Went to a GV base, VHs all down so I jumped in the manned ack.
2 friendly panzers defending base.
What did they do?
As soon as the B24 turned back they drove to base to land their combined 0 kills leaving the base undefended.
Can't remember your names, but do the Bish a favour, go to another country.

Kev it's not just the bish, it's everywhere. Same senerio, 2 friendlies on base, only thing holding us back from taking base was 2 ack guns. Not only would they not engage the acks, but whey stayed hidden behind bldgs, all in the name of possibly losing their kills :mad:
Never did take the base, couldn't get reinforcements in before it was too late :(
Oh well, what do ya do??:confused:
-
I guess thats a plus for people like me who dont drive GV's often. I've been trying it more lately because I figure if I'm going to gripe about them I might as well have experience to back it up. Besides that, I've been in a severe slump and to be blunt I stink up the air when I try to fly lately, so the ground war has been a refreshing break. I had a great laugh last night charging at a manned ack in my Panzer and weaving back and forth trying to hit him before he could kill me.
I still think GV's are dweeb-rides for the most part, but they do have their moments.

And when did the Bish make you the supreme commander of who can and cant play on your side?
Geeesh.
Its a game. Get over yourself.
-
Nobody made me supreme commander, was a suggestion.
That kind of 'defence' its no wonder we lose some bases so easily.
-
Bish have no supreme commander, we're a representative anarchy.
-p.

not everyone cares about "winning the war", sounds to me like there was nothing to fight there so they exit?

All commanders are elected using the Red Rover system. :D

There wasn't?
Thats why a 2 panzers and m3 arrived literally within minutes of them exiting. Got the 1st panzer to appear with the manned ack, couldn't get the second :(.
Was obvious after the VHs went down a gv attack was coming.
Guess they just wanted to land their combined 0 kills.

Furballin in B-24's..hehe. Always though furballin meant gettin in the middle of it...my bad, I was wrong. Not to mention, furballin at 8K, bombing GV's, from ur nice warm, comfy, B-24's.well out of harms way.
But, on the flip side of that coin, if you can hit GV's from 8K up then I 'Salute' your skills as a precision bomber :) Me on the other hand, can't hit the side of the red barn at 2K. But then I fully admitt.....I Suk at Flyin :cool:

there was plenty of nme fighters that night .. they were mostly pre occupied to come up and try there luck .. thats why i like 8k and above .. that suicide noe bombing is for the noobs anyway ...

Remember to run you little gvers .... its official =Ghost= Buff tour and im coming to give ya all headaches :p

Seems to me the failure here was yours, not theirs. You were in the manned ack so you had the job of downing the B24s. You didn't do your job, so the Panzers (which have zero probability of surviving against B24s given a pilot that is more than 3 years old) exited.
Annoying, isn't it, when the whine is on the other foot?

That was me Kev, sorry, I'll switch to Nits tomorrow ;)

-
lololol.

WTG Roscoroo!
I think my best was 6 kills with a single 1000lber on a VH at the right moment...:aok
Kev I feel your pain. But then, I would rather defend a base alone against 10 baddies then take a field with 20 goodguys.

This is the kind of crap I lose sleep over night after night.:mad:
I can't take much more of this. Something has to be done.:mad:
