It would be nice to get the credit for a job well done.


You should think of yourself as a secret agent. You can never speak of the job you do. You can never tell anyone, no one will ever know. Super secret Agent buffer pilot.

where do we get these new flags at?  and can you come up with something like battlestars.  10 missions equal 1 star. and so on. now if i could just get someone to do a pink 17 for me everything would be right in the game.

If you get some air to air kills you get your name in lights right?

That means you took at least some risk whether intentionally or not.  

If buffers are going to get building kills what about jabo's and vehicle's brick n mortar victories?

Sorry, I must have learned completly wrong. Bombers decided nothing in the past or today.


And what do yall think TOD is going to revolve around? Guess HTC should drop that also considering toolsheds are pointless and should really just create a map with 3 bases all with atomatic spawns directly to 15k.

come on guys, whats with all the haten on me??!!:lol  Deep down im a fighter pilot.  I read Col. "Bud" Anderson's book, and there was a passage that blew me away.

"Us fighter pilots thought we were hot, compaired to bomber pilots.  We could fly, navigate, shoot, and drop bombs all on our own, bomber guys needed people to do all that for them."

"But when bomber crews met fighter pilotd in the bar (mainly P-51 pilots) they would buy a drink for those guys."

I love dog fighting, its where my heart is, but occationally i do like to have fun in bombers.  Id like to see some of you guys go up 23k in lanc and knock down all 3 vhs in one pass.  with ur salvo at 2.

I think TOD will revolve around armchair generals having missions planned for them by AI (which is good, as many could use some), and will involve many of the current fun police going about and bombing buildings that won't affect the fun of anyone in the scenario.  

I hope HTC gets it out asap.

I think you bomber pilots are opening a pandora's box here.  Do you REALLY want the whole arena to know EXACTLY who knocked down the FHs/VHs on furball island again?  Might want to sleep on that one.

As is, if you want some recognition, fly into an area at an alt where you might actually see an enemy, and DON'T suicide into your target.  Keep your alt and gun someone down...  Guys like 999000 do it all the time, I don't see what the big problem is.

Put it in perspective.  Not many of the AH buffs are launching from rear bases, flying at 25-30K for 8-10 hours before they drop and then fighting their way home.  They aren't facing high alt flak or heavy fighter attacks etc.  Not much problem with the AH weather or mechanical difficulties.  Unless they are living outside in snow, not many are dealing with the 60 below temps or hoping their oxygen supply doesn't fail.  And there aren't 10 guys all working to make a single AH buff complete it's mission, much less 30 guys filling out the crew of your typical single pilot buff box.

Somehow the WW2 bomber pilot comparison just doesn't work under the circumstances :)

Who cares ? I certianly dont care for peoples complaints if I spend my time climbing to 15k or so and taking down FHs. They have the abilities to defend.

And in recognition of your Elite bomber skills, let me be honored and bestow the 2nd Official Tool Shed Warrior's Rainbow Flag of Elite Excellence in the field of Milkrunning and Tool Shed Destruction.  



Congratulations BlueJ1, without your tireless efforts in your quest to send to Hell any tool shed you run across or milkrun that undefended base, we would be forever lost.

I accept the award. I only hope to keep up this non-skill in the future.
