Title: What's your best *accidental* mass kill?
Post by: LePaul on June 05, 2002, 09:29:08 AM
For example, last night I was in an 190-A8 with a 500 pounder at about 10k over A33.  A beloved La7 was on my six and I couldnt get rid of him, so I opted to dive .  As Im in the dive, I hear pings and see my aileron fly off.  Getting low, I try to lug my plane back skyward and decide to jettison the 500 pounder that isn't doing me any favors.  Suddenly I see 4 kills.  Turns out I lobbed a bomb onto the end of the runway as many cons were trying to up.  La7 got me in the end, mostly due to my "Wholly crap" reaction and laughter  :)

I think someone did something similar to a CV a few months ago...dropped on egg on it and managed to hit an entire mission upping?

Ever do something similar?  Post it  :)

Yea, Ive had a similar thing happen about a year ago.  I was taking a JU-88 over a base to de-ack it, I wanted to get the very last ack and was turning as hard as I could in the bombadier position, when the plane stalled BAD.  I was havving a tough time bringing her back into control, so I jettisoned every bomb I had, and caught a mission starting to roll, and got multiple kills (8 as I recall).  I did manage to regain control, but the mission proceeded to blow my low slow 88 out of the sky within a minute.

Dont tell anyone but that is one of my top 5 sorte' :D

got 7 one time ....

Was doing Jabo (surprise...  surprise ;)) in a Typhoon (surprise again ;)) I fired my rocket at the VH and voila : 7 kills :)

What made me laught is that at the same time a countryman got  7 kills too ... but at the other side of the map :)

14 kills in one second ...  at first I though the server was mad :D

Accidental was in Warbirds.  I had a FW190A8 with 1 bomb, and saw a buttload of B17's spawn on the runway...I swooped down and nailed 12 with one drop, strafed 2 more taking off.  Unfortunately it was my own squadron I had just left...they were pissed!

In AH, I came in NOE with a tiffy and caught 9 goons flying a nice tight formation enroute to a devasted friendly field.  Their escort was above but didn't notice me coming in low and just under the 500 ft. alt goons.  Shot down 8 of 9 in one pass, and cleaned up the last on second pass, had a conga line going home, 2 of the fiters pressed on to attempt to kill me as I flew thru Friendly AA and I recieved proximity kills for them. :D

I once took out 3 enemies within a couple of seconds after being mortally wounded.  At least 1 killshootered himself, and two more augered thinking I was still alive (amazing what a little barrel roll will do for ya when you're about to hit the water, I managed to stay alive all of 2 seconds, enough for two kills!).   Maybe it was 2 killshooter and 1 auger.  Who knows, I didn't film it, but counted about 5-6 cons out my 6 view.  ;)

well it wasn't me but a squadmate and it was in the CT but here goes...
JB74 (or 0tt0 in tour 27/early28) was in an A8 and i was in a flak going to the nearest base. our side was hevily outnumbered and the opposing country we hitting another base prety hard so we decided to run interference to slow them down. 0tt0 took an A8 with the intention of zooming the ack and then augering and getting a flack as well so we could camp on the runway. as he was lining up a mission of spits started to spawn on the runway. needless to say an A8 is the ultimate vulch machine and 0tt0 got 8 in 1 pass. as he extended the whines over channel 1 were flodding in so he decided to come back for a bit.... muhahahaha u know whats comming nex huh.... another 6 or 7 kill pass:D:D
he decided it was time to rtb then and had 4-5 spit 1's chase him all the way home and swarm him as he was landing, but who cares.. it took 4-5 of them to kill him. thats 4-5 planes tied up not really helping the war effort for at least 10 min.

No my Own, But my Squadie Brucifers record kill.   Hes too busy with real life presently to post himself.

It was in that old "other" flight sim.   I believe it was during the  Neimen Scenario.   Bru was under my command, and Aub was overall commander.

Just as we were assembling to take off,  Brucifer accidently picked off a bomb on the runway and Killed like 27 of us, all friendlies.   heheeheee

Dont worry, he is still cleaning latrines ;)

I saw that last night BDfpilot.
Citabrias got the record. In beta he droped an egg on about 20 B17's that were OTR. Pretty trippin stuff. :)

Nothing like that so far in AH but I caught a mission on the ground in AW and got 23 kills in one pass on the runway. I was in an A8.

It seems that most everyone gets those kill streaks in the A8. I wish I could fly the AH version as well as the AW version. I needs more practice I guess.

Not a mass kill, but, I was diving over a field in my f4u-1, was about to ditch my bombs start fighting.   I notice a low spit flying near in front of me, flying barely off the deck, tossed the bomb at the ground under him, and got an air to air kill with a 1000lber... :P

Excellent insertion of a subtle dweebride comment.

So.. as you dove for the security of the enemy's ack in an attempt to get away from an La-7....

Hehehe... its OK... just admit that you figured "what the hell" and let it go in the direction of the runway.  No shame in that.  :D

This elaborate explanation though..... ;)

Still think Cit holds the record.  My record is 4 as I downed a fighter hanger.  Have done 3 GVs in one drop hitting a vehicle hangar before.

