked on page 7. If you're interested in a crewman's perspective, I just finished uploading and processing footage of 3 matches aboard Graknorke's Murder-boat galleon. First fight was a loss, the other two were great victories, a lot of fun was had as our enemies got boat-murdered.

The goldfish magmacarp is fun - it seems like it's imperative to pop balloons with the huge-ass main gun and making sure the enemy is too much on fucking fire to shoot back by spraying the ship all over with the Dragon's Tongue on the right.

If you haven't yet, join up the Steam group!

Second event scheduled, this one is set 7pm Mountain Time.

I have been setting the events in part to see how everyone's schedule works together. I imagine -7 GMT isn't best for everyone, so I'd like to set up an event for other time schedules as well. Just tell me what a good time is.
