Post by: Muzzy on October 24, 2010, 11:21:18 AM
I didn't, but I'd like to know who did and how they did it.

Got 3 of them while in a Wirble defending airbase. Was 68.87 perkies for 3 claws and 1 Pony. Took ALOT of rounds to do it!  :banana:

I had a lotta fun chasing them, but that fun was short lived by being nailed by some loser in a spit 16.

Most guys were chasing the Claws, some were just picking.

I got 6.

All you had to do was spray at them with no tracers like I usually do.  :rock

The Lanc that bombed the Knight field on the island in the middle of this was not much fun...

I know I plastered a few with enough 20 and 30MM to sink a CV and the best I got was some parts falling off before they farted on me and sent be to the tower

I got one by hanging low under the tail and popping up to hit them with burst then ducking back down to avoid the "pink poop". Used an LA and it took most of the ammo.

i had one torn to pieces and just about dead until some one in my own squad, wont mention any names but lets just say he is the opposite of happy, blew off my wing and tail in one.

course as if this wasnt enough for him he also picked me when i had a 234 ripped up smoking and almost dead!!!!!!!

all is good though, it was for the most part a fun night!

Bagged one while I was flying a Mossie VI.  Quad Hispanos from very short range seemed to work.  Due to their shape it was hard to predict which way they would go.  I was in a full redout trying to keep my guns on him when I got the kill.  Got it on film too.

33.93 perks.

I got 2 of em, first one in a N1K at convergence range, second was with a long burst from my tempest.

I forgot to check the perks I got, but I know I wouldn't have been able to take up that tempest before the first kill.

I wanted to see if I could collide with the mother ship, so I took a Spit XVI for the task.  It turned out I couldn't collide with it, but it was fun to fly around in circles inside the mother ship looking for targets of opportunity.  I nailed this one guy who whined about it on 200 for a long time.  Can't remember his name, though . . .

I almost had one zeroed at 400 with my trusty A8 but got picked.

As for the mothership....

[cross posted from another thread]

I tried to fire a sidewinder at the main city-killing weapon...nothing.  

Proton Torpedo into the small thermal exhaust port...no joy.

Flew USS Constellation inside and overloaded the impulse engines (resulting in a 97.835 megaton fusion explosion)...diddley squat.  

Uploaded "Jolly Roger" virus...nada...input jump co-ordinates to Earth (using numbers derived from "All Along the Watchtower")...zilch...infected crew with Earth germs...zero....wave motion gun, zip... power regulator on the north tower, bupkiss...

I think it was just a glitch.

The mother ships were only holograms designed by the aliens to scare us...

I ended up with 6 claw kills by the end of the night.  It took mw AWHILE and never more then one in a sortie.  Was great fun, besides the usual spoilers to the party, I had a great time!
