W7LPNRICK, I remember I was comming up on you in your 110, and didn't realize we were nose on nose. You fired those damn WGr21's and almost blew my 109 out of the air.
That's another great story to tell at parties.  :aok

Depending on the situation Ho is a survival tool, ever fly at 10k and get jumped by a flight of 20k P51s? Yep climb and Ho away, they tend to ignore you after you get the first two, or continue to make 10k dives to pick you, either way I just turn into and HO.

In a normal fight on the deck - more then often I simply ignore Hoing or Ho'ers, simply because I am probably going to die anyway trying to turn fight some buffalo, or get lead to Wirblwinds.

I shot Titanic3 in the face when he first started AH and look where he is now.  :devil

In the ground and on fire?  :headscratch:


I HO when I feel like it. Dont expect to ping me on the initial merge and live on the second. If I don't fire on the initial merge, I'm looking for a fight. If I do, break off and kill me in 2 turns, if you still can't, then you deserved to be HOed.

  the game is concentrated on combat, not on shaking the screen.

 I am retired Army and a veteran Police officer and the idea of a fair fight is foreign to me. If I encounter a bad guy fair ain't on my mind. I am here to kill you as fast and easy as I can and go home at the end of the day. If I can kill every plane with one HO shot so be it. Any shootout you survive is a good one.

Only problem is that, that describes 95% of the gameplay in the mains, but back to my first point:
"...unless the other guy somehow knows you won't pull the trigger, why do guys go 'head on'..."

In other words if you don't want to be HO'd, don't HO (even if you aren't going to pull the trigger).

And now that I think of it, bailing-bombers and guys augering (ex when taking down radar) just to respawn quicker are far more of an irritant for me.

Anyway, to each his own, I don't have any problem with it.  I just don't understand why guys do it but then complain about it when the other guy pulls the trigger.

Truer words never spoken... If you don't want me to open up on your face the solution is simple... DON'T fly at mine. I would much prefer a "real fight" than a HO but when that's what they wanna do, then they shouldn't whine when they are killed.

Live by the HO die by the Ho!

That said I will gladly face shoot guys when I'm well outnumbered or their skill has left me with no other option for survival (not good sportsmanship but I'll do what I have to when it comes to the crunch)

That 110 story reminds me of a couple of times I was nose to nose and thought I was on someone's 6.

That happens too.

This is my whole point .. If your going to point your guns at me then I am to presume your going to pull the trigger .. therefore, if I cannot manoeuvre away from it then I too will be pulling the trigger.  I may go down but I would like to take you with me :P

After relentless HOing, and as a former true advocate of HOing as a public service in order to provide the HOed an opportunity to practice HO avoidance.... I've decided that Midway will no longer HO only because it is more fun and challenging to take down a HOer focusing on skill instead and less on luck. :angel:

Please HO me, I don't mind, and rather enjoy downing your HOing behind with a good spanking.   :aok
