What about the "fool" who predicts your prediction, pulls a guns defense, takes lead on you as you blow by him with all your smash, and blows you out of the sky?

Option 1:
Do nothing but HO.  Pick all the great HO planes and do absolutely nothing but HO people the entire tour.  If I come in on your 6, I will wait until I can get around on you and HO.  

Option 2:
Be a dweeb...  Ho, vulch, pick.  Never engage unless I can do one of those three or start with an 8k alt advantage where I can zoom in attempt to kill in one pass and get the heck outta dodge.

Option 3:
Be a dedicated milkrunner.  Do nothing but up heavies to hit undefending strat target.  Or demolish fighter hangers from 30k at any furball island/fighter town and do the same to V-hangers at tank towns.

Option 4:
Armchair General.  Go to the most heavily contested base get on VOX and do nothing but shout the most pointless, counterproductive orders possible.


sounds like AXER he get another account?

Besides, if the Energy Fighters (aka Alt Monkeys) are such dweebs, why not take say, a {insert uber plane of choice} up to 25k, and get a boatload of easy kills ???

Because the only excitement from trying that comes from trying to guess how many sectors they will run before they try to hide in the ack somewhere.

I've been one of those on-again-off again guys.  Played back at AH1 2003-2004.  Played again around end of 2005-early 2006.  Just started back up again in March.  Gotta take life as it comes, sometimes there are more pressing issues in life than being the cartoon fighter ace.


And this post was meant as a joke.  I assumed the vast majority here would grasp that.

I reality, I believe I am going to attempt an entire tour flying nothing but Japanese aircraft (exception being C-47's, but I will sport the Japanese skin when I'm in it).  The only down side to that is they  don't have a heavy ord attacker.
