Whose your most feared squad? Can be in past, or present.

Ewe, good question!

After I got my sea-legs in Flight Sims, there really wasn't a Squad I 'Feared'.  But, when I first started in B-land FR of AW in the Fall of 1997, there was a Cz P38 Squad that used to rule the skies of the ETO map.  Forget their Squad Name ... Big-R, Big-T, Fluffy, Kitty.  They used to swoop in, kill the acks at our center base, and kill us in droves.

The most respected Squads we've faced off against as Nightmares are the Squads that have run Squad Nights the same night as ours, Sunday Nights.  There was the elite Cz Squad that SM put together, the Eagles I think.  Had all the trainers in it, man, those guys were killers!

But, the all time favorite Sunday Night knock down drag outs that we had were against the Damned!  Those guys and gals ruled the skies of AW on Sunday Nights!  We even had some rumblings in the Squad of changing Squad Nights because the Cz were thick as theives on that night (I think they even brought some buddies in from RR to help ;)).  I was sad when they left AW, we lost a great rivalry.

It was wonderful to come over to AH and face off against the Damned again on Sunday Nights ... brings back those memories of when I was first cutting my teeth in Flight Sims, when everything was kind of magical and unbelievable (now I'm just an old, doddering fool :)).

Salute Damned, you have always been a worthy opponent!

Cya Up!

Some japanese squads can be very nasty when they do co-operate. For example "tokio shock boys".

I dont "fear" them but I dont remember have I ever killed anyone...:o

Fear is for sissies, get em a la7 to run in:rolleyes:  Seriously, this is a Sim, no fear should ever be present here, and if it is, then you got something wrong with you.:D

Let me go hide now, Im scared of the guaranteed flamfest to follow my hijacking:eek:

Is it just me, or do the 'Tokyo Shock Boys' sound like some Japanese rent boy service? :D

No offence intended - it just sounds a bit camp. :)

Well, I don’t fear any squad yet, except …

About three months ago, just when I was starting doing things right in AH, I was at 20k in an Fw-190 (A8 I think) cruising toward the front. Checking six regularly and other views occasionally, I spotted 4 Ponys 10 o’clock high, closing. I realized then that either these guys were complete morons … or I was tagged-on-the-toe dead. After a brief engagement … the latter.

Now, for some reason when I see a high Pony, I frantically search for more of them. I don’t know who they were … but I fear them.

Sunday Nights was CZ Defense Night. We protected the sheep.

EVERY Green squad was involved. And I mean EVERY. Flying Tigers, Damned, Groverats, Hired Guns, others I'm forgetting...

I think I can honestly say this is probably what started the RJO, even tho none of the founding CZ Defense Squads founded the RJO

Ah, CDF nights.... used to love those, even though they usually started in earnest way past my bedtime.  Some of us on earlier would get involved with 'preparations' for the CDF Ops later.... great fun.

The Damned.  Because hearing 30 grown men sing South Pacific over range channel is extremely chilling.

Roger that Aub and Flossy, I didn't mean to leave anyone out, I knew it was an all-Country effort :).  And yes, you are right in a round-about sort of way.  The CDF in AirWarrior lead to B-land Squads uniting into the B-land Joint Operations group for self preservation purposes!  Most of these core Squads from B-land all happened to settle in Rookland, and founded the RJO, which has taken on a life of its own with advancements from old Cz and Az Squads, as well as Squads who never graced AW with their presence ;).

Cya Up!
