Cough cough cough um what?

The other night they was rollin on a undefended field when i ended that with my 110.

They then proceeded to go too the next undefended field.

it is just so cool to capture undefended fields then talk smack like they are doing something.

They get slammed for attacking fields where a fight is going on.

They get slammed for attacking undefended bases.

You guys have high standards. Maybe bombers don't belong in AH?

   there actually are people on these boards that will argue that...and that GV's don't either. It sounds to me like there are many people in this imaginary world that need to develop & market their own WWII combat game. No offense to anyone, I just find it funny how some people are never satisfied, but I suppose that's how we get better everything...someone says "I don't like XXXX & I think it should be XXXX" Then they go out & do it; sometimes they succeed in making a better product...sometimes not.

475th saw that the other day.  We upped when they tried to attack a undefended base and they outnumbered us easily with a 2 to 1 if not 3 to 1 advantage.  They died to quick and got to much resistance so they attack some other undefended knight base.  We follow them and put up resistance again and then they look to another undefended base.  

Guess they dont like fighting resistance especially when they die so quickly.

Loose Cannons Base Capture Dicta

Rule #2 : Attack where the enemy is weakest.
Secure the advantage early and suppress any emergent resistance.
If you cannot prevail quickly, attack elsewhere.

"To be certain to take what you attack,
attack where the enemy cannot defend."

Had to skip from page 2 straight to 6.....knew it would be repetitive anyway......as I'm sure I'm being now.

I've only flown a few times in the last few months due mainly to.."burnout" or "boredom". I'm not even aware of "LCA" but I give em a big HERE HERE!

If you're havin fun you're playing the game as it is meant to be played. Matter of fact, I may have to look you up at your next Knight target!

Sounds a little philosophical I guess....but thank god for these interesting threads and for my squadmates and friends from over the years, or I'd have forgotten about AH years ago!

C HAWKS/RTC Alliance may have to give you a little of your own medicine as we've been called "to organized" lately...

It was a target rich environment and nothing happened to our field nor was it taken.
Thanks

I sure hope you don't live in Dyersburg, Tn and all is well.

I live in Arkansas just west of Memphis, we got a tornado in my town & some damage, but the damage was relatively minor & not at my home so I got lucky...it missed my place about 3 miles to the north. My father was at my house at the time & saw the funnel on his way into my storm cellar. Thanks for the concern; that's really decent of you. I hope others on AHII faired as well as myself.

 My apologies for the de-rail.

Filth, you are a fountain of intriguing ideas.

I fought Bish earlier today. Id up a flak and kill a guy, then an IL 2 and kill some gvs. They'd move to another base, where there was no defense, rinse repeat. It depends on the players. Some guys like a good knock down dragout, others want the easy win. I hate the "Shop for an easy target" game. It takes all the feel of combat out, and turns the game into Mother May I.

   Once an attack is started, it should follow through till one side gives in due to better flying of one side, or numbers log off.

Good ta hear you're all ok. I'm Memphis. There's a few of us who live here. It passed north of the city, and our town, so we fared ok also.
