Title: Calling All Knights
Post by: twitchy on November 11, 2009, 12:38:10 PM
FBDred and I used to be the primary source for Knight missions in the game, when I left and then Dred, they apparently became a rarity. I posted a few last night and we had a really good response, so I plan to start posting some more missions and would like to invite you guys to join us in this endeavor.
Let's give the hoarde whiners something to talk about again :lol

Probably, but we're still going to post them. Posting those couple missions last night sure brought back some good times man, I missed upping in a huge formation like that, and judging from the response I got from the other knights, we all missed it.

Me and Dred used to take turns posting them all night, it was a ball and we moved alot of real estate in the process. I'd love to see this kind of team work return.

Well if nothing else, it makes for some great Screen Shots.  :aok
We did a Lanc Mission one time back in AH1 in 2003 that had about thirty or forty pilots, when we dropped our eggs it bogged the server and discoed everybody lol. I've got a film of it somewhere, was a really neat looking formation.
-Twitchy

Is there any way to run old AH1 films on the new film viewer, I tried it and the program crashes. I reinstalled AH1 on an old system to see if I could save those films, but it must have been an old update after the films were taken but they wouldn't run on it either.

Hey Rogent, long time no vis <S>

I say just start posting them, call them out on channel, and like anything else, don't expect alot at first. I think alot of players will base their decision to join a mission on the reputation of the mission poster, which improves with time. I'm not saying it's right or wrong, but it will happen for you just stick with it. A couple good missions turn alot of heads.

You mean missions like this. So how many knits does it take to capture a v base?

Capture failed at that time.

However, good luck with the missions.  :salute

Some questions I'd like you to think about:
How many RED guys would you say there are in sector [13,10]?
If the Knights wanted to fight the rooks in that area, where else would they fight?  That place would attract furballers, BnZ'ers and base capture men, how many of each were in that sector?
Does it really matter how many are in a mission?

It would only attract furballers if there is anyone in that bunch thatr fight. Generally that is where they fail.

Point taken! You can add how many rooks were on the ground too. It really wasn't a mission I don't believe. At first only a few came over, then at one point it was only me screaming for help with a full dar bar. But help came. Turned into a good time for all. I had 9 kills in two werble sorties and much to my dismay only one in flight and that was a proxy on a goon.  :rock

The other day however, there was an noe to a vbase and it included about 20 knights. LOL.

Frankly I really don't care. I'm glad people put up missions whether on dar or noe. As far as I'm concerned the more targets the better, the lower the alt the better, and the bigger the plane the better.

Nah! LOL, I haven't been called anything for a very long time. Besides, many knights and bish fly higher than I do. I do BnZ, pick, and even ho'd the other day. Often I fly into large dar bars where it looks very bad for me. I have some outstanding wingmen though. So most of the time I can get careless and just go for it.

At that vbase they were coming in at 20k+. No matter to me. They tried to bnz me to death. I just dodged and weaved and most importantly dragged them over the field of werbles. hehe.
