how do GV drivers take it?

[WWhiskey]

It is nice to be left alone to have a tank battle, it is also expected to get bombed if you advance on a base without taking the ord down!
The bombs will fall, weather you like it or not, unless you kill the ord!
The thing that is irritating is the big bad tanker that gets his hat handed to him, so he goes and gets a plane and some ord!

LOL, looking up my stats and trying to use that against me?

Fail.

Your claim to know how newbies operate is also a fail. Dive bombing, actually hitting your target, and pulling out (i.e. not augering) isn't quite that easy, as evidenced by all the NEWBIES plowing in on their dive runs and missing by miles.


And if you actually fought more you'd see it takes no skill to blast into a furball with an La7 or spit16 and rack up 2 kills, even if you have no SA or no skill. Die, reup, rinse, repeat. And it's way faster, more gratifying, and easier than trying to dive bomb GVs at a specific area.

Unreal.


Nevermind...please continue down the road blind without a cane.

Thats exactly why you SHOULD bomb GVs. 

You understand Sir!

If its an enemy tank, plane, ship  kill it.  Having your tank killed, or gunning a diving
il2 down is the same thing.  An enemy has been eliminated.  Now if AH was a game where players were treated as 'dead' for an hour after a kill. Then all would see how a war of attrition by losses ends faster than warriors resurrected in the tower and upping new hardware in seconds.
But realizing that AH is a game, and not real war (which a LOT of AHers have been in) then everything is game.
Just my view anyway, and I have been bombed out of many many GVs.

To answer the original question about how gver's take it I think we've seen the range of answers.

 If gv's are attacking an airfield for capture or to cause general mayhem then no problem.
 If gv's are attacking a  v base more of a problem but that's war.
 If it's a straight gv vs gv spawn fight and someone rains bombs on their parade then big problem and sometimes complaints on both sides.
 If it's a hopelessly camped spawn and the camping side is bombing as well - you can draw your own conclusion.



There are solutions to all the scenarios above of course and that is what the game is about.
I'm not really offering up my opinion on any of it since I'm guilty of participating in most of the above and I keep coming back because a new tank or plane is a mouse click away.

i'm guilty of bomb****ing gv battles,i would get mad because i was killed all the time so i upped and bombed them to get even,but thats not the way.if your in a gv battle  and your getting bombed,get a wirble or go to another field.now i only bomb when ene is in town or comming to base and vh is down.but yes i still hate getting bomb****ed.esp when there is plenty of other bases they can bomb.but panes bombed tanks in WWII.insome movies mustangs are refered to as tank killers.p-47d-40's carrie 3 bombs 8 rockets,p38-2 bombs 12 rockets-all very good at killing tanks.nuff said

when they are turtled...they take it on their back...

RELEASE THE COOKIE!

The bigger the tard/whiner, the more they should be bombed.  Bombing pacerr is the best, produces the best results.

[Getback]

Not sure if I ever bombed in TT. Hopefully not. After that everything is fair game. As far as getting bombed in a gv. Doesn't bother me. In fact I find it funny when they continuously miss. About a month ago I was turreted in a werble after just one kill. So I walk away from computer and let the werble just smolder there. Came back and had kill #4. hehe

I thought of this thread yesterday after I landed my 9 kills in a Typhoon, 7 of them from egging tanks and Osties.....

I won't name the player, but your whines brightened my day after I dropped that 1000 pounder on your head. If you're gonna sit in a perk tank up on a hill in that "perfect hiding spot" above the spawn and slaughter the GVs as they spawn in, and the GVs spawning in have little chance to fight back bacause at that range even if they can figure out where they're being killed from, and manage to get a round off.... they're likely bever gonna hit you and if they do your "uber armor" is gonna laugh off the round at that range.......

You better believe it buddy, you're getting an egg, special delivery.

The whines from being egged are not near as good and the ones you get when you hit the tower button after the egg is on the way.

  Yeh, that's why I never drop on anyone sitting on concrete, unless it's a wirb and I can see him shooting at someone else (hope being that he's distracted and won't have enough time to realize what's coming until too late.)

Doesn't make a difference to me.  I'll take the ditch, or give the kill to someone on the ground.  I just love the comments I get.

hehe  GV's by an AF is a recipe for a good time, just up my P38j and kill 3 with the loadout then rearm and repeat

I mean, when you guys see a cockroach on the ground, don't you step on it?
