Title: 77th FS "Gamblers" Recruiting
Post by: ROX on July 23, 2008, 03:44:50 PM
77th Fighter Squadron "Gamblers" is recruiting!

We are an all adult squad that is very much dedicated to not only working together as a squad, we work together with many other squads to achieve objectives for FUN!

We are especially looking for players who love to do Attack & Bombing sorties/missions.

We have regular squad nights (attendance is not mandatory, unlike some squads), regular skills training, our own website, our own private forum, and our own off Aces High private chat forum.

If you play for score/rank, you probably might want to look into another squad. 

We also specialize as a Bomber/Attack squad...these two specialties are talents we need to achieve team objectives.  We're not a fighter squad and probably never will be.  Fighter kills are the icing on the cake for us, not the cake.  We get kills in all categories.

If you think teamwork is a blast...we just might be your new home!

Our requirements are few:

1)  Be on a full subscription (not the free 2 week one)
2)  Be 18 years old or older  (average age in the squad is about 32)
3)  Be willing to join a squad that flies exclusively knights

We also ask that you fly with us for awhile to make sure its a good "fit" on both sides.

I can't tell you how many of the squaddies I have recruited have initially said " I suxxor in fighters"..."I don't get a lot of fighter kills"...(and then I look at their score and they have a boatload of Bomber Damage Points, or a ton of Attack Kills).  That's exactly the kind of squaddies we're looking for!  We'll help teach you to be better at the others.

If teamwork is your thing, please look us up.

PM or email me, or look for me knights in-game.  Stage1 is our esteemed squad XO...look him up as well.

We'd be honored to have you fly with us!



Thank you for your time!

Not exactly a "typical" weekend.

We normally have 5-10 guys on for Sunday Night Training & Squad Ops, but this is summer.  SNTSO is not mandatory like some squads.  This time of year there are picnics, BBQ's, church events, etc.  If someone were to put 6 hours better spent with their kid/s, grandkids, or wifey over our cartoon squad nite...that would be sad.

Please feel free to fly with us again.  Besides, ya missed out on meeting Stage1, or beloved XO!

That figures....Last night we had storms blowing through and I kept getting discoed. Caddie was on last night also
but you left the arena. I'll be on tonight, so maybe I'll catch Stage1 then.

cc  Can't wait to meed Caddie.

It's our dry season...101-103 on the driveway (116 on blacktop) but if there is any moisture around in the late afternoon and evening a T-Storms form right over us (Central Arkansas) and then either go straight east to Memphis/Jackson or Memphis/Tuepelo or Little Rock/St. Louis. 

There are times it's ok one minute and the wife sticks her head in the door and says "Shutt'er down"---just as the first few lightning bolts hit the mountains.  That's why I'm there sometimes one minute and gone the next.

See you later this week.

Its been raining here everyday......My lawn looks like a hay field. Everytime I go to cut it; it rains...I wish it was dry so it would turn brown and I wouldn't have to cut it.... :lol

That was us here three months ago!  My backyard was so overgrown my wife complained she could hear machinegun fire and oriental voices late at night.

Now it's our dry season and (if I'm lucky) I won't have to mow again until late October.

Banshee/Major Bong is right.  They hit there too.  Sometimes tornados.

It sucks to have such little warning this time of year if a bad thunderstorm brews up.  I've already lost one ham rig and one PC to lightning.

Wellcome Caddie!!!




iTunes & Caddie are GTG on the private forums here on the AH board, but mattm32 needs to get registered and use your in-game ID as your forums ID.


Welcome guys!!!


We have a long way to go....

We need MANY, MANY, MANY, more bomber & attack specialists for our squad.  We'll have a full 36 man bomber specialist squad to fit out as well as a 36 man special operations group to fit out before we are done.  There are leadership opportunities & opportunities for advancement.


We'd like to get these slots filled with quality squaddies by the end of the year--so see ROX, Stage1 in-game.  Also slimmer, Dougall, and Digr1 are also good contacts.

We'd be honored to have you fly with us!
