So my real life friend just started flying AH again. He's tried for a day here and there but always gets frustrated and quits only to be called back and give it another go (seems to be sticking this time though. :devil )
Anyway he logged on last night just a few min before the arena change to off hours, arena changes and we are on grinder. He asks what we should do and I take a quick look at the map and see those 2 V-bases real close together, we had 29 and rooks had 42. I say we should see about porking the troops at 42 to make it harder for those evil rooks to take our base.
I up my usual flight of 26's and my bud takes an A-20 saying he wants to practice dive bombing. We fly on down and I line up for my drop and just as I'm getting the filed in my bomb sight I hear BOOM BOOM but don't see any explosions and no plane on the enemy field.. I take a quick look at the map and have to chuckle as I say over squad vox "Hey I think you bombed the wrong base."
This makes everyone on chan laugh and my friend says well I don't have my call sign set as ANOOB for nothing lol.
And to be fair I remember when I was a noob back in AH1. I had just upped an OOBER TBM because you know any plane that can have a 2000lb bomb has to be good lol. I even had another noob gunning for me. I gain altitude and turn toward target, calibrate perfectly the old hard way and drop my bomb hitting exactly what I was aiming for when my gunner says to me. "you know that was OUR base right?" Evidently Bish had just captured it a few min before I got there to bomb and I didn't notice lol.
So <S> all you well intentioned NOOBS out there that make others laugh at your silly well intentioned antics and welcome to the game. :salute
And to all you other vets here please feel free to share one of your favorite noob moments and make all the new guys feel at home. :)
