10 Joys in Aces high II

[sethipus]

I fly 234's 90% of the time I'm in buffs.  I've only ever been chased by 262's twice.  One I killed and the other time I smoked his engine, he couldn't keep up with me anymore and broke off.

Muahahahahahaha!

I got killed in a 262 by a guy in a single 234 last month.  I got some hits on him but failed to break anything important.  He was flying that thing like a wildman, and eventually I got into a great position and was lobbing some taters up into him and drifted up into his six, where he had tracers off (apparently, as I didnt' see any) and hit me with his tailgun 20s.  It was a great fight, actually, and I didn't feel too bad about losing the 262.  In separate actions last month I did kill nine other AR234s.  I guess I haven't been fortunate enough to run into you.  ;-)

Hitting a plane with so many hispano rounds all that is left is the fuselage with nothing else.

Ripping apart a conga line on a friendly.

Flying w/ POTW

Getting killed repeatedly by Kappa

Getting killed repeatedly by members of the 80th FS 5 minutes after they were just clearing your six

Flying anyone into the ground

Going in to dive bomb a VH and forgetting to arm the bombs

Wrecking every perk plane I fly

Watching N1K2Js on fire still shooting at me

Watching troops run over trees and buildings when you take a town

Busting up a Vulch fest on an air base just using the manned ack. Nothing sweeter taking down the entire hoard of Vultures. Or hitting bombers at 13000 feet with manned ack & watch them start firing from rear guns & nothing is there for them to shoot at.

And how much lead do you need to have for that?

And how much lead do you need to have for that?

Cant describe it.  It is for the most part just a gut feel as to where I need to fire & watch where my tracers are going & adjust accordingly. For the most part high bombers that are coming toward me I take one look as to the direction they are going & I don't see them again until they are over me or past me. If i was to guess better that half a screen or more.

10. A knife fight that leaves my heart racing a little faster and my hands shaking a little bit from bending the stick along with wondering how I survived.

I like hitting RATOs in 234s and accelerating out of trouble. Thats why I never take off using them.

Just a few weeks ago I was in on a heavily contested field at 10k in a formation of 234s. I dropped and noticed a 190 coming in with about 6k on me. I timed it perfect, hit RATOs, turned gently, and went into a shallow dive. Its amazing how fast those 234s can get when flown like that.

Anyway I took a few thumps but was able to land all 3 safely.

I guess another joy is getting kills in a P-38. I simply love that airplane.
