This made me laugh tonite....my 1 V 23 fight
« on: June 18, 2008, 02:47:00 AM »
As usual we were up looking for the biggest dar bar tonite.  Typically if you showed any resistance the horde moved.

On this occasion I got up early when another large dar bar showed up.  As I headed out with Stogey trailing me out, we saw the mob. 


At that point it was about a 2 vs 30, but what the heck, planes are free so in we go twisting and turning in the mass.  Stogey starts laughing and comments that all you have to do is pull the trigger and you hit something.


They are not happy with us and the fight goes on for a bit, twisting and turning on the deck trying to avoid the horde.  Slowly they are knocking pieces off and finally an engine and then the elevators.  I'm so low and slow at this point that I hit the water and don't blow up, ending up with the ditch instead.  38G kill denied!

My comment on 200 was it was just sad that 25 190s couldn't kill 1 P38G.  I'd like to apologize for that comment.  After reviewing the film, I discovered it was only 23 190s.  I'm sorry for exaggerating :)

It's been said we have three brains, one cobbled on top of the next. The stem is first, the reptilian brain; then the mammalian cerebellum; finally the over developed cerebral cortex.  They don't work together in awfully good harmony - hence ax murders, mobs, and socialism.

I find it's better to attack 100 planes than 5, cause if it's 100 they'll have the lazy gang mentality.. they'll be like "eh, someone else will take care of him"  then after killing 99 of them the last guy will get pissed off and kill you.. true story!! :noid :devil

the nice thing about fighting that many is, the odds are good that someone will killshoot themselves and therefore giving you a free kill.

Could happen

i find it's better to attack 100 rather than 5 because i just die much more quickly, thusly ending the agony more quickly too :aok :rofl

Great job, Guppy. Any movie to show? I'm sure that'd be entertaining! :)

I found that same forde last night. I was in a 190A8 about 8k above them. I managed to kill 2 and wound 7 or 8 before running low on gas and ammo and RTBing. I was thinking that i need to make a T-Shirt that says "I Survived the Horde". :rock

The funniest thing is that one of them is probably posting in this very thread acting like it wasn't him.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.
