They killed 'the Cat'!

No! Enough is enough! I mean... what glory is there to be gotten from ganging up on a flimsy exploration-built Phantom? I am a bit upset with the Thargoids. So...
I started building on the Thiamethoxam. Someone is going to pay for the 'Only the Cat knows'. In chitin.
I absolutely have no idea what I'm doing. The "Thiamet" is a Krait Mk-II with a large gimballed beam laser with Vent, some plasma thingies and nicotine-tipped autocannons. Shields I was told have little effect so I left those out and went for the hull-tank option.
I do try to keep her well above 500 m/s and as nimble as possible. I doctored the distributor to never run out of weapon-power. Maybe "Charge enhanced" is for once better replaced with "weapon focused". Why have capacity for shields when you didn't bring any?
I took her to HIP 29596 to try her out a little.
Those little mushrooms I can easily shoot, but those Rafflesias are... harder. Much harder!
Of course I'm really bad at killing anything. I prefer to fight in fightwinders and preagles, if I fight.
More likely I'm outside the billion cubic lightyears the bubble and all active Thargoids are in. All threats out there are passive. You have to go look for them, they won't come for you.
Most likely I'm fed up with killing mushrooms pretty soon... I doubt I'll do it long enough to get any level of acceptable at it. But... who cares?
Not me for certain
Anyway... Wherever you may be, have fun! Maybe we'll touch hull.
PS. The vacuum-dried beef jerky was amazing!
