Bring on the Hos

[titanic3]

Anyone else wanna take their turn at proving the point that you can dodge all HOs?

I can't fly at the moment but I'd like to see the movies from both ends if poss.

Now THAT's an interesting conversation.  What is it about avoiding the HO that makes you more vulnerable after the merge?  If I'm engaging, it's generally given me a window into a lead turn that I feel pretty decent about.

Well depending on the situation, i may or may not take the shot. Furball? Im ending ASAP. if its 1v1, i sometimes just turn onto thier 6.
And sometimes i do it just so i can see them go poof

Sure, will post them later. Though tbh, it isn't that interesting.

He can show both. I'm not skilled at movie posting, alas. =0)

110 HOing my beloved 1A three times. Pit, wingtip and tail. I'm gonna hafta chip off my avoidance rust, to say the least.

C'mon, at least be a classy brag.

what range did Titanic start firing at?

[nrshida]

I just want to see if it would work against my method.

there are some you cant avoid. like if your like if your in a 262 its HOing for days
Or your in a 47heavy right off the runway

what range did Titanic start firing at?

800-600. In a 110 with heavy gun pack.

[Arlo]

what range did Titanic start firing at?

round 500-600ish. But then, he was expecting avoidance. That does make a difference. I'll give him props for it, though. I tried new things that didn't play out. Roll ins are not advised.

Well, yeah.  But that's just describing a merge in general.  I've seen people mention that avoiding the HO puts you at a disadvantage versus merging in a manner that doesn't take it into account.  I was just wondering if that was what you meant.
