Fail De Lances

Commander's Log, 12 April, 1159L:Does anyone who flys a Fer de Lance actually know how to use a large hardpoint?
Cause, it doesn't seem like anyone in an FDL has any clue what they're doing lately.
I got the memo about criminals hanging around Morrina, and subsequently did nothing for a couple of days. Well, okay, I did something. I managed to consolidate all of my ships worth hanging onto at Schroeder Gateway in the Hyldeptu system. No more random Hauler runs for this guy. By the time I finally had everything together, I was tired of Cordelia's viewport and sick to death of slaving. So...
One man. One Python. Total destruction.
Or at least that was the plan.
I got to Barjavel only to find out that the pirate problem wasn't actually there. Yay for high-wake travel.
I got the HazRES in Meinjhalara and... There wasn't really anyone worth mentioning. Oh there were big ships, big bounties associated with said ships, and plenty of bad guys to go around, but nothing so strenuous that I ever really had to sweat.
I think I greased 4 FDL crooks in less than 30 minutes of hunting them. The only pilot that served any kind of threat to me at all was a chick named Jamie flying a Federal Gunship. Now, that girl knew her way around a throttle, if you know what I mean.
It was almost like the real bad guys didn't stick around once the CG went out around to all the slack-jawed bounty hunters by way of the Gal Net.
I might have to buy a Fer de Lance just to see what all the hype is about. They're honestly way too easy to torch.
Or maybe I'm just that good.
