Title: Thompson was to be had
Post by: doobs on July 08, 2006, 12:29:10 AM
Near end of frame, a gaggle of 51's low, knew it had to be Thompson.

Why,  they flew soooo tight and together like a bunch of amish grandmother's quilting a lace buttplug.

And he got a disco kill for gamedawg. you wait falcon you wait. and your little dog too.

Thought the allied CO is to be Thompson, states in ords that it is to be
68falcon.

When did we allow these things to change?

I had it, no more witty posts foy U:furious

Having Deth sub for falcon is like having Joe Montana come in for Joe Pisarcik.




and ROC what the hell you talkin about.

No doobs in orders states if we where unable to do we had to send a message to creaton and tell him who was thompson. And you do not think we could direct 180 people while flying a P51 do ya. And I am the CO not Falcon lol So I was to be Thompson.

Also we had our squad take the other skin that best resembled Thompson and If am not mistaken we all had blue noses just that thompsons had blue checkers on it and we had an extra black strip on the wing.:D
Also after Thompson killed Hartmann we had him land successfully.So by the time you seen us he was in the bar laughing,drinking beer and telling his war story how he put an end to Hartmann .:D

here is what was in the orders sent to us:p

The Allied Frame CO will pilot Lawrence Thompson’s P-51, with appropriate skin. The Frame CO will be required to be flight lead. If for some reason the Frame CO cannot participate, then it is his responsibility to assign Lawrence Thompson’s P-51 to another player. It will be the Frame CO’s responsibility to get the name of this player to CRETON.Failure to comply will result in a 50 point penalty:D

ok you both were there and playing, why wasn't the frame cic thompson.

says you can change if you cannot participate, doesn't state you can change because your the CIC, dux was axis cic and managed to do it.



don't get me wrong no big deal, but don't seem right.

My ords say its falcon, Frame CIC is KO and somehow Deth gets to be thompson.



And I'll tell ya what, axis did a damn fine job for being 50:O players short.

Post by: 68KO on July 08, 2006, 10:42:29 AM
Well your orders where wrong I am the CO of the 347th and falcon is the XO .also all I did was fly and type orders I seen no combat until the end when I was typing and got blind sided by a 262 snaeky german he got easy kill.I was on auto and flying along then BAM. Why where you guys so  short they must look into that. Nice fight doobs . We spanked ya but you guys did make a good effort.

From creton's ord's for axis I can only assume it said the same for allied.


The frame CO will be required to be flight lead. If for some reason the frame CO cannot participate, then it is his responsiblitiy to assign eric hartmann's 109 to another player. It will be the frame CO's responsiblity to get the name of this player to CRETON.  Failure to comply will result in a 50 point penalty.


You participated and you were the CIC, the rules required you to be Thompson, unless you could not participate.

The Allied CiC wasn't flying as Thompson??? Ruh Roo Raggy!!! I think a penalty needs to be served up here. Only seems fair.

CM's I respectfully request a ruling here please.

How about the loss of 8 B-26s due to friendly fire?

That's an easy 120 points..lol
or was that 160?

What I don't understand is why Axis was short players for all the frames.  We were out #'s 2 almost 3:1.  I don't think it because of absence either.  Just misplacement of the big squads.

Post by: doobs on July 08, 2006, 12:27:53 PM
being outnumbered makes it that much more fun, especially if ya live through the frame.

I know the JG44 and the LCA enjoyed there run, was a battle from 15 minutes in till the end.

That has NO bearing on the discussion at hand. The RULES REQUIRED the frame CiC fly as Thompson and that did not happen. It is clearly a failure to comply with the established rules for this FSO, and a penalty should be given to the Allies.

Again, I respectfully request a ruling from the CM's on this issue.

listen guys I was to go camping but it seems that are great goverment in NJ did not pass the budget until friday I was going camping and I was going away for the weekend and  thats why we picked deth7 as Thompson. SO I was not going to be there. When we called the state park to see if they opened and they where not. We had to go with Deth7 as thompson because in the orders it states that we send creaton an email and tell him who was thompson.  and we did it , it was to late to change thompson 5 mins before the event when I got there because the email was sent all ready.So stop crying guys we did not break the rules.:D

as stated in rules.
 it is his responsibility to assign Lawrence Thompson’s P-51 to another player. It will be the Frame CO’s responsibility to get the name of this player to CRETON.Failure to comply will result in a 50 point penalty

well why didn't ya just say so,







ahhhh, the old state didn't pass a budget and shut down, excuse,

how many times ya goin to use that one.

So, aside from the fact that it would have been unfair to both Deth7 and the CM to change back at the last minute when 68KO found out he could make it after all (glad you made it, sorry about the camping trip), 68KO was the one who found Hartmann and followed him untill Deth 7 was on him.  If KO had been Thompson, it would only have happened quicker.  That KO kept Hartmann in sight and vectored Deth7 in for an intercept is all the more awesome.  I didn't have joy on the pursuit, but I followed the whole thing on the radio.  

It doesn't really matter who flew Thompson and Hartmann.  The really cool thing was the teamwork involved, on the Knights as a whole for hitting their targets so well, and on the 347th for covering Thompson and coordinating the killing of Hartmann.

WTG 347th, all allied pilots and the same to all our enemies!  That was a really fun OP.

believe me even if KO found him and waited for deth to kill him, KO can't blow out candles on a birthday cake let alone kill hartmann.




pppphhhhfffftttt KO,

Post by: 68Hawk on July 09, 2006, 04:26:34 AM
68KO restrained himself with great discipline so that his team could most completely fulfill their mission and gain the most points possible.  Instead of getting a kill for himself, which I've seen him do plenty in a 51D, he waited and got Deth7 in for the intercept.

My hat's off to everyone involved in coordinating this shootdown.  I'm only sorry I was in the wrong piece of sky.  I'll fly KO's or any other 347th FG pilot's wing any day.  They are all good and honorable pilots.  

347th FG
Allied team for good teamwork and curageous flying
all honorable Axis for their stiff competition

I have great film of a perfect reversal I set up on KO... filled his engine, canopy, and both wings with hit sprites... and not a damn thing happened. I hope it at least scared the poop outta ya, KO. :)

Thanks anyway, Doobs... that's the way I understood the orders, too, but truth be told it would not have mattered a bit who was flying as Thompson. My escort had long since disappeared to wherever, the Axis was severely outnumbered flying outclassed aircraft. Let them call it a victory. ;)

[ps. I thought Falcon was to be CO, I put that in my first round of orders... that's where the Falcon/KO confusion comes from. Sorry.]

It is obvious, thats just the SUN glaring off of KO's newly quadrupled waxed P51

Don't see no stinkin Holes.




ya know looking at it again, how the hell did you have any piece of your plane left?  

And did ya check yourself for bullet wounds when ya landed.

KO deny everything, it was the wax job. The new Turtle wax product.

Turtle wax 3000, with kevlar.
Title: Thompson was to be had
Post by: daddog on July 10, 2006, 12:21:57 AM
The 109K has a single 30mm in the nose and two 13mm mgs.

My guess (only a guess) is all the hit sprites are 13mm mgs.  If a 30mm shell hit you would have had some serious, flight ending damage.

Cool screen shots Dux. :)

Sorry we coldn't stay alive longer than we did Dux.  We were running all over the skies with ponies chasing us everywhere in our Ta152's.  It wasn't till the fight drifted down to the 10-15K level and some High P47's droped on us that we lost control.  We had fun while it lasted though.

Guys, just to be clear... I'm not insinuating anything other than "what we see is not always what others see", and that sometimes it seems that we're all playing in different games.

68th... job well done.
