It's a bummer when 20 28-pt corvettes approach at speed 24+ intent on
ramming your ESU carrier though. Odds are you'll take 3 dice of damage.
Then the survivors do it all again, after 2 turns (cinematic).

Even the NSL can do this tactic - they small stuff doesn't move as fast,
but it takes more than 1 hit to pop.
