Unsung Multiplayer Heroes

A few weeks ago I was playing Star Wars Battlefront Renegade Squadron on Infrastructure Mode (Online against other real people.) We were playing a conquest in Naboo. (It really didn’t look like Naboo.)
Let me explain the rules. To win conquest mode, you ,must either capture all the commant posts and hold them for 1 minute, or deplete all the enemies’ reinforcments. When you are killed, you can select a command post to respawn at and start again, but your team loses 1 reinforcment. You have to wait for a respawn wave, and you can only respawn if your team controls a command post (otherwise you’d have nowhere to respawn.) Command posts are captured by standing next to them untill the enemy colour drains out of them and your colour fills it up.

So, I joined in the game and we were losing badly. I’d spawned at our last command post, right at the middle of the map, with a massive battle raging all around me. I knew I couldn’t beat these guys (I got the game a few days before that) so I activated my stealth suit and got out of there. I made my way to a deserted enemy controlled command post and started draining it, still invisible. Meanwhile, all my teammates at the massive battle were either dead or about to die. Suddenly the enemy got the command post and all the dead from the battle had nowhere to respawn. I neutralised the command post I was at, and it started to slowly fill up with my colour, but my Stealth suit ran out of charge.
The enemy must have noticed me capturing their command post, because I started to see some dots on my short range radar, just around the corner. The command post turned completely my colour, but I couldn’t run, because the enemy would get it and then we’d be toast and my stealth suit hadn’t finished recharging. It was at least 8 to 1. And these weren’tv crappy AIs either, there were real people. They came round the corner and suddenly, a respawn wave must have gone off, because I was surrounded by my team, all those people who died in the battle and were stuck with nowhere to respawn for ages. Another massive battle started, and when my suit recharged, I activated it, and snuck off again, with dodging the orbital strikes all around me (its not an invulnerability suit you know).
When we finished the game, I wasn’t even at the top of my team’s chart, because I hadn’t killed many people.
I saved their butts! I bet other people have done that too.
If you have, well done.
