He's scared of your name Murdr....

The responses he makes beat around the bush and one answer leads to another question from him. He bashes the AK's and other squads that do teamwork and have flown for years, but hides under a shade name. Oh well... I guess everyone needs a court jester, he will fit the bill.

BTW Murdr, nice flying last night, you didn't get my IL2, but you were close!!

Not on my ignore list... (No one is on it) You made many of the same points that I made later... You and I only disagree on one point though:

You said you thought of the old MA as 2 or 3 big blobs on the radar screen moving around to avoid each other.

I am a "Win the war" "Landgrabber" but when I see a huge enemy blob, particularly one taking bases, I dive in to slow them however I can, even if I have little or no help. I will bomb ammo, kill troops, kill goons, kill bombers... whatever it takes to stop or slow the momentum of the enemy.

The thing I truly miss about the old MA was the numbers. I miss those high count arenas where ANYTHING could happen, and sometimes fast. With numbers it was easy to coordinate attacks with squad members and with other squads both on defense and offense. Participation in SOME missions was so high... I remember once filming 45 or so formations of B-24s with a couple dozen P-51 escorts. I still take a look at some of those films now and then, mannnnnnn those were some amazing times!

We would appreciate your honesty. Original BBS name, please? Have you seen King06 lately?

Sorry, I wasn't saying the old MA was always like that. I was saying that it did at a point become common to see that happening (roving hordes avoiding each other), and that was likely a factor in the changes that took place.

I am more than happy to tag along with either camp if it leads to the kind of action Im looking for on a given night. I don't think one style is any less valid than the other.

Both camps have their zealots that cause friction from time to time, which is human nature and situation normal. That is not new now, or in 9/06, or in 9/99 for that matter. The only time it becomes an issue is when it consistantly surpresses the intended gameplay experience. HTC is the ultimate judge of that.

I have a film from a few weeks ago of a mission with 34 Ju-87s plus tag along fighter cover. It was fun, and it lead to a good span of fighting trying to secure the flattened fields afterwards. Nothing in the game system prevented this from happening.

Hmmm .... anyone notice something missing from his "things-to-do" list.

Hmmm.

We have heard something very much like this before.

If I'm correct, Its_a_game isn't revealing his identity because he was banned.

If I'm wrong, I'm certain he'll tell us his old handle.

For a guy claiming to be a new player he sure seems to have a lot of experiance. You guys are fattening this Troll to point where he won't fit under the bridge.

Why argue this point. People set thier own objectives for this game. One night you may be a base taker and the next a furballer. Just have fun that's the motto!!!!!!!!!!:aok
