It's one thing to head there and try to cut the syndies off if you know they have the disk. Hell, if they have the disk and make it into space that's basically all you can do. But it's another(shitty) thing to just immediately go and sit there as soon as you know syndies are around. Although: there were things you could have done to get him out of the way. You could have used the RPG or an egun or syndicate pipebombs to damage him enough to force him to move, or come back in an armed pod of your own and exploited the fact that while he was tough he was also a slow as fuck pod with what is essentially a melee weapon to shoot at him from range and then slip in when he had to move to attack or avoid you. Or you could have boarded him and messed with his systems until he was forced to move. Trying to block you off was essentially fair game, especially since he didn't do what I've seen some people do and build a shitload of r-walls so that it would take you 10-15 minutes just to tear them down. Still, actually raiding the shuttle was shitty as hell.
