How long does it take to warp back out, especially compared to the time it takes for them to lock on and annihilate us?

Without focus, would take 5 rounds and you would be expending half your power on it for those rounds.
With focus would take 2, and you would have to expend 9 power over those rounds. If you have initiative, then you would only have to endure a single round of fire, but that is plenty enough for you to be destroyed, unless you got very lucky with misses.
You can also do a regular retreat, but success is not guaranteed.

Based on what I see so far, it looks like we can kill #1, since the enemy already damaged the armour covering the bridge, but I don't know if we can handle the 2 support ships. Also our reactors are in very vulnerable areas.

Although I do see that we can probably kill #3 by shooting it in the central reactor since the enemy has already eroded the engine that was protecting it.

Question is, how will we handle #2?
I like this plan. Two should be fairly easy to intimidate once we take down it's equal and juggernaut.

That's all part of Dude's genius plan. We can also get some armor so we're less shit.

Or. Or. We can not be stupid and wait for later opportunities without risking our life if we roll bad.

Non-suicidal tactics are for cowardly Non-Player Characters!

I think you have that in reverse. Suicidal tactics are for idiot ball wielding npc's. Let's not hold the idiot ball here Kay?

That's not a fix, that's idiocy speaking. I have a feeling that the GM will not let us get away with pulling a stupid.

if we have to much FUN and die then we restart and be smarter. but for now lets be so stupid that the plot favors us.

its all a matter of seeing if we are in a world that favors the idiot bold or if we are in a world that favors the cautious.
if we find out, we can apply the appropriate genre savvy tactics.

right now it fairly obvious we are in si-fy action, with a helping of mystery. but we need more savvy. we need to be the dangerous genre savvy.
