My squaddie Tec has excellent comedic timing; and the invisible 51

[Steve]

Setup: A rook-nit furball last night between A73 and A74. My squaddies Bipolar(I call him Bip on vox) and Tec are nit, I am rook. We sometimes avoid shooting each other if there are other targets. I arrive at the furball at what had before been quite low, 5k. Everyone is on the deck this time.  I kill one guy and then notice that I seem invisible to the nits; nobody has reacted to my presence. There are several bad guys in the area so I ask my Bip where he is.(I didn't, at the beginning, know Tec was nit) Listen to Vox but watch text. I laughed heartily. I hope you find it funny. Film is 2 minutes,  23 sec long.(1.5 megs)                   

Warning: the film has vox and there are 2 F-bombs in it(not in anger)

You approach it a bit different then me. I always go split S, chop throttle and attack from almost straight up. I went and look at some of my old BnZ film. Since I kinda stop playing the game and haven't bnz often when i do decide to log on and fly a few sortie, nothing is recent.

But the different is I always come in 1-2k higher on their 4-7 high so they have a hard time tracking my plane, that w/ the speed build up from the dive, I usually only have a few a sec to fire before breaking it off. Good thing my aiming is good though =)

Hehehe. You missed the whole point of the post.

I can't believe you'd ask your squaddies to identify themselves so that you don't shoot them down. Fratricide is fun!

You're so right. Once in a while, like I said,  we avoid it.  I have 6 kills on my squad this tour.

I CAN't watch the film till i get home, but i do have a quick question though?

where is 5k considered low?

the HG do that too.....they look for the squad emblems though, so no one knows they're doing it.

The fight had been between 10-15k.  Don't you think 5k would be considered a bit low ?

welll.....if the fight was up there, but most of us in mw tend to fight low(by your definition) last night i was at 21k, as i was forced to go that high to avoid being bnz'd. normally fight in the weeds, or on the wavetops if it;s a cv/coastal base furball.

Whatever.  I've spent time in the MW and found that there are plenty of alt monks there as well.

My squaddie shot me down last night while I was in a 262 and he was in a 38.  I didn't even know anyone else from my squad was on.  It was a great shot at a very difficult angle.  So much so, I thought I was safe and he didn't have the shot, then off comes my tail feathers.  I was so proud when I saw who it was.  Best 200 perks I've ever spent.  TeeeeHeeeee  WTG Waster07

i've had that happen......where i think i make an angle that's impossible for you to get a shot at me......but then suddenly big important things fall off my plane.

Or even worse, the pingless death

i don't think i've had that happen yet. i always hear something, as i get hit.

last night, i had a hurri2 drop on me from outer space, as i was tring to set up to land with only a minute or so of fuel....i was concentrating on a spit that was loitering around, but lined up anyway, and gave one final glance 'round......just in time to see the hurri2 my 6 hi, cannons blazing...ping bam boom tower
