I was going to say that Vympel's plan kinda struck me as akin to taking a car back to medieval times and trying to keep it running...
Then I thought...
Car... medieval times... chainsaw... boom stick...
There's a potential Bruce Campbell movie in this topic.

But don't forget, the usual SW action is:PeZook wrote:
As to what I would do: I'd run away from the BOP, since I've got no idea what the hell it is, but it's big enough to probably hurt me (remember, you're a smuggler from the SW galaxy. Your usual route is to run away instead of picking fights, and you are working from an SW frame of reference)
Run away while firing.
You might accidentally destroy the BOP with the covering fire

Brian,
Does this preamble...
I am also concerned at various posters' [perhaps wholly light-hearted] assertions that Millenium Falcon would easily dispatch a Bird-of-Prey with her quad lasers. If anyone is serious about that idea, would they kindly back it up with some figures?

? While the latter point is probably true (Falcon could withstand several low-megaton ranged light turbolaser hits over the course of a minute or so in TESB), how will she help the underequipped Maquis "crush" the Cardassians?I would help the Maquis crush the Cardassians. I wouldn't kill unless I needed to, as my shields would easily laugh off anything but an entire fleet firing at me.
If we assumed Falcon's concussion missiles' yield were comparable to Slave One's, I could see her taking down one cube. But the whole Collective? Again, you have to be kidding!Maybe I would help the Feds, but more likely I would help the colonists. Maybe appear out of nowhere killing the Borg cube in BOBW and going to hyperspace before anybody figured out what happened. Maybe go to Borg space and take them out, for the good of the galaxy.

Pain, or damage, don't end the world, or despair, or fuckin' beatin's. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, ya got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man ... and give some back.
