... almost to the day two years after the B-29 was introduced to this game I finally killed my 100th B-29, the most elusive yet dangerous game in the skies of Aces High :banana:

WWhiskey, excuse my extreme dweebery, but immense greed and noble conduct are mutually exclusive :uhoh
The 'special' thing about it: I might be the first player to reach that magic number. Maybe I should retire now :old:
And don't worry, I won't open a new "kill club", the probably next 'notable event' should be my 100,000th total MA kill, which is still about 18,000 kills away. We will have to celebrate Dr7's 300,000th kill long before thatl ;)

aaaw that's just low snail lol
Maybe I'm just still butthurt from getting vulched in my jet with 20 kills a few minutes ago and know how he feels, though :lol

It's worse than you think. :o
First I attacked that 29 raid in my Ta-152 at 30k, but an oil leak sent me home without any kills. Greedy for that 'historic' kill as I was, I upped a Me 262 20 minutes later to catch them at lower altitude near their suspected landing airfield... :devil
There's a reason why I always take some extra fuel in 29s myself and avoid landing at front bases. They tried to do the same to me a few times before :D
-
Not an easy quest, WTG. Only killed 45 so far, myself. I was however, the first to get 100 kills in the B-29. <look at me too> :banana: :bolt:

I look at you! WTG :aok
In which tour was that?
-
Not in one tour. It was 103 kills over several tours in 2011*. Haven't flown it since. :lol Check your end of 2011 stats to confirm.
How many deaths did you have vs the B-29, btw?
*edit:
Tour 137 - 20
Tour 138 - 2
Tour 141 - 15
Tour 142 - 47 :)
Tour 143 - 19
-
I've seen less than 10 B29s since they were introduced.
-
I've only managed to shoot down 2 myself. :joystick: :bhead

I know, I just was curious when you did reach 100. But found it myself, tour 143. You even managed to get 47 kills in it in tour 142! :rock

By far my worst K/D against any bomber in AH. Hunting 29's is so much fun because they are so incredibly powerful :airplane:

There's a world of wonders above 10k, I tell ya! :old:

Impressive success rate. :aok By the looks of that, the TigerII needs a bigger perk. :D

I was happily pinging a set of 29's doing a NOE town run with my pintle gun :D
Regarding my success rate, I find one thing quite odd. As you can see I did much better against in the 163 as in the 152H.
On the other hand, when I'm in the B-29 myself, I'm much, much more 'afraid' of the Ta 152H - I'm doing much worse against it then against Me 163, which is almost a piece of cake to shoot down in the Superfortress. But a Ta appearing really makes me nervous...
:headscratch:

Probably because most people fly the 163 right up the low six, miss with almost every round and then run out of gas, right before you drill them. :ahand

I wish I knew how to alter video's in your accomplishment for 100 b-29's killed but this was the Closest I could come to and not meant as a mockery but as a tribute for all the intel you provide player's with stat's and Graph's and all

I would renames the Song mr Bomber killer instead of baggage handler

I have printed out said picture :old:
It does exist then :old:
-
Something about shooting a bomber on the ground where the simulation does not allow them to shoot back seems wrong.
After getting pounded several times trying to take off, I returned the favor by blasting a red taking off at their home base. It felt cheap but that is just me.
I know runway shots are and should be part of the simulation so those that do that I have no problem as it was real war. Well unless it is me they shoot at, :)
If bombers can be shot on the ground, they should be able to shoot back. Probably needs to be another thread.
Congratulations Lusche, man, you are some kind of good. :aok
-
Yo Snaily, you got plenty of mojo to spend in this department, you should do it more often!
Love the picture, the 30mm hit explosions really bring a smile to my face.
re: Gun turrets being disabled on ground, should only apply to first takeoffs.

I was thinking about possible reasons why they can't shoot back... Is it so people don't up bombers and sit on the runway when all the ack and GV hangars are down?
-
yeah, that's pretty much exactly why
-
Any bomber that dare bomb strats is fair game for a NOE vulch at landing.
I do all I can to make sure strat runners (and especially milk runners) don't make it home.

I tried to read your text but found your avatar to be far too disturbing.
