I went into midwar last night, Cap, looking for ya, took up my Hurri2c, with 50% and drops, there was only 35 peeps in there, so I fly towards a red dar, as I'm getting near the base I see a lower spit, so I drop my tanks, and then drop on him, instead of BnZ him I chopped all throttle, hard rudder to stay slow, he assumes I am staying fast. he pulls up I stay on him,I give out a short burst of my cannons, his right wing comes off. so I wep up start to climb, I look towards the nme base, he is rolling, I don't jump on him, I let him grab some ALt, at this point I bank my hurri to follow along side of him while he is grabbing ALT, we are about 5 k apart, I asked on open channel if he was ready, he says no, I look over at him and he is heading strait at me LOL, so I drop my nose to gain some speed, he tries to rope me I follow just enough to take a shot, miss, I roll back over, to make him think I am slow, he comes back down fast, I stay out in front of him so he can see my 6, he takes his shot misses, as he fires I pull strait up using hard rudder to avoid his shots, he passes me I roll inverted to see what he does, he banks hard right, I roll again so I am level, pull up again go inverted watching him, he is still trying to get up to me, I pull down on top of him, using hard rudder I get a gun solution, another quick burst takes off his wing.
I <S> him, no responce on open channel, but he PM me and says " let me get a little more ALT"
I type back something like "lol are serious I gave you like 7 k, then YOU engaged" so now I am headed back to my base low on fuel, at first I thought this guy was gonna be a jerk on pm, but he wasn't, so we started to type back and forth about the fight, and about the Hurri, I am back in the air headed towards his field again, I get to about 7k(?) typing back a response hit enter then look to my left, and low and behold a spitfire less than 1k away heading strait at my 9 o'clock, I instantly roll to my left and pull a split S, but not quite, I try to always go to the side that the NME has to red out to follow, as he tries to compensate for my dive he rolls heavy to his right, I again roll in his opposite direction, as we pass each other he takes his shot misses, I pull strait up, he tries to follow, I go inverted and pull a scissors on him, I think on the second pass I pull a gun solution and blasted him through his canopy, this time he explodes. I <S> him he <S> me back.
there was no one else around, it wa fun, but I am so used to flying in the MAs that I was still looking around for other NMEs the whole time
I think if I fly the MIDwar arenas to much, I will lose my SA, it just was not enough action, so I went back to LW arenas, and promply found a huge darbar, and went into heavy action, where I got killed repeatedly but also racked up a few killz.
ether way I think this game rocks and <S> all you who fly with Honor.
and <S> you Black70
