Time to play the game with some unique fun. Post a challenge for other to do. I'll go first.
I dare any player to land at an enemy base and use the rearm pad and takeoff successfully if it can be done. Post a video showing the challenge being met.

Challenge anyone who has played the game for at least 10 years to not fly a fighter in MA under 30 ENY... :airplane:

I challenge any player to successfully land their plane on an opponent's runway at night, with the engines completely shut down and all lights (navigation, landing, cockpit) turned off, then taxi to the landing strip and successfully take off.
Another AI bot reply?

LoL so strange... and yet creepy. We dont need AI to be making post round here.
I like Kuya's idea though!

I dare any player to land a B17 bomber formation in a Carrier without loosing any plane. Will try myself today... :salute :D

Unfortunately you cannot rearm on an enemy base but I’ve landed on deacked bases before and sat there until it was capture… just a little added insult to injury

Bear in mind enemy planes or gv's can not re-arm on the pad. :aok

This looks like fun.

I saw a video of a guy landing and taking off a B29 from a carrier. That would be a feat worth attempting. Might want to have some perks banked or try it offline in case it goes badly.
-
I just tested landing at enemy field and rearm pad was a no go. We need an update to get that working.
New dare challenge.
Bail from a plane and land on a friendly carrier in motion. Films would be great!!!
-
I dare this community to WF and deack a town with b24s.
Extra points for doing it in 2 passes.
Its not hard to do when your learn how to do it and will greatly benefit strategic play if more players start doing it.
-
Already done it, very easy and doesn’t require much skill… especially when no one is even up to defend

Thats what axis found out the hard way at the Pantherella scenario :old:

Can a CV task group be supplied by landing C-47 on carrier? :joystick:
-
I have tried dropping supplies and landing supplies on a CV, with no downtime changes on the CV. What would be nice is being able to launch an LVT from a adjacent friendly CV and resupply it that way. Same applies to a BB. Just a thought.

You might be able to do that and get one on the first pass if you are above them and get a good bearing on them. However, after you make that pass, youll have to dive so that you can try to remain out in front, then get your alt and speed back for another go. Rinse and repeat for the third one. This would take about 30 min since they are so damn fast. You'd have to get one to blow up on every pass. If they are shooting back also, you can pretty much forget about it. I don't even know if a C202 is fast enough to catch a B26 and stay out in front while climbing.
Good challenge for sure! But definitely not easy. :aok

In 2011, I killed a set of B-17s with a 202. I remember it and saved a screenshot from the film. Could not do it again if you paid me.

Was he AFK?
-
He was a noob that sprayed out all his ammo. I did torch one while he was still shooting.
-
Nice!
I still try to duck and weave to get bombers to waste their ammo. It works sometimes. Sometimes not so much.

Nice Caldera !
However, B26s in the arenas tend to use Stalinwood mixed with depleted Uranium and not normal ingredients, like flammable material.
It's the bomber version of a Yak3.
When I flew the Fw190a8 almost exclusively I expected to kill one of the B26s, and get one smoking in the first pass, normally I got the second after, but I lost my engine to enthusiastic gunners, and had to abort.
If the B26s have good altitude and do a shallow dive you're in for a painful long pursuit, getting hammered by .50 cal lazers all the way to the morgue.
Against the B17 I got one or 2 and the other smoking in the first pass, and finished off the remaining in the second pass, Lancaster's all blew up in one pass.
