Laz-ass whined and squeaked back then too, then they made it more difficult, adding 3 FH's and 2 additional BH's to medium fields, and a total of 4 new hangars at small fields, Laz-ass still whines...don't you get it Apache?  Has he drawn you in to the point of blindness?  He'll NEVER be happy.  He wasn't in WB's, and he'll never be here.

Sure I get it rip. I simply advocate his position on the hangars issue. I logon to fight in a fighter, not take a scenic tour in one.

It was 14 seconds wasn't it. Sheesh, my memory.

suckhismaw said..."But in order to gain territory, Lazs-Hole, the most effective method for doing so is denying your enemies ability to make war. The single greatest threat to the undefended goon is the Ground Vehicle (Which we take out first on our squad missions) closely followed by the Fighter Hangars (Which is eliminated either simultaneously, or shortly after the VH). "

Got no problem with you gaining territory but why should you have it so easy so far as fighter hangers go?   I have suggested revetments inthe past and.... Under attack i don't think any fighters ever went through pre flights and on most fields... didn't bother to use the runways.    The fact remains that the
fluffers are simply milkrunning because of a poorly done gameplay feature.    Sure, there are plenty of fields left for me to take off from but.....

let me put it to you.... Why do you have dissable the fields where guys are simply having a good time?   There are plenty of fields for you to cripple without bothering the guys who like fighter planes.... I think you are just starved for attention.   I think that you are upset because you know that people would ignore fluffs if they possibly could..  They are no fun to defend against and no fun to fight...  they aren't even fun to kill.   they are an embarassment.

Urchin... I know what you are saying but I fly a -1a so 25% fuel is not as big a deal as it is to the LW crowd  course... why in the hell would they put about 70 gallons in my -1a and only put about 20 in your 109 even tho we are taking off from the same field...   All the strat crap like that is just concessions to keep the fluffers thinking that they are "needed".

You have got to be joking !!!

"There are plenty of fields for you to cripple without bothering the guys who like fighter planes." LOL ... you mean those fighter planes that might be upping from a base right next to our HQ and are constantly taking down our radar. I can hear it now on AHV ... Hey guys, Lazs is having fun at that field, we should leave it alone ... NOT !!!

If your not flying for the Knights, then my stance is ... "Nuke 'em for Morbid" (taken from Aliens as they approach the prison planet)

"Simply having a good time" ... I can't stop laughing !!!

Right back at ya man.

Noticed that bucket thing did ya? You know what? Once I quit worrying about numbers and just got down to flying, I became a better pilot. Actually, it was an SA improvement. I have a callous on my thumb but folks don't sneak up on me much, hehe. Its amazing what necessity will do for ya.

Dude, I think that's "Nuke 'em from orbit. It's the only way to be sure."

Urchin,

I think it's an excellent tactic, why take a Lanc when u can load 8x500lbs and effectively disable 2 bases for a period of time. Also it might not prevent fighters taking off and defending that base but it will certainly take the pressure off those attacking and trying to capture the main target base which they are serious about capturing 20 miles away.

Also I couldn't agree more on the frustrations for the poor goon pilots. I've also given up on flying goons unless I'm with, well was. With Squad. Or with people I know that I can trust. As it's hard enough to get a vulcher to leave the feast long enough just to give situation on town let alone expecting them to cover you as you come in. All very frustrating.

Personally I always try and keep goons informed as to situation over town and field and when they are 5 miles out get some alt and cover approach. As shooting cons off the six from a friendly goon are the easiest and to me some of the most rewarding kills in the game.

BTW Lazs-, Urchin: I'm not criticizing your points on the buff issue, just my two cents. Any buff that wants to take himself out of the game for 40 minutes or what ever it takes by climbing to 35k is fine with me. :-)

The only embaressment in this game is you, Lazs.

I should know better than to even bother discussing anything that slightly differs from what you have stored in your Half-track mind.

So from now on, my simple response to anything you say will be,

"Sure Lazs, whatever you say."

How'd that work for you? And if you ever reach a level where you think you can have a conversation without resorting to pre-pubescent name calling, you might garner a little more respect.

But until that time arrives, please translate the above tag line to a great big, "F*** YOU."


So, in closing,

Sure, Lazs, Whatever you say.
Sure, Lazs, Whatever you say.
Sure, Lazs, Whatever you say.
Sure, Lazs, Whatever you say.
Sure, Lazs, Whatever you say.
Sure, Lazs, Whatever you say.........

That is why I keep getting fuel down, to make you guys crazy and go furball somewhere else :)

B17 at 30k -- I almost never see them that high. It is just not nesessary. I usually get Ki67 or arado to 15k, 4 times of 5 it is enough for getting fuel down, and much faster.

When it comes to furballers/straters flame wars, it is funny, nothing else. This game is big enough to have place for all of us, strat generals, furballers, score mongers; and when new maps will be issued it will be even bigger. Just give other people the holy right to be wrong (i.e. to think the different way than you do :))

I am also not perfect in this, but I am trying to learn. :)
