Invisible Bots

Aug 10, 2004 roguelazer link
I was doing a Border Patrol mission in Deneb E7 when I had the unfortunate luck of meeting an invisible bot! Once I got there, I came under attack from three bots- a Serco Centurion, and Assault II, and a patch of empty space firing tachyons. Needless to say, the invisible bot killed me. Here's a purty picture for you that like 'em. Note the stream of tachyons coming from the left.

Yep. Had one yesterday...Not visible, didn't show on radar. It's shots were very effective though.

Same here, in Nyrius F8, in a storm sector. It appeared as if only one Guardian was chasing me, so I turned to explain him why is it such a bad idea. As I got into dogfight, I noticed shots coming from empty space as well. Luckily I was able to finish the visible one with about 92% of hull integrity. I ran before the other, invisible one, because it was untargetable and its shots stung...
