I think BJ is something of a stalker, he continually brings up my name on these posts.  I haven't even played in 2 months yet to hear him rant I'm the bane of his existence.  (Did I ruin your fun?  :cry)

Besides which, this thread is about whether or not FH's should be dropped, not the capture of tank town dude.  :lol 









Nice 'non-answer', worthy of a white house spokesman--(btw, this topic morphed into griefers vs furballers many..many pages ago ;)

The point i'm trying to make is furballing in itself is a type of game play, just as base taking or war winning is.


Furballing doesn't dictate gameplay to others.

I really don't think people set out to ruin a fight by taking out the FHs unless they want to take the base.

You obviously haven't been following this thread or at least the information herein hasn't sunk in. I will not discuss it further with you until you are informed.

Never ceases to amaze how less than 10% of the community population can make the most noise...stop your squeaking.

Simple matter of fact...you want to furball or dogfight between/over 2 bases, you're more than welcome to. If someone with a mission in their heads wants to come along and take one of those bases out from under you or tool sheds a base and it spoils your "fun time", too bad nobody cares about your perk points, poop happens. If you're that good, find another base to up from and grab a drop tank so you don't have to worry about fuel.
Talk about courtesy, in case some of the bigger squeakers here didn't notice there are more people trying to take bases in both late war MA's than there are furballers. Your furball is interfering with someones strategic plans, but they haven't come in here and started a whine thread about it.



No disresect to Guppy and those who wing with him.

Most people in a furball couldn't care less about score/perks/win the war. They just want to have fights/fun <---- these mean the same thing to a furballer. Does it bother you so much that there are 30-60 people having fun while your "working" on taking another base?

It does because they're selfish.

i think it does.

 the armchair cartoon generals, think that because they "took command" of a mishun, that makes them the leader of their chesspiece army air force.
 hence, since they're now appointed themselves as the cartoon general of rookland/knightland/bishland, all of the chesspiece army air force must follow their orders, or be publicaly ridiculed, and whipped repeatedly with a wet linguini noodle.

Well I'm new to Aces High and everyone will probably love my answer :furious.  In an operation order there is what is known as commanders intent.  That might be a simple as destroying fuel and munitions at an airfield to ground the fighter opposition.  Now if you can't hit all the fuel and ammo points you can not fulfill the commanders intent.  Now If I bomb the 2 fighter hangers it accomplishes the commanders intent because it neutralizes the fighter opposition in the area.  Different target same results.

As stated in an earlier entry i can not say how many times I have been inbound to a target and can not get anyone to answer my request for information.  If I can not get the needed information then I am going to hit what I perceive as a primary target.  Yes fighter hangers.

Just remember these arenas encompass all AH members young, old, gamers and Sim addicts.  Everyone pays the same to partake.  If you don't like it go to special events, another area on the map or just leave because I don't want to hear your self centered dribble.  See you in the friendly skies and have a nice day.

it's not a war, but rather a sim/game.

if you REALLY feel the need to drop hangars, or ords, or whatever, you have over 30 bases to choose from./

So anything goes.  I can announce your bombers are coming to the other side then?  Talk about a selfish approach to the game. 

And this isn't war.  The second we start really dying, you can use that argument.  Until then it won't work.

Interesting point.  In real life the pilots dreaded flying and died in droves.  I saw an interview where an old WW2 pilot said flying was analogous to riding the bumper cars at the county fair;  Rickety, cheap and unpredictable, but adding 500 gallons of gasoline into the mix.  I doubt there was ever a discussion of 'you stolt my kill' and now it won't say I landed 2 kills!

UPTOWN has it correct above.  There isn't some conspiricy out there to ruin other's fun.  My guess is bomber or fighter guys just drop FH to see them go KABLOOOWEEE!!! 

Quit your whining, you know who you are.
