I destroyed two town buildings today and was awarded .2 perk points.  I thought I should get more because those buildings fought hard.

Hang in there keep your mouth shut and put some time in.  These guys dont want to hear what you have to say right now.  You'll be allright you have the right intensity its just misdirected for now.

last night we got word of a large flight of b17's attacking a base. i upped a hurricane mark2  6 others were defending the base. being in a slow hurri with a small amount of ammo, i had one choice hit the bombers head on do as much damage in one pass and head for home. result 2 b17's destroyed and 2 assists.
Just me, but i would have upped a 110 with rockets. Climbs faster i believe, not positive, better gun package, and if you live through the HO you could have swung around and done a rocket run on em. Or even fired your rockets at the HO merge, but i never seem to have much luck from the front with rockets. Heck ya could have even left the rockets off and still got at least 3 or more if you planned your HO merge right. Just my opinion on how i would have done it. Heck ya got 2 and 2 assists with a hurri that ain't bad at all. :salute

valdals lets us know when you run into one and shot the whole flight down then make a nice movie about it then we will care. Otherwise most here have done this time and time again.

Last night I dove from 15k to this goon on the deck. I got to 600 out and lit him up with my dora. Only thing he tried to do was run. So I got on 200 and called him a coward noob.

I think that deserves an attaboy!

Poor Valdals!
