More likely F4U-1C perk news... Or something related to HA...
Maybe HiTech has hinted something on arena yesterday?

Ok, we are officially stepped down to DefCon 1.
The country radio was a little... animated... last night. I thought we might see an immediate anger-post. Didn't happen, happy to say.
Bet we see far more Bish's and Rooks tonight, and far less Knights... <hint, hint, wink, wink, nudge, nudge, say no more...>
-
I was only briefly online yesterday, could anyone give more information what happened since seems like I have missed the interesting stuff alltogether?
Hmm, I am planning to fly lots today and I am knight, should I be worried or maybe even leave to country?

I was on for a couple sorties, long enough to see the Knights get banged from two ends, something that happens to every country now and then...our turn in the bucket.
-
It was a night of rook and bish dining, accompanied by "fine whines".
As Rip said, just somebody's turn in the barrel.
It all evens out.

Fly what you like. Like what you fly. Don't worry about what the other guy flies. It's a game.

It wasn't anything that doesn't happen every single day to one side or the other. Most guys just shut up and flew. There are always the vocal ones that cannot stand to be in the situation and they cursed and carried on, and suggested switching sides, which I suspect may happen. Do whatever makes you happy says I, better to switch sides than quit.
I did go on open and ask for the other sides to end it; the noise on the country radio was growing unbearable. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
In one instance the noise grew so loud I said something to the effect:
"Guys, it is over. Let it end."
"What do you expect us to do, sit in the tower and wait?"
"Yup"
The way I figure it, if you can't take the pressure of being squished and it isn't fun to you, why keep upping? Better to log or switch sides if this upsets you so much.
As for myself, I had a blast last night. Sure, we were surrounded, so what? We defended as best we could, doomed though we were from the outset. There were several others that were there and seemed ok with it too (Apache, Commanche, et al). Some of us haven't learned that there is nothing you can say on the open channel in that situation that won't be viewed as whining. Heck, I even had some people telling me tough luck, and I wasn't complaining! (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Ah I see, knight getting whacked, nothing new then (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
If there is even one uncapped field left you still can fly fun sorties. For example few days ago us knights were down to our home island with one enemy field there. I upped in Ju 88A-4 and I climbed towards west, avoiding airfields and radars generally. I was near enemy training factory when I was intercepted by P-51 and Yak. They made numerous attacs and I lost all flaps, rudder and elevator but managed to shot down the P-51. For some reason Yak gave up and he flew home. I bombed rows of barracks and headed home with three new interceptors in my tail. Since I was badly shot up already I bailed and was taken capture. At hangar I found out that I earned 67 perk points in that sortie, not bad.
Maybe I can repeat that sortie tonight (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Damn... my whole squad missed it! We fly knights (i think their called knights). And all we complained about (amongst ourselves) was the lack of action. We did have several times when the action was pretty good but for the most part everyone seemed to be doing their best to avoid fighting.

We like to do fighter sweeps when our Radar is down, or our situation is limited to a defensive posture, get's our ATA sharpened. One can take advantage of being outnumbered to practice in area's that they don't visit very often, in our case, we don't do alot of ATA fighter sweeps since our squadron foundation is basically one of attack.
-
Most of the complaining I saw occured when well over half of the Rooks were engaged with well over half of the Bish at A10. A few knits were still complaining about gang-banging. I guess their wish came true later on?

Yes definitely! Switch sides! All you disgruntled woe is me gang-banged on Knits please come to Bishops. We'll gladly take you in. I just checked the arena and we're down to 2 fields. We could really use your help. Thank you.
-
Actually Nash, I think that was the intention of switching sides. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

See? Everyone gets their turn. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

The funny thing for me is it never occurs to me to look to see what the other two sides are doing. I don't care. I do read the buffer, and I agree AK, there were some that went on all night about how bad we had it. We were doing ok, bungled our attempts to take 35, but we had it prepped several times. We defended the south for a long time, sank the CV off of 34, killed several of them- how could it be so bad?

I was up last night and took part in the 10 missions. I have to say <S> to the AK's. They are persistant and always a handfull in action. Guys you made it stressful and fun. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
<SALUTE> AK's
