ANML School of Combat

Finished with my reclusive escape, playing Skyrim in the back of my auto-piloting Moth in orbit of Sedina II.

I just uploaded two video walkthroughs of in-game, combat related topics: Dropping queen shields and setting up chainfire (both under "Trainees"). Feel free to help by writing, filming, and submitting ideas of your own. Much thanks for any new material.

So here's a sweet shot of Varnak Toombs making some overzealous passerby (Thor Ree) go POP! I'm using a few plugins like "movesectorinfo", "Targetless", and "CustomHUD" to give my 32in plasma as free of a view as possible (notice the sexiness of the new PAtriotic HUD skin by Interstellar). Keep those blaster cannons hot y'all! And keep up the good work VT!

I just added a "classes" category to the forums page. I will be adding a few walkthroughs and how-to's that i think are necessary. These are not for in-game lessons, more like self teach tutorials for specific things. Any ideas on what those things should be let me know.

Posted some PvP vids of me and Aton Clavan of FAMY doing some PvP. Also added a video on cracking a queens shields:

This is Corona Oceana vs. varnak toombs.

Both in Vulture MkIII's.
This is probably the best audio syncing, the action all happens in the chorus'.

This was a fun fight between our main guys, Hippopotamus Hustler, and Corona Oceana.
It is in first person of Corona Oceana.

Hippo first approched me with this idea a little while back and I really liked it. I thought having a school for proper PvP in VO would be an awesome edition as certain pilots have shown that they may have learned a few bad tricks not usually recommended during PvP.

I also thought that PA would like to house this school and support it. We have always had a few good PvP pilots and we also have the resources neccessary to support this school. As such I feel this school can greatly benefit both PA and VO by aiding in the fun had by all.

So, I hope you enjoy your time with the ANML School of Combat and that you become ever skillful at the daunting art that is PvP.

Corona Oceana teaches Otto about the importance of dodging flares! (btw that is not lag you are seeing, Corona in an X-1 is like a damn mexican jumping bean)

This video has slightly better quality than the first but im still having trouble finding the codecs needed for mp4 conversions. And since this one and the last one were captured during the same in-game session they were both on the same .glc file and therefore, is lacking audio again...

No worries mate! (as the great aussie Corona might say) because my friends make music to fight to! Yay for dubstep! Heres a track by another good pal who calls himself Bleep Bloop. Keep those hearin-holes tuned to the picture-radio, and prepare to get your nuts smashed! With knowlege :]

Otto made one slip and stopped moving. So I lit him up like a fine cigar.

Hope you like the track i added to compensate for the lost audio during the .glc conversion (i meant to say .glc, not .cli, its all mumbo jumbo to me anyways). Its a song called Aeden (the name of that pretty young girl on the album cover) by my good friend Emmet Ross Cole aka PinkyBearThuggin. If you like it, All his music is free to download at http://pinkybearthuggin1.bandcamp.com We all grew up together, and if you ever go to Burning Man stop by Wizard Camp, lovely bunch we are.

I decided to make the news blog the home page and the "About ANML" (former home page) will just be an explanatory introduction to the school. Also anyone who wants, members and admin alike, can now post to the home page blog, although member posts will need to be approved although I insist that trivial or subjective assertions be posted in the Forum rather than the homepage.

I decided to add a news blog that can be updated anytime by admin and myself. Here we will be posting any new updates pertaining to the school, be it jobs, class schedules, requests for arms/ materials, or really anything at all.

i wanted to start by thanking everyone who has joined the ANML School of Combat and I urge you to use this site to your advantage. It is in the early stages now, yes. But I can see it becoming a big thing down the line. Pilots in the verse need to know how to defend themselves and even for experienced vets, theres always more to learn.

Members feel free to add ideas for lessons in the forums and if anyone wants to help in the development of the site i could use more active admins. Also, urge any friends you meet out in the void to check out the school and apply if interested.

Keep it real y'all and lets all make the best of our immortality :]
