Tank Town Bombing

[jaxxo]

umm no its not at all like ftr town....if ftr twn spawned you at 5k 5 miles from base and 50 guys were hovering waiting to kill you maybe.. i like to tank but spawning in while a bunch of dolts sit there for 3 hours a piece pointing and clicking is not a gv battle...egg the litte tards...its actually a good synopsis of how most of the game is played however.... minimum risk maximum wtg's on the buffer

It all makes sense now. I saw you land an obnoxious GV spawn camping sortie. No wonder you got so worked up over the thought of a someone stealing your precious GV kills.

And you called me a score potato for gaming the game.

You gotta love the hypocrites in this game.  



goodbye dweeb.

yea spawn camping from 5+k away.







You better stick to strafing tanks . Its more your speed.

Later Tard

Brenjen... you said
why come & complain when they do?

If, at all this was referring to me may I point out that I'm not complaining at being complained at.  I'm stating some facts for these guys to best understand where I'm coming from.

I get more  AIR kills than Gv kills and these guys should be grateful I'm not a heavy bomber freak.  I shell continue with my style of game play as and when it pleases me.

I know right.You always see someone on this BB typing " Isn't this game called Aces High?so why complain about tanks?"

It is true this game is called Aces High.


So why can't the Aces stay up High?

I dont agree with planes bombing TT.  Its just lame and illogical.  Those guys are there with their GVs to fight other GVs and have a good GV time.  They pose absolutely no threat to you.  Fighters and bombers should treat GVers in TT just like they treat planes; like they are not there.  The only time I would think it makes sense to egg a GV in TT is when they are spawn camping.  Treat others as you would like to be treated I guess.

Some people don't die in TT as easily as others & hunting them from the air doesn't afford them the opportunity to fight back.

Most times i got > 2 kills before death in TT was when i found good spot, sit here with stopped engine and shoot bad guys as they come into my sight. It give advantage vs enemy tanks but makes you easy target for planes. Looks fair for me.
And it is camping ever if you cannt shoot tanks at their spawn point.

Over the last few days I have been hanging out in Tank Town in me Hurri IIC.  Been having a blast carrying 2 x 500's and getting in the thick of the furball down low.

It has come to my attention that 2 GV players have taken exception to me laying 500 Lb'ers on them.  I would like to point out that the 2 players I bombed and who subsequently questioned my sexuality, parent hood and intimate relation with members of my own family, were not individually targeted by myself.  They just happened to be there.  Had our spawn been camped then they would have been my priority.  With no campers about secondary target were ANY Gv's..... nothing at all personal.

So to the next part of the grief.  I kill more air than Gv in tank town.  Only 2 x 500's and I'm landing more than 2 x Gv kills.  In fact I usually miss with the second 500Lb'er.  Should I at all be diving bombing GV's in Tank Town ?  You can bet your arse I should.  What you won't see me doing is bombing Tank Town VH's or worse, Low level carpet bombing in heavy bombers.  Had I done either of these two things I could and would expect the grief but me little old Hurri with just 2 bombs......come on !

So until bombs are taken outta tank town bases or these guys cough the 15 bucks I shell continue to dive bomb GV's and then get into the fight as and when it pleases me.

All legit IMO, however being a GV'r myself it get's refrustrating to be in a great GV battle olny to get bombed into oblivion or have your hanger killed.

I guess that's why I feel no pity or a sense of "Oh well" when I hear someones flattened all the hangers in Fighter Town (when the map is up)
Of course you get to hear all the fighter guys whine about ruining "thier" fun by killing their hangers. I guess it goes back to "when someone pays my $15 I will do what pleases me"

Bombing spawn campers in a jabo is no different than relieving cap over your airfield. If your spawn is not being camped, then any kills you get would be somewhat more "random". If it's in the game & not "gaming" the game then live with it or whine to HTC to make TT "bombproof".

I think i'm hearing close air support didnt exist in ww2.....it did.

[bzek74]

Taking a heavy fighter to the furball over TT is cool with me, its trying to get more bang for the buck before you hop on someones 6. Seeing gvs getting wasted by lancs is a bit much...but if someone wants to take the risk of getting a low lanc into tt thats on them.

So long as theres a tt I think there will always be this debate soo this is all pretty moot. Lol after just 2 months of coming back to online flight sims I figured that out.

I never said you couldn't play your style when it pleases you, in fact I said the opposite.

Don't take part of what I said out of context & try to make it sound as if I was bashing you. When people get defensive like that, it betrays their ulterior motives.

[LYNX]

Brenjen.....

Didn't mean to give you the impression I had you outta context.  Just saying I ain't complaining about be complained at.

Had a good day in TT again mostly in the hurri but I was also bombed in a panzer by one of the guys I'd been camping.

No offence meant

 I get a kick outta questiong the manhood of those guys who cant get me on the ground in TT so they have to bring in ords to get me from a safe distance....

but simple solution for all you GVers who have a distate for those eggs.... leave oppostion ostis alone unless they begin firing on ground targets.
 I will not shoot any osti that is enagaging the TT eggheads even if they happen to my own countrymen getting shot down. A simple gentlemans agreement amongst the gvers would quickly make bringing ords to TT a dangerous game indeed!

So how bout it? Let's let the ostis clear the skies and we can continue the GV slaughter without those silly flyboys interference!

I bombed TT in a set of lancasters from 1k because I was REALLY pissed off at Bishop spawn-camping tactics. Killed 5 + guys, and monitered the 200 for an hour. Not a single person complained...

Also, I didnt do it because "I cant get him on the ground" I did it to piss of the maximum number of Bishops, with the minimum ammount of work. I know it pisses them off, which is exactly why I do it. I didnt bail right after though, I tried to fight my way home but lost to a Spxteen an La-7 and a Typhoon.

Edit
That was worded horribly, had to fix it.

Ive considered that, and finally decided that if I'm closer to MY triangle than I am to THEIR triangle, Im not campin;-- getting in a true camping position i.e. sneaking behind spawn, etc--assures that someone will egg you, or 4-5 panzers will hunt you down like a dog--the 3-4 kills ya MIGHT get doesn't warrant the eventual outcome, IMO

( I think the 3 spawns aren't but 2-3k apart tops)
