another HUGE problem w/ some of the big maps, big isles specifically: If there is a fight at a couple of bases, the strat girls will pork the fuel at the base and all surrounding bases so you can't get to the fight, which then quickly peters out. Strat weenies have it made, I'm in disbelief that HT developed an A2A game with this kind of game play in mind. Why not just play "Risk" instead?

I totally disagree with Citabria on this idea. The big maps allow teams the time to come up with counter strategies that could not happen on the smaller maps. The best fights I had this month happened in the last three days.

Holy crapola! I hope that something else wasn't flying AH! 257 hours this tour! And I thought my 58 hours was excessive.

I find that all countries have a core of in-the-weeds furballers, but no country has a bigger Astronaut Corps than the Bishops.

Why despair over the high flyers, just go up and get 'em, or bait into coming down. There's nothing quite like stratogeeks to boost your K/D.

My regards,

How's it going with that 109E4? Checking the stats, it seems you haven't started yet. Probably practising offline.

Steve · « **Reply #24 on:** September 02, 2003, 01:44:41 AM »

Tour doesn't start til tomorrow!!

Well Beet1e, I flew it one mission. Had an la7 make several passes, then a 262. Finally was engaged by a high spit. The E has few redeeming factors. If I knew how to post a film I'd share it w/ ya. Oh my, what a poor plane. Have you ever actually spent significant time on one, or did you just try to think up the worst plane in the set?

beet1e · « **Reply #26 on:** September 02, 2003, 03:37:18 AM »

It's what I had to fly in Brand-W in the first week of the RPS when my squad was Axis. I once got three kills in a sortie in it. Had to get VERY close, and the guns were VERY marginal - especially with the typical sort of Brand-W connect with my dial-up modem.

If you can't hack it with the E, try the F. That's a much better plane. I'll check your stats when I get back on Saturday, but just now I'm off to meet CPP, and probably Flossy.

Toodle-Pip.

Big difference in flyin the E4 in WB's with an rps Beetle....you didn't have late war planes to contend with.....would you fly one now for an entire tour?

At least put the small maps each on a 1 week rotation. I can tolerate the large maps being 1 week each, if only I could look forward to 1 week of each of the small maps.
