apologies yarbles,  we agreed on that un-confirmed time earlier in the thread.

We had a little issue with some random guy coming across to "watch the fight" he didn't interfere but it was a little annoying.  He ended up watching from one of our planes.

All the more reason to have private rooms for subscribing players as suggested by Murdr awhile back.

the score was 2-0, 2-0  (71st chose spit8, we took a spit9)

The first sortie was the closest with it ending up a 2 vs 3 against us,  Ams did very well in his yak against two ponies and I was following Jens's la7 around in my spit, I had no cannon so got as close as I could before sawing his wing off with 303's, Ams dealt with the 2 ponies.

The other rounds we had at least 4 guys alive afterward, the best being 6 in one round,   The numbers were 7vs7 then 8vs8 for the rest of the match.

Does anyone (on the other side) have a film of our scrimmages? I would love to hear what your vox sounds like.

didnt save any, and tbh the vox was even more random than our formations  :rolleyes:

I think its fair to say we didnt bring our best game to the fight, and were mercilessly punished for it :aok

edit: the spec guy was a bit distracting, but not as bad as a certain squeeker who kept buzzing through our scrim with Precision in a tempy...

Thanks Bruv, Jimmy and Holmes.

We have started training regularly on Sundays for future scrimmages. Maybe we need to put together an all stars team to beat the few. Best out of all the other squads. Precision have Klingan and er............... :lol 

I would like the film Bruv to get a few tips. Looks like I am going to be Precision CO for a few tours with the emphasis on building a kick bellybutton fighter/scrimmage squad. Then I guess we will go back to base taking when we have honed our skills. I must say I have learned allot from "The Few" and "71st" flying with you and loitering around your forums :salute

I went for your hog in the first round manny, bit of a target fix, knew you would be a problem if you weren't dealt with quickly.   your plane soaked up quite a bit of my ammo! 

I was like DIE DIE DIE  :)

Best of luck with that Yarbles, it will take time, patience and much practice.  The game I learnt to fly in we had squad fights every saturday evening as a hosted event.  I was lucky enough to fly with the very best there and learn't an awful lot in these types of situations.

lol Bruv   :furious

With the brutality you killed me the 1st round, I understood that keeping on in the corsair would be a bad idea   :)

I swapped then for the ponny D for... the same fate  :lol
