Porker Generals Strut Their Stuff!

[Flayed]

lol you can pay your 15 bucks... but if your play is gamey don't complain when you hear about it. BTW as far as I'm concerned you can keep you 15.... you add nothing to the game.

   And you add nothing to the game either sir, I find your style of play just as boring and gamy as you find mine so it would seem we are at an impasse..  I bomb strat and enjoy the fight to and from my target and you up a plane and get a kill or are killed.  Well unless you are in a ship gun landing 26 kills like you did last night.

  I would tell you to keep your $15 as well but that might derive me of the pleasure of killing you in my 26's some day.

The holidays are blessed with its new season of AH BBS drama...

Porking, dirt farming, tool shedding, land grabbing, or whatever, leads to fights.  No air combat would have ever occurred in real life if it had not been for the need to deny the enemy access to the sky for reconnaissance, ground attack, ship attacks, strategic bombing, and all those other activities beneath the 'purists.'

.

Ruf, I have no qualms about any of that and I don't interfere with how others want to have fun in the game, with the exception of those I shoot at. Quite recently, I got in a debate with a couple of guys who said I don't care about my team because I don't help take bases. etc.  My point is, the armchair generals are pretty annoying... although I confess sometimes they are so rediculous that they are funny.

For all the bravado on these BBs every time I enter the game, somewhere on the map, there's a hoard attacking a base unopposed.  Lately I've been upping at those bases like I used to in the old days.  I continually wonder where all the guys who "love red dar bars" are.

Oh... wait... they only love red dar bars if there's also a green dar bar.

I mentioned darbars.. are you referring to me?

Have no problem with the idea of attacking objects in and of itself, but "Porking" and "hangar banging" as they are generally known do not greatly resemble historical missions.

Tell me where in WWII you could deny the enemy bombs by sending one suicide 190 or La7 over on the deck to strafe a few buildings...

That generally leaves tank and cv killing as the realistic options for attack planes.

The new strat system was designed to give buffs something realistic to do, but will probably not see great success in that regard.

[Warchief]

Toolshedders, Furballers, and porkers are all connected you cant have one with out the others plain and simple. Toolsheeders keep the strat down so your bases dont get overwhelmed. Porkers pork the enemy fields so they dont drop your hangars so tyhe furball keeps going. And furballers keep enemy pilots busy not rollin like a steam roller.

For all those crying about porkers IE the guy who started this you remind me of those who love the furball but as soon as there precious FH are dropped are the first to whine about no one taking out the strat at a field to make sure that doesnt happen.

And Yes I do porking, toolshedding, and occasionally Furballin just depends on what I am the mood to do at that time.

OK I read the inital commments and I see two sides evident. Those whose sole msision is to engage in air to air combat at all costs and the pilots who engage in that activity when times allows but do a substantial amount of time taking out ords and other targets so the first group has a base to do that from.
Our squad looks at the ultimate goal of the game which is to win the map. Furballing alone will not acomplish this. Nor will porking alone.
Our squad has become increasingly frustrated as what we are seeing on the knight side as a definite increase in knights engaging in the furball while our bases are being porked and overrun in coordinated attacks by rooks and bish. I can work togeher with anybody but It is apparent that some comments in this thread have been directed at our squad as we have made an effort to make our side aware of the importance of coordinated attacks. We would just like to have some help on winning the map and this is why we are advertising what is going on.

If we can change a few peoples minds to begin working together then our goal is working. You can label me an armchair general if wish but in doing so you label yourself. As far ar sucking at piloting no doubt thats true for myself but dont put that on some of my other squaddies as they are some of the best in the game. But are you perhaps insecure in your ability to pork a base? Can you take down ords at a large airfield by yourself? Can you take down troops at a defended v-base? Can you view the map and determine where your side is weakest and coordinate attacks to limit the ability of the other side from expoliting that? If you can and you choose not to why bother flying main areana at all? The dueling arena offers unlimited opportuites to kill or be killed by some of the most experienced pilots in the game. Or is it you just like to see your name in lights..............

Crying about porkers?

My complaint is about their constant spamming of country channel berating
those who refuse to spend their game time doing something they find boring.

Do you also spam country channel warchief?

Oh... wait... they only love red dar bars if there's also a green dar bar.
 

Anytime you feel man enough look me up. I'm usually flying knight on account of they
seem to be outnumbered when I log on.

[RufusLeaking]

How so..... I see them trying to kill fights or the other sides ability to fight all together.

The premise is that fighters exist to control the sky over a tactical or strategic area.  No air force in the world exists just to dog fight.  Dog fighting is a means to an end.  That end involves gorund attack, strategic bombing, interdiction, reconnaissance, etc.

In AH terms, how often does a busted base take become a good fur ball?  Furball lake in the DA is what the game is when there are no objectives other than dog fighting. 

With regards to the arm chair generals, they need to learn that there is no legitimate command authority in a game. Try persuasion instead of whining.  A corollary is the amount of "alerts" in the text buffer that are either one plane or for a base that is already shut down. We could use less Chicken Littles.

and there are alot of us who dont care about the map..  there's always a new map. and it gets reset every week automatically anyway.

as for porking, as someone said, if you wanna pork, go pork... If I want ords or troops down at some base, I go do it myself.. the whining about it on country is annoying at the least..

[BaldEagl]

I mentioned darbars.. are you referring to me?

Nope.  It was just a general comment.

Anytime you feel man enough look me up. I'm usually flying knight on account of they

What does my comment have to do with you and what would end up being a duel?  

BTW... "man enough"?  In a game?  I don't base my manhood on my ability to play a game.  Obviously by your comment you do.

[Saurdaukar]

Seriously - didnt we just do this thread with a different name?

The result was conclusive.

Whening teh whar is for toolbags.

  And you add nothing to the game either sir, I find your style of play just as boring and gamy as you find mine so it would seem we are at an impasse..  I bomb strat and enjoy the fight to and from my target and you up a plane and get a kill or are killed.  Well unless you are in a ship gun landing 26 kills like you did last night.

Well stick around awhile... as you mature in game I think you'll see the game is about the fight.

[Sol75]

And that would be the fight in game, not the purse fight whining complaining waaa waaa boo hoo you won't play the game my way BS on the forums.
