nice try on the escorts for the swampys. had only three 109s for cover. once you three got popped we got waisted.... somebody going to land a crap load of kills over this mess up. the guy with the little hair piece under the nose is not going to be happy.not happy at all..

Quite the opposite for the group we were escorting drfritz...we were 9 escorts covering 4 110s. I think they all made it home but only half of us made it back since we got greedy on the way home and went after some B-26s that were outbound and it cost us a couple of engines.
-
JG11's escorts did a fine job,got us to target and we encountered several spits. I think we lost 1 or 2 planes and hit most of our target.
Most made it home,except a couple of diso's.
:salute
Thx,great job guys. :aok
-
USMC had a valiant if under-staffed escort. They did a great job getting us in to the fleet we sank, but the single squad of escorts vs 3+ squads of seafires (the entire sky was filled with enemy dots) killed us LITERALLY seconds after our Ju87s dropped -- literally on pullout from the dives we died en masse.
Sank the ships, though!
Just wish the escort had been larger, the defenders smaller, or something. Spits vs ju87s... blech.

That would be the 412th. But don't feel too bad, we only had 8 pilots on last night. :salute to JV44 and Swampdragons. You guys did get over 92% of our base.

WOW, those two C205's really got a butt load of kills? Those Bf109G-2's were dogs up there at 20K with gondies. But excuses are excuses :headscratch: The camaraderie was pretty cool, but we really thought we made a difference. We were sure we got them far enough away from the bombers, but it was the return trip that we couldn't help ya. It was still alot of fun :aok

Hardly 3 + Squadrons sir, 10 + 4 Seafires but yes, JU87s against Seafires, the outcome is predictable, the fact that you made it in to sink our carrier, lets just say that I don't think Churchill is impressed :noid

Do not forget the 109s. I counted at least 10.
-
All I saw was a cluster of a dozen dots high to our 3, (1 squad) a cluster low already engaged (2 squad) and then as we tried to get past them we ran into a massive horde of seafires co-alt directly between us and the target.
Yes, because you can't see planes 3000 yards out in real life, eh? In this game they all just pop up spontaneously with no icons until they're right on ya.
Oh well, the outcome was never in doubt, just the tally. I personally recieved ship killed on the CV, so...

i was going to post something snotty spikes, but then i realised that would petty. So I'm sorry that i had that cheap thought, and im sorry that we were top squad ( again) top kills ( again) top objects destroyed ( again) and that people like to join a top squad.
If it helps we all felt really really bad for you...really! In fact one of the guys brought you up after mission and as a squad there was a collective "who?" and we all felt bad about that ( after we remembered who you were)
But once again...we're sorry spokes. Really. :angel:

Lol just a fun poke, no need to get your panties in a wad.
Why would my name be brought up anyway? If it's an attempt sarcasm which I suspect it was, I didn't even smirk.

Spikes,
Your squad even fly this FSO?
Why even make your post?
Guess it makes you fell better about something.
Go figure, I thought this was about fun.

Spikes flies FSO with KN.

Per,
Thanks bro. KN is a class act and good sticks. I didn't know that a Muppet flew with you.
I just have a prob with guys that post here and put others down. Its not a bad thing having 27 guys that show up for FSO.
This game has a brutal learning curve and one day we will have no AH. Guys like him are just acceleration the demise.
<S> Per lets enjoy this while we have it.

Many Muppets fly with me in FSO. AoM doesnt fly FSO any more. Spikes is a good player and a good contributor to the community. I vouch for him any day. The fact he was pointing out is that getting 40 kills is impressive but let's not forget they had 27 pilots which is a Kill per pilot ratio of 1.5~.
I agree, having numbers is a great thing in FSO and I applaud CJ with that many kills. I dont think Spikes meant in a bad way. He was just pointing out some simple mathematics to counter the boasting.
Thanks for the kind words Joker.

This reply is for clarification only. It is not to detract from the great job the CJs did.
The following comes from the log summaries.
Most Kills:
Claim Jumpers 40 avg. 1.48/pilot
412th FS 25 avg. 3.13/pilot
Most Objects Destroyed:
USMC/715Sqn 69 avg. 7.67/pilot
A big WTG for all 3 squads :salute

JG11 just want to say great job guys. It was a pleasure being your escort. I have to say when the spits arrived they, as someone else put it, just appeared. Initially they got a run or two in on the buffs but we were lucky enough to get them pushed down from our formations. Army got our only kill last night. We lost 2 planes to enemy action and 1 to a disco.5 pilots with 1 kill does not sound good but I feel we were able to accomplish our mission with help from others. Most of the buffs made it home and that is what our mission was. Protect the buffs to and from target.
Again great Job JG11.
-
We as a squad averaged 3.13 kills/ pilot, but not all of our pilots killed 3 planes. As I stated in my previous post we had 8 show up and from what I heard from our C.O., we were the only squad tasked with defense of 117. 19 sets of buffs and 3 escorts came out to be 60 a/c. DazyCutr and I were on scout duty on one side of the base while the rest were doing search patterns on the other side. DazyCutr and I made first contact, took out the escorts, and then went to join the others fighting the buffs. By that time I think we had help from some other squads.
I love flying FSO and for the most part the stats and who killed who doesn't mean a lot to me. I like the immersion and the actual fights. Just MHO and again a big :salute to all the squads who fly and fight on Friday nights.

I want to add my own thanks here for the fine escort by JG27 and Kommando Novotny. We did lose a few planes, but in our "one pass and haul ***" we managed to destroy five of the six hangars plus two minor targets. We also scored four partial air-to-air kills and one full kill.
And you folks made our attack possible. Thank you! :salute

Our pleasure, I'll see that you get to repay someone next week with possible escort duty :aok

The Claim Jumpers had a blast! These guys know how to have fun and still laugh and dogfight and laugh again! The guys can click into combat mode and wingup when the cons are in range and just as easy to joke about dogfighting bomber vs. bomber! We practice missions with FSO rides and flight test the rides we will be assigned. A great group of guys are ready to share tips.

I had landed and was ready to tower when the base started flashing. I decided to roll low fuel and soon saw like 7 109s overhead. I died.
