We need to do something. Tonight was the first night that I've ever just hit that quit button because I just couldn't take any more.
This truely was the worst night for me in a LONG time. Since I won't be happy unless I share it with you
here goes:
First of all I log on to find the great Knight gangbang going stronger than ever. (3 bases left, dar down) I didn't let this get to me so I decided to try to help in anyway I could. At base 4 I saw a p51 vulching the field, so when he turned to run I upped in a p51 myself. After chasing him down I managed to hit him A LOT. He lost 1/2 a wing, engine, and maybe his rudder. Instead of dying when he hit the ground, he ditched and I lost the kill. Knowing this happens from time to time I let it go. Next sortie I grabbed a ton of alt to go stop the rooks at 37. I lined up on a con, took off his wing and "Host connection lost."
(Of course this counts as a death you know.) Never one to give up I logged back on after checking ping times on both routes. Again I upped and climbed to 22k and headed for 37. I found a p51 below me, jumped him, and him out for SURE. (Reduced to lawndart.
) Just then I blew up. A N1k had spotted me and blew me away. Chalking that one up to bad SA I took off again. (I sure am persistant.
) This time I was in a b17. I thought I might hit 10 and slow down the rook attack. Just as I get to the target a 109 appeared. We went at it HO and I pinged him like mad. Unfortunately he must have got me even harder, because I blew up. I decided to give it one last try to see if I could get something to go right. Again I took a p51 to 25k this time and flew it right over 10. I saw one of the Bucs being attacked by 8 rooks at once, so I dove in there to try to do what little I could to help him. I lined up on a p38 at the top of a loop and lit him up for a good 2 seconds across his planform. He immediately went spiraling down. Thinking I finally got a kill I zoomed back up and tried to find my next target. Just then I looked down only to see that P38 (white and black smoke pouring out of it) ditch. Soon afterwards an F4u came in WAY above me. After about a minute of evasives he blew me up. I didn't feel like doing it again...
I guess we all have nights like this though. Hopefully tommorow will be different.
There, I feel better now.
I say lets try it out and see if we can make it work. I've done raids with Cave before and I'm sure he would be great.