My personal favorite is zooming in on two ostwinds about 400 yards apart and releasing from about 2k as I banked... nailed both of them with a totally wild drop.

My record is 17 kills in one blow. Came over a field with a fully loaden Lanc just as a Mission was lining up on runway. Timing was just perfect as I unloaded all I had on the runway :)

One of  the shortest Scenario sorties ever...

in AW Siccily i think someone pickeled an egg of a Stucka and killed 36 B25s on the spawn point :)

or was it the other way round can't remember anymore..

LOL.....geesh DejaVu, did your Mom not hug you as a kid hehe...oh wait, are you mad Tyson didnt hug you yesterday at your little protest?   :D

hehe...harsh...hey I thought the subtle La7 jab was good  :)  And the reason I dove down was a) try to outdive the guy and b) we had like 30 guys down on the deck pushing their way in.  I was being, umm, "greedy", hoping he'd find something better to shoot at!

Hey it was still cool...I did the same thing in a Lancaster an hour later...up over 35 and the VH popped up...I was late pickling the bombs and missed the VH by about 50ft, but hit where all the GVs were running for their lives  :)  Got 4 there too  (Someone on the buffer asked if I'd lobbed another runway bomb! LOL)

Play like last nights' make it well worth the $15  :D

Cant remember the exact number, around 6 or 8 kills when I dropped an egg from an Arado.

 
  Another sortie, I was in a jabo spit and was bounced at 12k, so I dropped ord, the egg i dropped happened to take out an ack at the field :) Not a multi kill sortie  but just as wierd.

  Would my 45 kill ostwind sortie count? :D   Text buffer was blue that day :)

Mine happened last night when I an a Squady were up hunting.  Jester (JesCAF) and I were out and we were both on our last hops, figuring to call it a night.  I said I was going in for a suicide run and thinking I was going to die quick and painless death... I zoomed into a Nights base and went straight down the small bases runway and unloaded in my Spit 9... funny thing was, 5 guys were all getting ready to roll.... :confused:   a total of 5 kills on it....
My suicide didn't work out, oh well.... They all upped and well what can I say but... 5v1, didn't look to promising for the few more seconds I was alive! :D

My best ever I witnessed a guy in a Ar-234 drop a FH when a mission was accidentally launched from the hanger he took out like 12 cons was the funniest thing.  

Squad mate Wotan and I were in ME-262's deep in enemy territory goofing around caught a mission of lancasters upping we proceeded to knock down 17 bishop buffs.

I was in Spit9 when higher La7, Spit9 and 190 dive to me.

I make very low level run to the friendly flak but guy was totally out of sitution.

Three enemys get fast closer allmost side by side. Distance was about 800, so I make out of plane Immelman & split-S to get them over shoot (pull hard totally vertical, roll 90 degree right, pull all the way back down, roll 90 degree left and last levell back to the friendly Flak).

All three cons auger to the sea less than 1 sec

Hehee

Jabo SpitIX (rockets+ bom +25-50%) is good for close by defense when enemy GVs or PTs attack to the airfield.

Not too big load but agile plane with good climb rate ;)

The best mass kill I ever got was last Tour in a PT Boat. I had  shot my Torps at an enemy CV close to our battle group. We sunk it and I was coming back to the battle group from behind and was going about the same speed as the battle group. Suddenly enemy PT boats were spawning in front of me and the battle group ship guns were killing them and I was shooting them. I was the closest to the spawning enemy PT boats and got kills from my hits as well as the ship hits I think. They kept spawning and  seemed to pop up the same distance in front of me and behind the ships. I racked up 34 Kills in about 2 minutes and then they stopped spawning I think the enemy CV task group moved back to there port. Funiest thing I ever saw! Pays to be in the right place at the right time! :)

My best one happened in AW.... but in my case everyone affected were friendlies!  :o

I used to be part of the volunteer staff there - [AWAR]Helen - and when EA.com decided we were no longer required, we had a final flyby on our last day.  At the end of the flyby, many of us had landed and were sitting on the runway all saying our goodbyes and generally chatting.... I think I was in my usual B17, with full bombload..... I was typing away, but at one point must have forgotten the / to type on channel 1, hit a B - and found myself back in the ready room, along with goodness knows how many others, all saying "WTF?"  I had accidentally dropped bombs on the runway, taking out everybody in close proximity!  Most embarrassing - but at least you can say we went out "with a bang"!  :D

Occassionally I pickle the odd 1000lb bomb onto  a spawn point just in case a few might up.

One day on spec I dropped two bombs on each end of a single runway.  Just before the first bomb hit.  An ME262 launched.  Boom!!!!!  He was not a happy bunny,  on the other end 4 N1ks spawned,  Boom!!!!!

All four N1k's

I felt for the guy in the 262,  no sympathy for the ufo dweebs tho:)  To make matters worse the four N1k's upped again and all died trying to get me.
