O.K we (Bish) finally lost it to you, but I had a blast for the 2 or 3 hours we staved off your attacks.
Got some new respect for the capabilities of the IL2 as a 'fighter' as we lost our FH's so many times lol.
Funny how 12-14 guys can really hold up a field capture as long as they don't mind getting vulched lots, and don't mind flying while vastly outnumbered.
In the end there were just too many of you (2 dar bars to our 14 guys).

Best fun I've had in AH2 for a long time .

Psst - Might wanna tell your newbies ho'ing an IL2 is not really a good idea :) .

Hear hear Kev. The fight you describe is great fun from both sides, but I prefer the defense you describe. There's great satisfaction in knwoing how frustrated your numerous tormentors must be that you just won't go away :)

I employed this tactic quite often as a bish..it is a rush, getting clobbered repeatedly while ruining the "capture" (otherwise known as extended vulch) and smacking a few on the way was fun. I seem to vulch now do to the fights migrating  to each field instead of in between where they are fun :(  nothing else to shoot but il2'S. luckily i have enuff time in them to evade easily

I got a real kick out of the complaint that I "HOed" someone as he attempted to vulch straight down the runway :)

Actually the Bish put up one hell of a fight on all fronts considering the numbers they had.

I will say it was no easy take at just about any Bish field.

Good fights
