Title: Fighting over Tank Town! LOLOL
Post by: Getback on April 28, 2013, 04:01:30 AM
Rudeboi and I were winging yesterday over TT. In one sweep I was duking it out with a con and it got down to the deck. What stunned me was how many tanks were there. It was amazing! As if that wasn't enough, it was unbelievable how many tanks fired at me with their main guns. Staggering to say the least. Whizz, whirr, swissssh!  :lol :lol :lol

Those folks were having a great time.  :salute Tankers.

That's all good! I know you just want to do tank battles and yet folks come in with bombs. I was there just for the aerial combat.

Hanging out over a tank battle is always a great place to find something heavy slow and low.

You just have to find fun ways to play. I enjoy driving up to Tigers in my jeep and staying behind their turret just to make them mad.  :D Once all the other tanks figure out what is going on, it's time to boogie!  :bolt:



As for the main gunning thing, I haz a story. I was driving into an enemy town one time and I had no pintle gun (M18).
I saw Pand chasing a spit over head, the spit was banked hard right and his belly was towards me. Without even realizing it, I swung the turret around and popped off an HE round and took the spits wing off. Pand got the kill and was quickly called out on 200 for using "magic bullets." Pand was quick to throw me under the bus by saying that I had main gunned his plane. I received a PM of disbelief. That was the first and only time I have main gunned a plane. I can not make it happen if I try.

Back when I was playing Late War I always thought Tank Town a blast, whether you were in tanks or a plane. Always something going on there. In Midwar, nothing at all happens. Not sure I've even seen a tank there and usually some dweebs take over Tank Town Island, anyway, so it makes it a dead zone.

Throw you under the bus?   I wanted to make sure you got credit for making an amazing shot, although I had put more bullets in him to get the kill.  :salute

NDISLES is my favorite map.  I can remember spending many hours in a tank on the center island during the time we have two LW arenas that used the small maps (ndisles, smpizza, uterus, and malta?).  That was when I first started playing AH in 2007 and the next year or so.  I landed my first kills on ndisles (3 in a 190A8) :)

Some of my most fun kills are from main gun lead shots on low flying cons  :aok

If they fly down your barrel at a shallow angle, they deserve the shell.

What gets me is hitting a 190 at 100 yards away with a 75mm HE round right on the nose and having the plane fly away with an oil leak and engine still running.

Airplanes over tank town don't make much sense so I register my disagreement by shooting them down with a ME163..........or getting shot down in one.

The most best kills are the ones that are spotting for other gv's. They usually the ones that spray all the way in to mark your position then...... :joystick: Boom  HE round hits em....followed by cursing on 200ch or PM  :cry
