milkshake Posted March 6, 2001 Share Posted March 6, 2001 Firstly, You never challenged me to a game of XWA, which I presume this is as this is an XWA forum, and you can't train someone to be a batter (Tee-Hee) over the internet very well ------------------ Self proclaimed Forum 90's Dude milkshake@milkshake.co.uk 'Now, if I could just say a few words, I'd be a better public speaker.

Guest Rogue 9 Posted March 6, 2001 Share Posted March 6, 2001 sure you can teach them, you just shoot them down until they learn to avoid you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jabba The Hunt Posted March 6, 2001 Share Posted March 6, 2001 what im worried about is that milkshake "says" he can shoot a tie down from 0.5 k and i have to be about 0.25 and that gives me a few problems when going head on!! I also think u can train people over the net u just have to teach them meanurves etc... oh an milkshake i have challenged u to a game of xwa look at the top of this post! ------------------ If I Was any more laid back i would be horizontal jabbathehunt@hotmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jem Posted March 6, 2001 Share Posted March 6, 2001 Originally posted by Jabba The Hunt: I also think u can train people over the net u just have to teach them meanurves etc... Ok, I'll try: first step before the battle to see who is batter is the development of quicker hips and the relationship of hip speed to the entire swing. So what you do is place a bat behind the waist, horizontal to the ground, and use a glove as home plate. While holding the ends of the bat in the hands, assume a normal batting stance and watch an imaginary pitch being delivered. Execute a stride and quick turn using the bat to help turn the hips faster. Finish in the proper contact point position. Next I'll teach you how to bring your hands first when hitting, improving bat speed and power. I'm glad to help <font size=1> [This message has been edited by Jem (edited March 05, 2001).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Zoom Rabbit Posted March 6, 2001 Share Posted March 6, 2001 Note: I am unversed in XWA, but this is how I learned in XvT. If the game is set up similar, you can apply the same idea... I learned by going to the training menu and going into the 'custom dogfight' scenario. I started with plain TIEs, then worked my way up until I was taking on all the different ships (including the capitol ships) at once. You get blown up a lot at first, but after about a month or so you should be jiggy enough to kick butt on the combat scenerios. My only specific piece of starfighter advice: think of your shields as another big capacitor for your laser cannon, and keep them topped off when you're fighting. It makes quite a difference... Other than that, don't crash into things (unless their shields are reading weaker than yours.) ------------------ 'I can fly.

Seriously though, I haven't played XWA or any of the XW series for a good 6 months now. I could still probably lay waste to most of the guys in here though. Just ask some of the other RAL guys who was always punching their ticket. ------------------ "With the blast shield down, I can't even see. How am I supposed to fight?"
