Vultching in CT

flew a few hops in the CT...fun setup btw...allies pounding the southern fields...down to 1 base with 50% fuel...upped a 163 under "cap"...got by the take off vulch and had a fun couple of fights before the old heater flamed out...down to 25%...upped a 262 and had fun till I got caught hanging (was flaming out anyway::)...upped a tony since cap was tight...vulched with wheels on runway...BYE

Again fly how you like...but I'll act accordingly. whats interesting here is the guys who CAN fly are all for letting folks up...the ones who cant...don't.

And yes I prefere to roll get some speed and start a combat with someone that has E advantage and try to shoot him down.

It is all about good combat and not turkey shooting.

So.... it is not about being cute :lol just to have a fun.


Artik:

I agree entirely, I was simply poking fun at my Bud Arlo.

Well said Artik.

Well . . .

If flight capability was the determinant I'd be sitting on bases in a Tiger blowing Oldman and Arlo up before they engaged their motors.  Once I asked Oldman after he killed me: "How were those moves"? and he said "You were moving?"

Hehe,

Obviously there are alot of variables here...but there is no challenge...or reason to pop someone before they can even get wheels up in the CT. Personally I'd love to see both GV's and base capture disabled in the CT...add some auto kill ack and it would be perfect:). CT used to be where you went for some real air combat...seems to be where the weenies go more recently.

If that's the best response you got, Rambo ... then you shouldn't have bothered, amigo. ;)

I can see you're quite dedicated to appealing to other's sense of propriety when it comes to vulching but apparently that's where it ends. :D

That's no excuse. You either have your own personal code of honor or you don't. What has anyone else got to do with it? :D

What Eskimo2 said ... Bravo!  

It's nice to be chivalrous and it's nice to vulch, and I've done both and plenty other stuff, and apparently a lot of other people have too.  Depends on the circumstances.  

The Great Truth underlying all this seems to be that most people naturally use, within equipment limitations and published rules, whatever tactics facilitate their survival and victory.  

It's much easier refining our individual equipment skills than it is to secure consensus on UNpublished rules, or convince others that our interpretation is the method of choice.  

Even if all posters to this thread agreed on every fine point, there would be many others who would never get the word, and might not comply if they did.  Can't let a little thing like that ruin our day.  

DA seems to be the best place to joust, but even there the best defense is often a good sense of humor.  

So ... in this game expect anything, savor the moments when we happen to fight kindred spirits, and keep learning from situations that don't offer redemption in real life.

Sheesh, are we still talking about this?

I got vulched in the CT last night, wanna know what I did? I sent the guy a and said "Good vulch, I never saw you comming" and shrugged it off. Big f'in deal, you give some, you get some.

I'll say this one more time, dont wanna get vulched, dont up at all, just fly offline. Pleas spare me the tears.

Maybe you "waa, I got vulched" crybabies should stick to box games.
