do you see what i'm getting at? these are all offensive platform kills with strong ordnance capabilities - except for them poor goonies.
i don't often hang over a base being attacked, so these are more often than not kills closer to an enemy base, prevented from reaching target. ok, ok, not all the fighters would have been heavy, but... then again, i have no way of knowing how many bogies i've made dump ord to gang me near their base, either. :D
and most of these kills were in a pony :eek: or spit. :p
interdiction... think about it. ;)

I'm impressed, you mentioned something about "Honour and Sportmanship", didn't you? Hypocrite. Remember, curiosity killed the cat. The people on top usually crow, forgetting that in the end, it all evens out. Keep thinking this is a sprint, because its a marathon.
Feel free to do a calculated reply because I won't read it.

Lol, you are very funny. Saying that is like, Starting a fight with another person, and saying, i am gonna punch you, but you cant punch me back. In the end, despite what you said, you will get beaten.

uhhhh, who set off this AI-response tard-bot?
FYI, tard, it's not all about *you*. it's all about *me* get with the program. :D
pssssttt, i never said anything about humility, but that's not the point of this post, anyway, and which point apparently went WHOOOOSSHHHH right over your lil blockhaid. :rolleyes:
ohhhhh and big clue for ya... i fly rooks. :eek:

Great... I would be much obliged if you would take your pee 51 and circle the base I am furballing from at say.... 20k. It would help my fun a lot if you would kill every talentless fluffer that tries to suicide/milkrun the fighter hangers to kill the fun.
I will kill all the low spits and lags and such that I can. It should work out great.

Hey! That's me! I'm famous, I'm famous!
Oh, and yes, he got me not far from my base :eek:

ehhe sikboy, you almost made it too, but i had umm lessee who was it.... andres maybe (?) 2 bogies come tearing on my 6 while i was trying to nail you and died right after you did (was a 38 and something else). hope they dumped ord to nail me.
:D

Masherbrum,
Ever think of switching to decaf?
-
I would have to look at my stats, which I generally avoid doing...
...my rebuttal is, as always, "Yes, but did you have fun accumulating those stats?"
-
Shane my apologies, I am just tired of heaing people gripe about "low numbers" online. You are doing your part and that is all we can ask of you as a fellow rook. I am new but am getting much better and have tallied my first three kills (5 hours total in MA) and an assist. They will get higher, but we have to work together. I looked at my stats once, believe I have been shot down enough times. But I think about it this way, I sacrificed myself so my teammates (Rooks and squad) could nail the enemy concentrated on me.
-
>>and most of these kills were in a pony or spit.
interdiction... think about it. <<
Shane:
Considering that most of my kills are in close and done either defending a base according to what I see on Dar or, off a CV defending or jaboing a field, I can honestly ...no. Btw, your perspective I assume, is from the lone wolf point of view; not everyone flies that way. I agree with you about interdiction though but, it's not the only situation that is required in the MA.
I note also that many of your kills are of Buffs, nice work if you can get it. When I am upping to defend, I usually see buffs at alts anywhere from 18 to 30K; with many of them at 30k. I for one don't want to climb to those alts to play footsy with alt monkees; I'd prefer them to come down. Many of the fiter types do because thats where the action is.
IMO what you post works for you, and may not be best for an entire country ;) But, on behalf of Rooks everywhere, thanks anyway :D Based on the events of last night in the MA, I think Rooks can handle their own very well ;) However, if you find yerself flying Rooks sometime, we can always use an intrepid sort to patrol where the air is thinest, and bring them damn alt types down where the rest of us can keel em :D
-
that's teh thing stryder... i pop the buffs at sub-10k alts. why even let the enemy get alt in the first place.
fighting low, defending *at* a base, really doesn't do much except provide a ton of perkies for the offense. the ones you're engaging are merely low, light fighters. stop 'em before they even drop in the first place, or make them dump ord mid-way between their target.
low rook nbrs don't bother me, just saying flying effectively isn't so hard to do. i seem to be just about the only one doing what i do.
look at the nbrs again... goons are pretty much the most plane-types i've killed, saving your precious rooks bases from being taken and ending your lil low furball. not that furballs are a bad thing, but an offensive furball makes more sense than a defensive one, no?
i really could care less about resets.
-
My kills are more evenly divided as are the planetypes I fly.
I have flown mainly base defence though, numbers have been 2:2:1 to our disadvantage which leaves me no options really.

Andres is easy - I've rammed him loads of times.

mrsid2 -- love the four chute kills -- Love it when the enemy decides to dive on you and looses control and smacks the ground.

Nifty was back there too. I didn't think a pony would get down and dirty in the hills so close to an enemy base. My eyes almost popped out when you dove down and bled e to get me. Figured you must be some dween on his frist pony ride trying to "Point and click" your way to fame. But then no matter what I was doing, there you were, and the guys behind you hadn't picked you off.. I knew something was up. When I died and it said "Shane shot your punk bellybutton down" I was about ready to eat my keyboard lol.

Why would I want to interdict when I can get in a perfectly good dogfight near my own base?

Best defense is a good offense...I say go vulch the bastages!

I'm not going to embarrass myself by trying to post my kills. I'll just say I do fairly well to average in the La7 this tour and last. Before that D9.
I like (no love) interdiction raids. Especially the Mindano map. Take off get low and head for an enemy base. I had a good one last night between 52 and 45. Got a total of about 7 planes in 20 mins,
( two sorties)a couple of Typhoons, P38's, N1k, and even 2 C47's. At one time last night I had about 4 guys chasing me trying to get me. I just zoomed along trimming the trees, zipping up and down the hills, barrel rolling, spoiling their shots till they got tired of chasing me, then did a loop and reversed doubling back and HOing the P38 that didn't give up.
Note: if your chasing an La7 weeds low at 390mph its probably me and I'm not running, I'm setting you up for the kill. Cause eventually I'll extend far enough away from you to loop or turn and it will be right about the time you give up on catching me.
I find it funny that I show up with one La7 and see a P38 take off, he sees me and drops his ordnance and 4 or 5 more show up and I drag them everywhere over the map.
Sometimes I fly the hi cap over fields looking for buffs (D9) or cap the cv (F6F or SeaFire). I'll also loadup for ground attack and hunt vehicles or take out strat targets (Mossie or 110g2), just depends on my mood and whats going on and who needs help.
But most of all I love zoomin and boomin airfields, take out an ack placement, vulch some N1k taking off, catching a plane flat footed or afk after taking off from his safe airfield.
Sure I die alot compared to most of you but I'm having fun (way too much fun to stop) and I almost always take a few of you with me along the way.
AirScrew out.

He must be a strict Machiavellian!! lol

How can you be tired of something you witnessed for only 2 weeks??? :confused:

Seeker, I expected more from you, specialy becouse you are a ex-squadie and I left AH. :(
I read this and I didnt remember u ramming me, so I went to the stats page of AH and checked it SINCE TOD 1.
I Killed you 7 (SEVEN) times and you killed me 1 (ONE) time.
Say you're better than others in public is very ugly, specialy when you are not and when you know that the other is no longer flying, so he will probably never read this.
Well, since I do love AH, I came to the site and searched for my name... and found this.
I wold like to think that you have some honor.
Im sure Im not the best pilot in AH but I dont like being called "EASY".... I am waiting for your answer.
Best Regards and
Andre(S)
The one who is not flying AH annymore and wasnt rammed by you several times.
-
Andres,
I'm very sorry to have to have hurt your feelings with a lame attempt at ironic humour, but do you think you can remember the night Shane, Sikboy and I are referring to? I think you and I bumped into each other four or five times that night alone; and every time I died. You and I were laughing about it on Ch1, and Shane was winding me up relentlessly about my appallling score on Ch 2. The one time I saw a kill on you was when I blew off a wing and rammed the wreckage. So I died even then, which every one was quick to point out.
Thus:
"Andres is easy - I've rammed him loads of times. " was a self depreciating irony, as any one who was there on the night would know the inverse was true.
I was fully expecting to to post a screen shot or something at the time and carry the joke on, after all, have I ever managed a kill on you in a fair fight?
I had no idea you'd left, when you coming back?
-
Wow this really is a sandlot :)
You want to see mine ???
I've got it here somewhere...
If I could find my Golly-gee glasses..
Honey ???
..hold on it's really something to look at..
Dammit.
Crap, I'll show you next time...
-
Hi Seeker,
Well, I wasnt wrong after all, I said I didnt expect it from you and in fact you didnt act as I interpreted.
Maybe you are the one disapointed with me now :(
I dont know when Im comming back but I do miss playing AH.
Anyway, sorry for the missinterpretation!
and have fun :)
Andre(S)

"Anyway, sorry for the missinterpretation!"
No worries old friend, hope to see you back in the skies soon :-)

When was this? I don't remember fighting many Rook P-51s recently. Been too busy with all them Bish recently. :D mmm, more targets...
