Hmmm....we have a different approach:
Tired of fighting the roaring vulching bishop masses, a squaddie and I decide to take off in ponys and gain some alt to counter the lemming horde.
We do so, and fly to the T/O Bishop base. We spot a low dot incoming, presumably lemm...err....bishop.
It turned out to be a Pony, flying to join the perma-vulch. We decided to tangle. Since both, my squadmate and me, were microphone-impaired, we had to type. Rook are famous for their coordination, and this sigle issue takes its time. We do our homework and type the lengthy instructions to get coordinated: open squad channel, type: "IN", then sight back to cockpit, never look at the chat bar again.
Let the bogie pass below us (we had some good 2k. alt advantage), and I make a lazy Split-S, to build speed and bounce him from behind and below, hoping he don't notice me. I lost sight of my squaddie, and assume he is staing high to cover a possible bandit.
Now I'm closing *really* fast, and I'm having a clear look of his rear quarter and belly....I start salivating....Easy pull at around 700 yds, and start shooting like mad when at 300. In a matter of nanoseconds, I see the Bish pony smoking, and then losing a wing, then *BOOOM*....scratch one pony....hmmmmm I dĄdn't remember the pony as to having so much firepower???
I start an easy climb and routinely scan my 6, only to see that my squaddie had opted for a much more aggresive movement. Our mic-less coordination was not enough to avoid me getting fast and below my squaddie, and running into his bullet path.....scratch two ponys.....
That's *really* what saquaddies are for...
Now I only have to find my FDB appointment
