I have been on plenty when sapp runs missions and they are not announced the majority of the time.  And whether 30 fw 190s are trying to take a base or 30 p38s are light looking to furball...the "horde" analogy is the same.  the difference is most wouldnt be hypocritical enough to try to say one is cool and the other is bogus.


No, when we hold SAPP nights, we announce what area we are flying at and even mention what planes we are hunting for.

I also think you miss the gist of Dan's post, it was to show the absurdity of 20+ planes ganging one lone bandit.

DAMN ! if I was there yesterday at that time, and knew about that mission. I'd so took my La-7 or tempest buzz over and nail a few sitting duck 190s otd.

comments like "i was laughing so hard i just had to post em" typically mean "i got really pissed off they wouldnt play my way so im gonna try to insult them by saying i was laughing at them"....

the mission you have posted about were actually 50 190-a8s and i joined it just for the fun of flying in that large a number of fws...numbers were even and that mission rolled 5 bases one after the other with no resistance...there were 2 dar bars of nits attacking a more southern bish base....not sure why low 190s were not an appealing group to oppose....

i guess to some folks organization is "hording" and disorganization or an inability to get folks to respond to pleas for assistance get labelled as "the way it should be'



whats particularly hypocritical about guppy's post is that when s.a.p.p. sends 30 p38s en masse and gang bounce everything on the way...it is cool....i guess its not as fun when you have it come back the other way...

seriously dan...lighten up...this post and responses seem beneath you...this thread is a whine and poor attempt to bash other guys having Titanic Fun on Titanic Tuesday....and YES it was a hell of a lot of FUN...

try this...you play your way and they can play their way...i guess wrecking cartoon planes and posting them incessantly may not be what the majority of folks who play the game see as a goal...they may prefer mastering them and keeping them intact...unless they just need a bunch of attention.... :uhoh
bwahahahahahahahahaha in the center of the flock as usual no doubt.  when dan posted his piece I thought that his screen shot was reminiscint of a BoP mission but decided not to go there as it really is none of my business and it in no way affects me.  I do however derive great comidic value from this post of yours and I thank you for posting it.  don't go changing to try to please me.  :rofl

I think Dan was laughing at the whole situation here. First it WAS pretty silly to be diving in on 30 planes with just one wingman. Second it WAS pretty silly that all those planes had such a hard time taking down only 2 P38... having all those cannons and all. Had it been and organised mission run properly, 4 planes would have been assigned to finish off the 2 38's and the rest would have continued on to the target of choice. Being the "horde" it truly was they ALL attacked with their cartoon pilots yelling "Mine, Mine, Mine" !! Which when you think about it is pretty funny too.

Falc, you seem a bit over sensitive to any one commenting on a large group of planes. The horde is what it is, and most missions are hordes. When you use brute force to accomplish you objective, you are leading a horde, plain and simple. When you break up that horde into elements and use strategy to complete your objectives then you are a mission planner. Your group likes to use brute force, more power to ya, its the way you like to play. Dan likes diving into a mess and laugh about the sillyness of the fight.

I was going to say Alliance but they're bishops... probably a GHI mission?
It was a falcon23 mission and he told me over 50 joined.

we (RT) have been doing quite a few "oddball" missions latley..  just for the fun of it, base caps are our forte but its fun to do something silly once in a while, especially when your have a well known CO like Falcon who can pull huge numbers for missions.
for example the other day we did a JU87 raid, the goal of the raid was pretty much to laugh at each other getting shot down and not much else.  Half way to our target we get spotted as we knew we would, by a lone P38..
but things got a little crazy..  the 38 made his first a little slow and ended up under us.  he immediatly had a huge gaggle of pissed off stukas after him and found himself peashootered to death..

but of course like any good stuka mission the mortality rate was almost 100%, i think 1 guy made it back (shiv)  with 2 air to air victories... in a stuka.

I was in that mission with falcon23.  As remember, we had just taken a base and decided to drop the CV.  Don't know why you gotta diss the horde.  It was a lot of fun seeing almost 50 190As dropping on a CV.  How many time do you see that?   :salute falcon23  great mission as yours always are.

ack-ack

I can attest to this ... I then take note of how far away I can takeoff and avoid the gangtard ...weird flopping around... strange looking ...P38 (letter) BNZ... winging.... bastages...that always seem to jump me instead of all the other ijots ( insert wrag) that are flying around me....even when I pm guppy that wrag is in the 109...oooops... when wrag somehow seems to get targeted first.... there is still the 38 that doesn't listen to his squadie and jumps me too as i run like a dog.... oooops... extend away to get alt....
All good fun Guppy , ack-ack,,,et al....

Without getting defensive, perhaps you should reread Dan's post again.

I believe the word you are looking for is "thenthitive".

thenthitive: having acute mental or emotional thenthibility; aware of and rethponthive to the feelingth of otherth.
eathily pained, annoyed, etc. ; requiring tact or caution; delicate; touchy.
