Ohh well, I'll have to change my name then, it comes from the great Congolese ace who spent his last years in exile bending bananas for Dole, in an effort to pay off the Policarpov he crashed while hopped up on fermented monkey piss.


     Another good answer!

I don't think any worse of any squad that does this it's just something I won't do with No.9 and something I would reluctantly accept as part of the new mission arena for Aces High.


I dont think giving virtual metals and rank cheapen the real guys
metals and ranks anymore than playing war and play dying cheapen thier memories.

As long as we know the difference.

We are not the real aces. We aint the real Voss or Major Bong.
Thats how I can strafe churchs and kill players in thier chutes.

Its just a game.

LOL, Lee. Yeagar (Chucky) flat out said he shot the hell out of a chute. He said he didn't wanna have to face the bastage again. Kill em and be done with it. Why fight him again?

In our virtually unreal world, shooting chutes is a waste of ammo. Seeing as how I never seem to have enough I find it real hard to waste it on some guy thats alreayd bailed.  :cool:
