When you would get shot down in a B-17 with a gunner and you both bailed high, the gunner would still have machine guns while in the chute. We bailed out over a base after de acking field and took machine gun the the end of the runway and vulched. TRUE EXPLOYTATION AT IT'S FINEST! Oh and chasing FISHU all over the map at 30K to try and end his streaks. This game has been a blast from the start.. we all just grew with it.

Salute

LOL.

Slow crawling b17, which all tried to strafe, and died. HT was trying panzer with b17 skin on it.
GV bug, when panzer bounced and flew to mars. I almost ram one panzer at 27k

GV bug, when panzer could accelerate and never slowed down. Once saw panzer racing at 320 mph across the map

Mitsu, which cried "Help" before start of vulch, then getting 10 kills. All thought he is that good

Chess in the sky.
You could fly to 30k, and find spits at 35k.
Buffs before guns were "fixed". They flew up to stratosphere to avoid fighters. So fighters flew even higher.
Rooks, which once put bishops and nits to 2 fields, and vulched for 2 days.
Nits which had 0 people during the european time.
Acks hugging were acks hugging. No one could fly close to field and stay alive.
Ack starring b17s.
Hristo, Hangtime, Torque, Mitsu, and 5000 other good guys who not around now.
Vulcano bug.
Rumbles, specially first one

Hangtimes furball. Duma's cartoons.

Yeah.. that was alot of fun. The supply system, as it was at that time, at work. Or not at work, courtesy of our bombs and rockets

And people wonder why we're in the bucket more than nits or bish

Remember "Car Bombing"?

When you could spawn a b-17, then release a bomb while still on the ground as a vulcher came in on you? He would go BOOM in the explosion, while you sat and waited for the next one.

Yes, were the great way to get zillion kills without shotting a single bullet. You flew close, then turned while still out of blast radius, he boomed, you get kill

Flying over a field with your bomber and catching 2 or 3 guys on the re-arm pad:)
Taking a B-26 up to take out GV's.
It was a relaxing way to end of day.
