LOL Since when does getting shot down constitute a suicide run?
Suicide is when you intentionally get yourself killed or intentionally crash.
People who fly to a base,pork it,then intentionally auger so they can hurry up and do it again are suicides. Not the ones that simply get shot down. LOL if getting shot down was a prerequisite for being labeled a suicider then you could lay that label on 99% of all the people that fly. I just looked it up and as of this posting in the "fighter" category the even the number 1 ranked fighter only lands 50% of his flights. After that the next 3 land only a little better then 1/3 of their flights. and that ratio only proceeds to get worse as you go down the list.
Most players int he game while are not suiciders are fly till ya die type players.
Just think about your own flights. How many times do you all actually get to land your flights compared to how many times you have taken off?
Admittedly many many times, I am one of your hated base porkers. But I certainly do NOT intentionally get myself killed thus Im not a suicider. LOL I have every intention on surviving my run to at least try to return to base. Unfortunately it doesnt usually work out that way LMAO. just the same is it doesnt usually work out that way for all of you.
Why do I insist on porking bases? Typically I pork the base that is sending hordes upon hordes of aircraft that are doing the exact same thing to over run the bases of my country and hanging around in usually massive numbers to vulch anything that moves.
Lately I've changed my primary target to that of the Barracks as opposed to the fuel when I see a fight going on of roughly the same amount of numbers on either side. This is an intentional move on my part to appease the furballing crowd.But as soon as I see then enemy side is gaining an advantage making the fight unfair or I see MY bases being bombed and hoarded. Sorry but your fuel and ammo has got to go bye bye. More often then not it is the only way to save your base's from being over run by the hoarders.
So, when I stop seeing massive hoards over the base of my country. I'll stop reducing your modes of transportation and fighting ability to that of Ox cart and slingshots.
I dont fly for rank or score. I have a rather novel approach to the game. I fly for whats best for my country. And if because of the hoards attacking us requires me to pound your base till its unusable so be it.
Therefore you have two options.
1- you can stop trying to splatter and /or try to over run MY bases.
2- Try and stop me.
heh Good luck! LMAO

OK, I like the strategic part of the game, but I am seeing why players are complaining about it and I have to agree. I'm seeing one F6F take fuel down to 25% for a large airfield. They come in and take all the fuel down and get shot down. A suicide run.
This is not acceptable. I can see why guys are complaining about it. What we need to find is something that will be acceptable for the strategic guys and the non strategic guys.
Two thoughts
1.) To make the fuel bunkers harder to take down
2.) Two different kinds of fuel bunkers(heavier bunkers for larger fields)
I like the strategic part of the game, but I have to agree with the non strategic guys on this. One plane should not be able to take fuel down for an airfield.
