Don't get me wrong, it sounds like fun, as someone who enjoys doing bombing runs every now and then I would love to actually run into some real danger to add to the realism. This would force them to get together fighter cover and bring together a real nice little furball, bombers and all.

I wouldn't think of it as anti-hording since you are really giving most of them exactly what they want.

In conclussion: Good idea :aok


If most of them wanted to be engaged they wouldnt attack undefended bases...

I think S.H.E.E.P is a winner..We should change it up a little since we to have a horde that milk runs...

And of course Lev is out  there flying against the Horde busters tonite, probably figuring he'll get some seriously good dogfighting in :)

One hell of a furball... Just got finished fighting between 17 & 18 and its still going. Started about 700pm and it is now 1026pm. The horde had 18 in its grasp so a few of us upped to start picking off the heavies and low and behold fighters by the dozens started upping from 17. This took pressure off of 18 and the conga line from both sides started and met in the middle. There were high fights, low fights, strat guys still flying bombers furballers chasing them, escort fighters the works. killed some died more but it was intense and it was fun. Only question i have is, WHERE WERE YOU GUYS?

Yeah, I was doing that "tip of the spear" sort of thing.  I didn't feel like joining eight guys on one unlucky enemy over by 17, so I flew way ahead of the horde and engaged lots of enemies right by 18 instead.  Fun stuff.

Then it is off to the next large darbar to find more horde to feast on. The Rooks had the RJO. The Bish had er um hmmm just a horde I guess. The Knights shall have THE ANTI-HORDE HORDE!!!!!!


A great Idea, in fact I thought of it about 5 months ago! I hope you get more momentum than i was able to. I think I had a thread called Horde Busters, or somthing like that. Like i said, I hope you get better results than I did. Gameplay needs all the help it can get.:aok

(edit: I bumped the thread I originally thought of it in "Aces Horde")

I was out getting drunk with some friends until after midnight (which is pretty good for a married guy going on 40). But I'll look for it next time I log on :)

Jamusta,

Good going there announcing this on the BB. What happens???? You got the Rooks back up to 30k hoarding again last night. The 56th was up doing sweeps. Every sweep the Rooks were 2-5k higher. We kept coming back 2-5k higher each time. Soooo you do the math. AH2 don't got space ships so we didn't go that high.

So Jam.......you got any more bright ideas you wanna share with all 3 countries??????:D

Actually after my initial contact i noticed they werent expecting to see me that high most just flew pass on there way to 18. Those that did engage did a couple of passes then dove to the deck. So I stayed high until I reached 17. I swooped down and started to shoot down fighters and bombers as they were climbing out. I ended up getting killed so I upped again and headed over to 17. This time i never made contact with anyone until I got to 17. I noticed that they were lower. Each time I went back the fight was lower until it was on the deck. Persistance my friend bustr persistance...
