easiest way to clean out almost any in bound horde mission is to call any available Muppets into the fight.

i would say its a safe bet to estimate an over 80% success rate at turning around a fight and sticking it up the arses of the invaders.

i  say this as to promote the Muppets.

Hey Lynx,

Dis`pro*por"tion*ate\, a. Not proportioned; unsymmetrical; unsuitable to something else in bulk, form, value, or extent; out of proportion; inadequate; as, in a perfect body none of the limbs are disproportionate; it is wisdom not to undertake a work disproportionate means.

The fact of the matter is that it really doesn't matter if it's 3 or 30 going as a group or alone it's about having fun, which is the point.And Thundregg does some FUN missions, which keeps the game worth playing. Which, again was my point. Lynx stick to choking on Furballs ya big PUSSIcat and enjoy the game no matter how you think it should be played. And if your bad bellybutton enough to take a base with a goon strapped to a heavy 51 and a .45 then all the power to ya! It's all about having a good time whether it be DISPROPORTIONATE or NOT, it's a game how ya play it is open to interpretation............... .............. :rolleyes:


Hey!... Here's an idea.  Bear with me I know its a little brash and perhaps a little daring but why don't we all have some fun.   :uhoh

Your not quite getting this disproportionate thing are you.  I'll tell you something I don't see where the fun is being one of 20+ guys hitting a port that has exactly 1 VH and 8 acks.  What did the last 18 guys do when they got there ?  What was the fun challenge for them ?  Seeing part of the map change a different colour ?  If it's all about eliminating the risk have Thundregg host a LAN and you lot can whiz round all the ports on your own having FUN  :rolleyes:

Greetings<S>.  I believe a lot of people join missions of any size to be part of a team or some focused effort than just flying around being fodder.  Some missions are more popular than others.  Some missions are scratched for nobody joining, sometimes its 20+.  It doesnt matter if you take the base or not, a team effort was made.  There are no AcesHigh generals to dictate what is appropriate, so there are just a bunch of guys teaming up.  Questioning or wondering why these large missions happen seem naive.  See ya out there.

I guess it's about time it was my turn to be anonymously shot at on this BBS. In the past it's been Ghi, Falcon23, Falcnwng,.. anyone I'm forgetting?

No, LYNX. I am not leaving your sandbox. As I don't play this game very much during the week, you don't have much to worry about. Buck up.

easiest way to clean out almost any in bound horde mission is to call any available Muppets into the fight.
so i say bring on your hordes, check the roster and see where the Muppets are flying and then be brave and announce your mission to us. if you are really brave you can always make it a personal challenge on 200, i dont really see us turning you down.
:rofl One good horde deserves another..... I can see it now,, {chime in the Benny Hill theme song}.. sirens going off and a voice cracks over the loudspeaker,,,, Calling all Muppets, Calling all Muppets, your asssistance is needed at A23, A58, A74, ,,,,,  :lol

you say you wanna fight not just to take undefended bases, well then i say prove it and give forewarning and advanced notice of your intentions on 200 and then give the defenders enough time to get in the air and gain some alt to meet you. telling them after you have already put down the ack and the hangers is just as lame as mounting a 50 man noe mission against an undefended vb.
 

This has already been done, I dare say that it was almost a weeks notice, is that not enough time to get alt....?   :rofl

dont brag about it cause you just sound like a dweeb to the rest of us that play the game for the purpose of engaging others in combat.

so you infer that 10 Muppets would constitute a horde when engaging 20, 30 or more enemies? well i guess i could agree with that statement, if instead of viewing it in terms of weight of numbers you view it in skill level of ACM. then yes 10 or hell even 5 (i exclude myself from those numbers as i am so bad i should be one of the hordlings) Muppets would constitute an unfair horde type advantage when compared with the overall skill of most of the 20 man "undefended base jumpers" taken as a group.

and as far as giving a weeks notice, well that should do nicely providing our schedules allow for us to be on.

as a foot note, a hurri 1 mission in the late war arena's, no matter how many there are, would never constitute an unfair horde raid in my opinion. when you intentionally take a plane with so many disadvantages against enemy forces that can fly anything they want then that type of mission can only be being flown for the fun of it, so <SALUTE> Thunder wish i had been on to oppose it, i would definitely have upped a 109e to defend with.
