A new submission!

I made the film, but I am not the shootist. This particular expert happens to be PaintMAW (he said I could post this). I was watching because I wanted to make sure someone was going to get the chute. Paint did a stellar job! And the whining is superb

I'll give the whine an 8.6

Here's a nice film showing Sling and me using wingman tactics to make sure the chute doesn't get the advantage on one of us.

I like em so far, but what they're missing (mine included) is a true risk in getting the chute. Show me a film of a guy diving through a sea of red icons for that evil, despicable, silk laden menace, and he'll have my vote.

Is that film last nite over A10 SOB? There were quite a few cons in the area at the time if it was.

That doesnt count Fatty?

Nope. You need at least 2 closing on your 6 that you completely ignore to kill the true enemy.

Yup, it's over A10. Fatty's right, there weren't nearly enough cons there to warrant any praise.

The best situation for what he's speaking of arises when you fly in on the tail end of an assault only to find all of your country mates dead and you faced with a sky full of defenders. If you're lucky, your force downed a few that are still in the silk. That's when it's time to completely ignore and amaze your soon-to-be-killers by going after their helpless country mates floating slowly to the ground.

Damn...I will have to review my film of the incident in question then. I guess I only had 1 con closing on me at the time.
