first of all i NEVER STEAL KILLS (ask anyone)

second  of all if you blow off the wing you should get the kill if the 37mm hits it head on and it has onlu slight damage so it is fair.

Just because you think you did the most visable damage doesn't mean the guy that attacked the bandit prior to you didn't.  He may have wounded the pilot in the bandit plane or removed a flight surface or two.  Just because you remove a wing doesn't guarantee you the kill.

Here's my advice...stop trying to steal other people's kills and stop ganging, otherwise get used to getting assists instead of kills.

look i don't steal kills. ask anyone. but if a freindly gives a spitty a pw he can still fly BUT if a 37mm hits anywhere it is gonna kill anything except maybe a bomber.

If the Spitfire wounded the pilot and then you come along and try to pick the bandit and remove its wing with a 37mm burst, the Spitfire will still walk away with the kill because he wounded the pilot.  The damage to the vital areas was already done by the time you came along.

Nobody's asked the obvious yet: Was he firing his MG as well? Which gun was hitting, doing the damage? You land 5 12.7mm hit sprites on a wingtip it'll take it off, but the 50 from the guy before you did more damage.

Probably a stupid question, but in this case it helps to rule out the obvious.

Nothing more I can add here that really hasn't already been said by others.  But I'll try to not be as blunt as the others.


While you hit his wing with 1-3 37mm rounds, it is very possible that someone else hit his same wing (or his entire plane) with ~50-100 .50cal rounds.


If you are complaining about not getting kills on leftovers limping home, you should go for some fresher meat next time to satisfy your "hunger".

The player who does the most damage gets the kill. There's nothing wrong with the 37mm.
