watch where you're going (a cautionary tale)

Distracted this guy until he decided that maybe he should take a peek in front of him.  Sometimes being late is not better than never.  :lol

Only 9 seconds of film.  I almost forgot to start rolling it.

 To every man upon this earth, death cometh soon or late.
 And how can man die better, than facing fearful odds.
 For the ashes of his fathers and the temples of his Gods."

hmm I watched the film back and there are weird goings on.

I have to say that on my end I was sitting on the CV the whole time and the transition onto the other CV was smooth.  I saw the CV structure come at me like a brick wall and died.

On the film it looks like I mysteriously hover from one CV to the other and then stop + spontaneously combust  :uhoh

Did you send him a "ace pilot!" pm?  :D

On a semi-related note, I upped off a cv only to find the ack firing at spawn in.  I looked up in time to see a Ju-87 800' above dropping the MOAB right on me.  Ouch.

Hell, I got you beat Bruv:

I once upped a Panzer loaded with AP only, had a bomb land by me, and somehow teleport me onto an enemy CV (screen when white, cleared up and looked like I was on a CV. I check map and it says I'm in the middle of no where). Needless to say, I was kinda pissed that I didn't have any HE rounds.
