So all you had to do was kill the a couple of m3s and no more bothered you for how long

Yes that is true, after porking troops there was no more M3 threat from the land side and the couple of M3's were handled easily enough. Knits did try running goons (fair enough), and it was a heck of a air battle too, lots of fun I thought.

But had to go to bed, woke up to find airbases taken back. (quite possibly they did a raid and took it with goons for all I know) I just suspect that rooks forgot to pork TT vbases and the M3's started rolling...dunno.

The responsibility to remember to pork the vbase of troops rests on the shoulders of the team 'allowing' the enemy vbase to remain. Unfortunately it is not the vbase teams responsibility to remember 'not to run m3's'

For that reason it really doesn't work. I think I'll just pork the vbase when I am on, try running captures outward, then realize they'll just take it back....you know, to be a good guy.

Well the whole thing that was erking me this weekend was while I was in a panzer in TT ( half the weekend ) I was getting egged by leet uber pilots like 767858 and his buddy 2341234. I understand that aside from this being a game its a business but having some of the hardcore players be bomb fodder for a 2 week warrior is kinda BS.

Also I notice alot of the score potatos use TT as a excuse to pad thier scores. I have total respect for someone I know that gave the effect to get on the ground and try to up from the spawn and trade rounds. But when I see people bragging about thier scores after just nuking 50 tanks in a hour, and then 30 mins later crying about some alt monkey picking them over TT...got no respect for people like that.

Then to top it off to zapping a score leech in TT and having them send you nasty messages for a hr calling you a cheat and yadda yadda, If being a good tank shots a cheat Im guilty as charged but as far as being the tiger in town doing 900 through buildings...1 I dont use Tigers and 2. I never camp the town. Some people need to grow up and just have fun.

Ok before I get even more off topic ill zip it.

Even before the Bish lost thier airfield they were dropping the nits tt every 30 mins, with nits leaving thiers totally alone.

Anyways for once the rooks taking a tt airbase wasnt to torment a country but the swift hand of justice.

Of course! Only the bish bomb TT!

Btw, if you're just going to sit there out in the open and spawncamp, you deserve to be eggfodder for the clueless noobs. What an incredibly silly whine.

You could be covered in grass hidden away from the spawn with a decoy tank 30 feet away, and in trees ...Its not saving you from a carpet bombing lanc. Well from what I saw after Rooks took Bish airfield yeah for this weekend anyways Bish were the ones taking heavy bombers over TT.
Nits arent saints either but I can speak for myself and and some of my squad in saying when we see a bomber formation upping in TT direction we pretty much tell em how wrong they are....once again its your 15 bucks...and your reputation so people can play as they want.

And yes I have bombed gvs but from a fighter with the intention of fighting to earn my kills and rtb. Half the guys that bomb gvs dont have that intention of returning home they just wanna bomb gvs....once again your 15 bucks.

I never rant after being just egged I just let it build up untill I speak my mind....and Furboll if your so secure in saying this was a "silly whine" then lets do this same as TT. You find your spot I'll up a fighter and scout you out and since I totally suck at bombing I'll get someone with good aim to execute the drop. Any bets your back in the tower?...Btw this would be in a panzer or t34 like the majority of the guys in TT.

I would imagine, judging from both past experience, and the way the game is setup, that my tanks explode just like any others. I fail to see how that lends any credibility to your, "But I'm a spawncamper; they shouldn't be able to bomb me" stance.

Would you feel any pity for vulchers who whine about getting taken down by ostwinds?

You guys are both kinda off track here.

This post is to try to find a solution (assuming HTC even thinks anything is wrong) with the TT system.

This isn't really to discuss the merits or drawbacks to people upping heavy bombers and going to TT to blast GV's

I agree campers should be bombed, but not in a suicidal fashion. Example being Shawk picked me at the spawn lastnight...I upped a heavy typhoon right away because I know hes low risk guy so he was dug in pretty good. I went with the intention of pinpoint bombing him.

I get over TT and I see a tiger in a good spot aimed at nit spawn orbited by m3's I knew it was him..drop my eggs lousy drop so I go into kill his support...He used his ground attack and spawned a hill right in front of me..Blam he gets the proxy I call it a night.

Point of the story is SHawk has strange and wonderful powers of terrian manipulation...on the serious side. I ID'ed the camper and went for the kill I didnt aim for the largest cluster of guys...Which I have done before when I have seen them dug in. This weekend bombers were orbiting the spawn itself looking for easy kills.

On the ground its alot harder than people think. You up your gv, hope your not camped, cross the terrain and hope thats not camped find your spot AND hope thats not camped finally defend it. In the meantime a guy named 2wknewb is trying to egg you and you havent even officially obtained camper status.

Alot of these guys dropping eggs dont even gv, once again your 15 bucks. I personally have more respect for the guy who I blasted once and then egges me...He earned that right in my book and I had it coming.

I think it would make the island more like the rest of the areas on the map, and possibly make more bomber pilots go there to kill tanks than the few who do it now.

I logged on last night just as the north TT airfield was captured. I think it was the bish one. Then nothing! None of the other bases on the islands to the northwest or northeast were taken. Seems someone just wanted to prevent bish fighters from enjoying a quick hop to the furball over TT! It probably wasn't Dredger though, as he has stated he is not a griefer!:rolleyes:

Actually we killed all the Rook ord around A43 for 100 miles and brought a CV in.

Which brings up the so called excuse, erm reason given for taken A43 -

To stop egging in TT, well why not just pork the ord.

Was funny how once we got back A43 and V44 how Rooks were suddenly saying don't take V23 (Rook TT base) it spoils it.

My own personal view on TT -
Bases (both airfields and vbases) should be left alone (apart form regular ord porking) until required for a reset.

But thats leaves the problem about what happens if the closest airfield A4 for e.g. is taken.

It was the bish airfield A43 and it was me that organized its capture. I was also the first one to say leave the gv base alone except pork it of troops so GV guys could have their fun.

ccloughh also organized a mission to take the base to the NW, but it failed unfortunately. Then it was time to go to bed, funtime over.

This didn't stop anyone from enjoying 'the furball' though, it just moved the furball north of A43 (an even shorter distance?) And also, it seems Skyrock that you are equating taking bases with 'griefing', and it's just part of the game.

To stop egging in TT, well why not just pork the ord.

That isn't the reason, I could care less what gets egged at TT or who takes suicide lancs to do so.

I like the TT airbase because it opens up the options. It adds one more base the enemy has to pork, and adds to the possible directions you can attack from, and the number of bases you can attack as well. It makes sense both tactically and strategically.

But thats leaves the problem about what happens if the closest airfield A4 for e.g. is taken

I don't understand what is meant by this statement (not being sarcastic)

As I stated in my earlier post.
HTC will never change TT.. If you can't defend it your going to loose it.
IMHO I don't believe HTC thinks there is any thing wrong with TT. It will remain as it is, a part of the overall strategy for one country to "Win the Map"

again, just my 2 centavos

maybe....I've not heard either way from the horses mouth so to speak.

I do tend to agree with you though.

I am very aware you were on Friday night 4XTCH. In your opinion, was it a foolish move on Rooks part NOT to take the TT vehicle base when we had the advantage of the airfields? (It is very easy to do, once you have the cooresponding airfield)
