OOC: Great >.>)
IC: Noticing they couldn't shake off the tentacles on conventional ways, one of the battleships disabled it's shields, which were outside the tentacle anyway, cut all power that wasn't totally necesary, including that of the engines, and put all the power back into the shields, making the shields in between the tentacles and their own hull, and enlarging the shield, bringing it further from the hull, and pushing the tentacle outwards. After this proved somewhat successfull, all the other battleships did this, after which they powered their engines again, and rushed forwards, either escaping from the tentacle, or cutting their wings into it, and some even through it.
OOC: Note, that every battleship has 4 wings, if you have wrapped around my ships just once, your tentacle would be in 4 pieces, twice? it'd be in 8 pieces, etc.)
