how did you follow it up on the next. Last one was my best and I'm getting waxed this one and it's only 7 days in. :cry

Combat Tour

This thread will please the scorers. they can show off their scores/stats but still wonder why nobody else cares. I can see the "Power Squadron" will be here any second now...
:rofl

I'm no where near the top, i just ended most my flights the last 6 day's on fire, minus wings or if I'm lucky in a chute.
-
I once got into the top 100, realised i was surrounded by arse stains, then left.

What the Raptor said.
I couldn't tell ya what map I'm flying or what country unless I look.
All I know for sure is my 38G has lots of holes in it most times :)
-
I would have to say the Arizona memorial tour was probably the best tour I've ever had.

What's a tour change...?:huh

Define "best tour" ?
score?
for score-potatos, I sucked and still finished 6th overall like 3 years ago.
My best tour would be irrelevant, as it is all about the fight I'm in at the current time. If maybe I went away satisfied from every engagement I went in for 30+ days that could be considered a best tour, but I doubt that will ever happen.

What is none of them, Alex.
-
I've had many good tours flying cartoon planes, wouldn't say one has been the best.

Ok Kara....was that REALLY your best tour?? :lol

Every tour is my best tour because I never keep track of anything. I just log on, find a fight, and fight. Sometimes I get into a fun fight, sometimes it's just BnZers and everyone runs when you turn the tables on them. It's always fun on AH2.
-
Don't know about best tour. I know I've had some great nights where my plane seemed to be coated with a new non-caloric silicon based kitchen lubricant my company has been working on. In the same night my 50 cals seem to become self guided into anything that’s red. The next night I up the red guys have found the kitchen lubricant and my 50 cals fly into anything but what’s red. If I could only find a way to not fly that next night. Guess that would be my best tour. :aok

I was on reduced flight time, but last tour was my best in fighters.
60 victories in 22 sorties. Of those, I landed all but four:
One ditch (ran out of gas and couldn't glide it home. I WOULD have made it, but a Dora dweeb in pursuit had to press the fight. Killed him on the first reversal but that still used just enough gas I came up short).
Two discos (both in-transit without enemy contact).
One death (collision. Spit turned into me at the last second. I hit the ground first).
-
My best scored tour took place some 3 or 4 years ago when HTC had this big 4 or 5 tour long shootout and gave money prices for the top ranks.
IIRC, it was Furball who collected the biggest check in the end.

I've had many great tours..... it is the fight that counts.......... nothing lke a great furball with your head on a swivel.

Couldn't agree more! :aok

After my best AH tour to date, I realized that I was limiting my own skillset by flying my chosen aircraft to always maximize it's advantages, and so followed up with one of my poorest, because I deliberately began pushing outside of my own "comfort" zone.
I had more fun, and by the end of the following tour had learned a ton more about what the plane is capable of. (Not that there isn't still a lot more.)

In terms of score/rank; 16th 2 camps ago followed by 34th last camp.
In terms of fun factor; Tour 86; 418 kills in 45 different planes/vehicles followed by:
Tour 87; 418 kills in 36 different planes/vehicles
Tour 88; 349 kills in 39 different planes/vehicles
Tour 89; 358 kills in 38 different planes/vehicles
Tour 90; 343 kills in 38 different planes/vehicles
I'm heading back toward those multi-plane camps now which was much more fun/rewarding than simply going for score/rank. Not that I won't try to keep my rank up as best I can but it's a lot harder changing rides every sortie.
Last camp I had 1 kill (0 deaths) in a Spit MkI. Other than finally learning how to kill GV's in a Hurri IID that sortie was the most fun I had the whole camp :)

My tours are worse. I still play to have fun.
