Great job on the video, Ash. Thanks for hosting this, Cherry and Fanged. I had a great time. One of the coolest things I've done in this game. Yessir. This is up there with my first Lusca team, first Hami raid, and first Rikti invasion.

Here's some pics I got - it was a blast to see them being zapped instead of doing the zapping...
Thanks to the organizers, and everyone who hung around while the Rikti gathered up the courage to face us.

I'm glad that everyone had a great time, again sorry it took so long but as this was trial and error we have come up with ideas for the next time around... Thanks again Champs it was good fun all around...
I was lucky in that I didn't have to do much leading on my team. They were fairly self-sufficient. Follow. Point. Aim. Fire.
This left me to my own devices, which including doing a lot of screencaps. You're welcome to copies.
I'm way too lazy to pick and choose which ones I like...
So instead... have access to the albums on photobucket.

WOW! your pics turned out better than most of mine, thank you for sharing, this was a real blast!
I want to thank again Cherry-2000 for pulling this together and Fanged Knight for helping cherry lead this.
A special thanks to all those who were there for their patience, it was a long wait but well worth it! EVERYONE showed how good they can be.
To summarize: WAAHHHOOOO!!!!! ***FANTASTIC***
Heh. I see the confusion. I'm referring to some kind of badge for destroying drop ships.

Oh, okay. Well at least they give some reward now. Used to be all you got was a nice explosion and a warm glow of accomplishment.

I am so telling
This was great fun!
Nice to turn the Table on them for a change.
I had Trollbabe out... my very first character from back 5 years ago... she's only a 25 tanker... but she flys... so she was the one... I even see her in a few pics. I didn't know there was a group in the game called the Trolls, but, when I made her I picked their exact green shade for skin... lol ... ram-style horns though.
I took a few screenshots, but haven't looked at them yet

anyone know how many were there, i think last i looked at the zone it said 138? That was about 10 mins before the ships started..

MajorTom Got me Firing the Dimensional Grounding Ray from the Kahn TF at the Drop Ship. I have NO idea why I thought it would help.
But they were going down so fast, I figured, What the heck Try it?
Great Vid there Ash.
This was fun.
And I agree there should be a badge for this. There is a Badge for defeating every other class of foe in the Rikti Raids, why not a badge for the Drop Ships? And that's Hooey that they were never meant to be destroyed (as Ping pointed out to me last night on Ventrillo) there is no other explosion in the Game like the one that happens when a drop ship dies. Someone spent alot of time on that, and someone wanted that explosion to be seen.
I think they should have a badge.
And I want to say, WOW. to the Champion community. I never would have guessed this many people would have turned out for a low to no reward event. I wish we could get this many for Hami Raids more often!
Thanks Again to Cherry 2000 and EVERYONE who decided to attend!
LONG LIVE THE ORO BRIDGE!

That is just a fantastic video and love the song! Great screengrabs everyone!! I was Razor Vein (at 0:16 in the video, blonde with feisty tails and blast tights!) and was on the same team as Demobot I thinks. Too bad I didn't think to record or do some screen grabs of my own cause I am dumb cause now I can't even remember the name of most of my teammates or leader although there were lots of them with Templar in the name so I thought somebody was multiboxing until I realized it's a SG name. Yeah anyway that totally rocked hard core and there absolutely should be a badge for downing a drop ship just like with all the other GM's in the game.
Oh and my favorite part prior to the Rikti showing up was all the Alakazamreact transformations and the bridge to nowhere of course.

Nice Group Shot

Great job all! Champion proved our namesake once again. Thanks to Cherry for organizing! Awesome video Ash!
