For some of us, the mode we fly in is largely dictated by the fact that we didn't realize until a day or two ago it was kept on a "per plane" basis, and would change when we changed plane without our realizing it.

lynx....some members of the rook score squads do....check the top fiter score dudes kills in/kills of....its not hard at night to hunt buffs especially if they occupied during drops....

come bish or knight a night bro and the scales will fall off your eyes =)


the other "technique" i have only seen out of one rook "elite squad" is flying multiple 262s/tempests into furballs where they have the higher darbars picking off occupied turners at the back edge of the fight....honestly who brings a 262 to an offensive situation except someone who is trying to pad k/d???


(btw im not talking about Shawk...he flies in numbers but in planes that are not uber...thats why i dont mind shawk...at least i have a CHANCE TO KILL HIM....but to kill 3 262s and tempests, i would have to recruit other bish players to up jets with me because they run back to base when you show up.  Also i dont really want to play jet combat in ww2
:D

My apologies to the to the BishKnits furballers.

~HellsAngels~ has removed the "Score quota" section from our Code of conduct and Training Handbook.

Darkstar, Jhook, 99mecinf, Joey04,and Rattler know understand that being elite does not equate score.

In the "Hanger" ... when you pick a plane, there are 2 buttons ... "Fighter" and "Attack".

Some planes do not offer "Fighter" so it will be disabled.

I have my planes set for the type of work that they do.

FM2 = Fighter
F6F = Attack

etc.

Those that were meant for attack F6f, P38, etc are set for attack. The ones I actually fight fiters with are set for fiter. OR the ones with 500-1000lb bombs attack the rest fiter.

I fly perked planes in fighter mode and regular planes in attack mode. I use it more for myself informationally, mostly to compare how I do in Tempest compared to Typhoon..I never carry ordnance but I do help strafe stuff for capture when in attack mode if need be...I don't vulch in either mode and I cherry pick with equal enthusiasm no matter which mode I'm in... ;)

Unless you count circling overhead above everyone in a Chog uber.*
One thing about Shawk, he is a darned good shot in a Chog.



* Unless he is in attack mode, then he'll jump in and deack.

Has nothing to do with score (Rank), other than getting credit for GV kills...for me atleast. My rides are set and almost never change.

109's - Fighter
110's - Attack
FW 190 A5 - Fighter
FW 190 A8 - Attack
FW 190 D9 - Fighter
Fw 190 F8 - Attack

Stukas, 88's, Komets and Swallows...are self explanatory.

Stats are awesome, I love stats, most do.  Where would Pro sports be without them?  Ranks are different though and are meaningless in this game.  Other than that...Who cares what people do??
