Westy's post is not moronic. He's just pointing out how large "the scope" is. You have to bomb the infrastructure also. Train station, Depots and the like so trains and supplies can't be taken to the target for some time after it has been damaged. If the depot, rail line, or rail station are within a few grids it won't take long to rebuild the target. If however depots rail lines and trains are taken into account and attacked, damaged or destroyed the difficulty with rebuilding the target is greater! Hence the target will stay down as long as supplies can't get there!

There's more then just hitting the main target, it's hitting the satellite targets that supply it and keep it up and running!

Now that's strat!

I don't know if all the "true" fluff drivers have turned in their mouse fluff controls and left AH but we still have plenty of lone, talentless, unskilled, suicide gameplay spoilers milkrunning fighter hangers.

The "true" fluffers did it more often which simpley translates into they gamed the the gameplay more eficiently and pissed off more people. Now fluffs ruin the game for less people.... lepaul and sunchaser no longer play much in the MA and are reduced to daisychains of back slapping and group hugs.

These are all good things but... We have a whole new group of attention starved and tallentless fluffers who want nothing more than their skilless milkrunning to "count" in an extremely lopsided way.

Laz and westy have this handled pretty well.

I'll just say its a good thing fluffing is finally in check some what.

The thing I find must remarkable aboue the buffers I see is their is a whole strat thingy out there ready for the fluffers.

But where do they go..... to kill the fhs at the bases that have the most number of folks fighting at.

HQ really isnt a strat target with the exception of dar which in it self is rediculous when each field has its own dar

But by hitting the real strat no one would pay umm much attention and it would take more folks and a even longer time to accomplish anything.

Theres twns depos all sorts of facilities train stations etc for fluffers. But they would be ignored.

The reason the big hq buff raids were responded to was because you either killed umm or spent 2 hours having less fun.

Now for the most part i ignore them they aint hard to kill they are just pointless.

I say make the runway shorter and add more trees nothing like an auto take off fluff dweeb cryin over channel 1

"buffs are pointless we cant even take off"

the good 'ole days...

LOL....that made my day...

You're right Laz, in the last week, I've only played Aces High for about 2 hours or so...way down from a few hours a night. But while you group Sun and I as "no skill" buff drivers, we flew in support of large raids and helped our respective countries take bases and along those Strat goals, Win.

Clearly you don't comprehend the Strat Role of Aces High, and even their documentation here points out that this is a Strat Game. Or, you disregard it and slam on the people who fly anything with more than 2 engines.

Whatever. You wanted the bomber guys gone, 2 are out. You claimed we ruined your fun, and HTC gave you guys what you wanted, a magical powerup of a super-goon to reverse what took us an hour to takeoff, climb to alt, get to target and bomb. Its always been a pig pile on the buff guys...

Dammit LePaul, I ain't out yet....as in I am still paying, at least till 1.09 gets a ride..

If I left entirely do you think I would even be concerned with the gnats around here?

Moose I remember running into one of your 10+ Ar-234 raids in my own 234. Since we had no guns I tried to ramm every plane in your formation to no avail. Go figure when you want to you can't when you dont want to some fediddlein newbie runs into you. Anyway I agree I miss those huge raids, but the 262 can nullify them now and the resupply makes it virtually pointless unless you own the bases by the HQ. In point I miss those raids.

Perhaps HQ would become a fun target again. A the days of 45 min flights in Ju88 to bomb a HQ. Perhaps with the 1.09 "Buff Version" things would be back to normal (1.07). And now way if u should be allowd to rebuild with a suply dropp, it has ruined the game for many Hq buff pilots. HQ should be a massiv complex of factories, radars and AA. And the rebuild time should be 2 hours.

In my humble oppinion offcource.
