got power back up Friday afternoon and got to play a bit this weekend. I bounced around all the arenas this weekend. I seemed to have ran acrossed a lot of new names in the EWA and thought I would pass on some friendly advice.
1. when the P-38G is 800 behind your 109F ya dont climb.
2. dont bring a Spit1 or Hurri1 to deack a base. Yea its got a lot of ammo and it looks impressive, but they're tiny, tiny bullets and it takes a lot of them to do any damage. they are fun to dogfight in though, just aim for the cockpit
3. when you're flying to your target dont fly in a straight line and dont forget to look around, especially behind ya and below ya ;) a lot, do it often
4. You can outurn a Spit V in your hurricane, dont try to dive and out run a Spit V, or 109F, or P-38G, or anything else, well maybe the Zeke ;)
5. If you absolutely think you must take a head-on shot at least wait until you are 800 or less from the target plane, you kind of give it away when you start firing at 2k. Make it a suprise, unless you're in a HurrIIc and then I pretty much expect it anyway.
6. when flying the C-47 and you have no cover fighters its not a good idea to fly at 2,000 feet. Best protection is below 200feet
7. Bombers, any of them. when gunning try to wait until the enemy plane is 1000 or less. There are a few guys I have run across that can hit at 1500 but taking shots at my plane from 2000 out is a waste of your bullets

You MAY want to talk to Phantomz on this. When Trinity was new, I rolled a goon and landed 2 kills of his 262, AND Captured the base missing a wingtip.
I chose to fly alone while the jabo's were having fun.

you speaketh the truth, as I have also taken C-47s up on high, once or twice all the way up to 20k, and then dive bombed the troops in for a capture. However in this particular case, twice I caught this guy flying at 2k, straight and level and not pay attention and shot him down. he was the only plane in the whole grid and he was trying to sneak a vehicle base. I guess I just need to re-word it
6. when trying to SNEAK (milkrun) a base, when flying the C-47 and you have no friendly fighters within 25miles of you its not a good idea to fly at 2,000 feet. Best protection is below 200feet

I'm not the one "saying I'm good" by belittling other's. I've NEVER said "I'm good", nor will I ever. But I'm curious as to why you removed the "ElmerFudd" avatar? Nervous?
You've already show how "bright you are" by mistaking the Bismarck for the Tirpitz in another thread. Instead of trolling, you should be reading.

Flayed, you've deacked the NEW and IMPROVED fields? That guy I saw Sunday came in at about 500 feet and was just plain slaughtered, he got one ack before he just disintegrated :D

Yes, I am nervous! I never expected anyone to make the connection between the Wabbit and Elmer. I am asamed now. YOU, sir, have figured out my true identity in the game. Not sure what I am going to do now. Maybe Ill change the name to DuffyDk. Hope no one will ever figure that one out, but with people as smart as you in the game I am not sure :furious
By the way, I am only belittling the litle wannabe but never could or will be but really want to so I will post in every thread about how I can but really can't so I hide behind squads in the ma and hope they will send an invite but they havent and my nose is brown but they still wont let me in even though I changed my avatard.
Remind you of anyone? :rofl
BTW, I posted what I thought I knew about the Bismark. I did not have to double check with google before I posted my opinion. See? Not afraid to be wrong. Did you ask a BK to google it or did you take the risk of clicking at the wrong link and did it yourself?:lol

No google was needed, I cut and pasted it for you to READ and LEARN.
Really I "hide behind squads"? Which one, I'm curious? When have I said "Karaya wants to join the BK's?" What cracks me up is you swinging on my nuts like a lost puppy. I was PM'd by Bodhi to join Team Zeke, and I change my avatar to show said Team. I'm not the one hiding from HTC behind a shades account. Nor have I possibly been PNG'd by em.
You should searched before confirming that you are the Village Idiot. Keep trolling, eventually you'll realize you're fighing a losing battle. Some just have to find out the hard way though. Keep it up and keep giving me unnecessary attention. Oh yeah, invert in a Dictionary, if you're gonna keep flaming, spell your words right.

its well known that girls say that to guys with small things..
"It's just how you use it baby.... Which you're also pretty bad at, so maybe size does matter."
Sure, a man who knows how to use a toothpick can tear out a concrete sidewalk... But a man with a jackhammer can do it better and faster. Size does matter.
We now return you to your originally scheduled reality.

:rofl what else could I say to that? I hope HT does not find out? lol. Have you emailed them yet telling them that Bugs is Elmer? :rofl Do you really think they don't know?

I have made many invertments in my life. I think a dictionary would be a very good invertment. Nothing like inverting in a good book.
:rofl :rofl :rofl
