I think they have all they need to know. Maybe we'll take 262s as escort :P


AR234 mission with 262 escorts..... the bombers will get through lol :D

Amen.  Don't see that in the first mission, but if FiLtH reaches anywhere close to his original goals eventually, these runs would be able to shut down much of a zone's offensive capability.  Nice way to counter a "horde" in progress.

Hey 96Delta!  L.C.A. cursing my name in Rook-land yet since I defected?

262's (or even 163's) not a real big concern if we have a decently tight and staggered (vertically and horizontally) box formation.   Massed interlocking fields of fire are a beautiful thing.   A buzzsaw in the sky.  A few escorts will help of course to keep them honest.  Boogie-man always gets the stragglers....

Dedicated gunners spread among the group would be a great idea.... expecially a good positon for new players that are not really up on buff operations.... gives them a ring side seat to observe and take part in the run, without struggling to learn to fly buffs on the run.

If I get the chance, I'll run a couple training flights in the TA or war arena tomorrow night well before launch time for any noobs I find that heard about this already.

If we do indeed up from multiple bases...and just in case we have combat losses...just in case :P    I think we need a few guys ready to fall in and take over. MGD is a squaddie and will be one, Ted, Delta you willing to be other 2?

I like the idea for Friday night.  Get everyone together in a tower, then switch to another base some distance away and off you go, and maybe it will prevent some from camping out at altitude just waiting on the buffs.
Should be fun either way!

Going to try to recruit a gunner
« Reply #21 on: December 07, 2006, 11:50:11 PM »
I got a friend of mine that does some gunning with me when im up. I'm gonna ask him tomorrow if he would be down with gunning with me for this flight. He wants to check it out too. I would say that if anyone knows of any gunners, they should ask em, and if so the ones with extra tail people, can run at the end o the line, if enough show up, then back and bottom would be a good place to place em in formation.

Cheers

Forgot who said this while trying to take a base, but the quote goes like this. "I cant help you with ack, Im not in attack mode" This is with only 2 ack up in the town while troops were there, waiting. The rest of the town was down.

Easy way to solve that problem is to pick the target AFTER the bombers are airborne. That's how they used to do it on many occasions. They would brief on several targets and once the bombers had launched, command would radio the formation with the target to hit. Filth is the flight lead (I assume) so once formed up, follow his lead and once he points the nose at a target, off you go.

with just me flying, in 2hours i can get city below 40% and 1 strat traget to 55ish...

the main issue is getting the rest of the "country" to relise theres a opertunity there to hurt them.

sure we might get troop factory down to 10% (making resupply about 1h50ish?) but if no one is porking troops whats the point?

2am uk time.... should be there. Bish right?
