Title: Buccaneers go on a rampage in Rookland

London Times, AP, dateline 9 Aug 1943

What can a dedicated and diciplined squadron do by way of punishing our sworn foes? Plenty.  Nine pilots from the highly decorated Buccaneers went on a rampage through the front and rear areas of Rookland last night, from about 8:00 PM MST until around 11:00 PM.  

After pounding and then capturing several strategically placed Rook bases -- with the able assistance of several non-Bucc volunteers -- our intrepid warriors drove a dagger straight into the industrial heart of the enemy. In a daring daylight raid, the Buccaneers braved intense anti-aircraft fire to completly destroy the primary Rook radar and control installation.  With the unstoppable momentum of Juggernaut, they then proceeded to smash the main enemy POL production facility, as well as a nearby armaments factory complex.

Eyewitness accounts and gun-camera footage confirms the total devastation wraught on the enemy.  Towering clouds of smoke and debris cloaked the enemy homelands in the shroud of bitter defeat.  On to final victory!

Hello.  I think I met you guys last night.   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

Shot down Delta's P-47 in my N1K2, and was nailed by 4 mor P-47s.  Don't quite recall the name of the pilot who got me.

S! Bucaneers.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

It's funny how things change so rapidly in this game.  Back in beta the Rooks almost always outnumbered both the Knights and the Bishops.  (The Knights were almost a ghost country.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) )
