Last night...

[Mister Fork]

Last night while I was flying, my wife came over to see what the commotion was about - the screen was looking like I was flying through a black fog bank, with loud sounds of flak impacts, the odd crash of something breaking.  We had an interesting conversation that sounded like a Gilmore girls episode.

"What's all those black little clouds?" she asked

"Black death - flak" I replied

"You know, that plane was probably flown by 19-20 year olds who were scared out of their wits."

"Japs" I replied

"Fine, Japanese boys. Is the terror any different?"

"It's all about immersion" I replied

I hopped into the bomb site to re-calibrate before my drop.

"What's this?"

"bombsite" (calibrating)

"are those the carriers?"

"Yep"   At this point, my lead bomber explodes (it must of been on fire) and I'm suddenly in the next plane.  You can see my former lead plane exploding with wing parts and other debris raining on the plane.  Loud bangs can be heard.

"Did you just blow up?"

"My lead bomber did"  - back into the gun-sight..  Background is just crazy as the plane is being shaken like a toddler with a bug in a jar.  I'm trying to calibrate but I just can't get a view because of the flak.

"Why are you diving?"

"Change of plans."

"Are you commiewazine..um... what do you call it?"

"Kamikaze - maybe. I can't get a clear shot of calibrate my bombsite. So we're now dive bombing."

Now, all the ships in the CV group have opened up their lazer cannons on me, suddently, my right bomber explodes, in the message bar, states 1Duke1 shot me down for the second time.  Ruh roh - dukie's in the 5 inch.  The first was no accidental flak death.  I should of been paying closer attention to the message bar

"Crap"

"What?"

"Dukes in the 5 inch."

"Who?"

"Duke" - I hear a loud smack from a 5" impact and switch to external view

"your plane is missing part of your tail"

"I know" another smack and I bring up the damage list

"a lof of your systems are red. Is that bad?"

"Yes"

"Is this a now a Kamakzie dive?"

"Yes"

"Are those young boys in your plane going to die?"

"What?" - now I'm in a full fledged non-stop dive.  I can hear the wings creaking.

"You know, the japanese boys flying your bomber?  Oh, there goes a wing"

"I know"

"You're plane is falling apart"

"I know" - another smack from the 5".

"your plane is on fire"

"I know" - I'm off target and I know that I'm never going to hit with around 1500 feet left. I eject"

"Did you get thrown out of your plane?"

"No, I ejected"

"Like that?"

"Like that."

"Wow, that ship is big."

"Its an aircraft carrier."

"The one you were trying to bomb?"

"The one"

"So what do you do now?"

"Swim for home."

"You're funny.  This game is boring.  Oh look, is the carrier going to run you over?"

"Yep"

"I'm off to read a book.  Enjoy the carrier being imprinted on your forehead"



Isn't this game AWESOME when our better half's nag us while we play?

[potsNpans]

Men, you must at once arrest this belligerent female behavior and uphold on behalf of masculine brotherhood our honor. Sarcasm such as this is a smoldering wildfire! May the Gods be with you

We have been having fun, fighting with you guys! 

We are predominantly a training squadron so most of our people are new, very new, or extremely new.  As a training squad we do all kinds of different operations to introduce our players to all aspects of AH.  Most of the time you will find us in some sort of air ops. where we focus on "Wingman Tactics". 

We realize each of the arena's develop their own following of players, "kind of a place where you feel most comfortable".  But, because we move around a lot (to get the most broad look at the game as possible), we get to know a wider segment of the game and gammers.   

As the CO of 2d~Amendment, I apologize if some are offended by our entry in-mass into AvA.  We are using it to practice tactics of all types (including formations, base takes...).  With very few exceptions, we appreciate the competition you guys have been giving and it has been great to give our members an introduction to some different flying tactics and techniques you guys have developed.

We look forward to competing with and against you.   I hope bad blood does not develop because of our actions.  If you have a specific problem with me or one of our members go to our web page www.2damendment.com and email me directly.  I will promise to look into the situation and take action if warranted.
