Today I hugged the ack, shamelessly. Although these days I'm flying rook, I switched to nit today because the dar showed a fight, and they had the lower numbers against the bish. This is what I found:

Forgive me for my sins! :lol

Two things:
1.) Were they Jokers Jokers?
2.) Did you squelch zach1234? He must be a squeaker. :)

I have not hugged my ack today. But I will try to get to it this evening :)

My thoughts on this childish coin of phrase Ack-Hugger:
Friendly ack is simply another tool in my survival toolkit. When I am in need of additional coverage I pull this tool out and use it to my advantage. It is the natural way of things.
If someone is desperate, or foolish enough to dive through the ack to get a shot in at me then it is their prerogative, their risk.
Same goes for me. Besides, it is no guarantee of my survival anyway.

I don't mind ack hugging so much if the other guys are at terrible disadvantage. Perhaps if you give them a little room they will get brave.
I mind seeing guys I was relying on for mutual support flying into the midst of the ack trying to get low and slow bandits or outright vulch, or get killed trying to de-ack in a light fighter.
Anyway, it is another reason why "defense" is far more fun than "offense".

WOOOO WTG SVENO :D

that's awesome! :aok

If any of you are getting bored playing Bish or Rook because your hoards are chasing away all the fights, come to the Knights. If all you want is to get into fights, the Bish and Rook have made that a Knights only option. I don't know if they will be good fights based on the elite ch200 whineing criterion, but they will be non stop fights....... :P
-
Yes Knights do need help on occasion , and its always a battle . :salute

You ever run to ack only to realize it's not your field? I have :cry Drinkin and flyin don't mix boys! :lol

ok Im going to own up to this,
The Few logged on and the Nit dar bar in that area was huge, some of my guys were reluctant to go back there, but i dusted them off and they followed their fearless leader into battle, we had a record of 15 guys on vent and we proceeded to furball over that field,
We didn't vulch, the ack was still up but we worked a top CAP down and eliminated the huge dar, some die hards upped from the Nit carrier which we took care of eventually.
The Knights lacked the fight to take on our superior wingman skills and then some of us went in with GV's and sealed the deal, Across the whole Nit/bish front I would say 90% of them were at that field and 75% of the forces there were our squad alone. We didn't drop one hangar BTW.
It was a good 3 hours of Aces high for us flying, dying and lots of kills. :salute
i think i was the ki84 in that pick :)
a big :salute to sol75 for getting shot down repeatedly and still having the stomach to up and fight + not whining about anything including running to the bbs to post a screenie :lol

Np m8, I just think we have finally made the big time when someone comments on how masculine we look with all those pretty spits and such like on the BBS :D.
Yea that fight was nuts, me and johnny had just put eggs on the cv and I had a good p39 stick all over me after pulling out of the dive,
Johnny cleared me of him when a really good 109g14 started crawling all over my backside, Kazaa came in and owned about 3 guys and I limped home after taking loads of bullets from the 109. :)
Think I got you with some front quarter bursts but it was so frantic I had to hit something or get ganged.

Last week I was fighting a Pony, while a TG battle was taking place nearby. Finally the Pony driver decided that I'm about to shoot him down, so he dove for the deck and ran to the CV.
It was the wrong one. :rofl
