The new stats format provided a nice stroll down memory lane.
Also nice to look at the progression thru the planeset i went thru (coming from 3yrs in AW3 on gamestorm).
My first tour (14) I was coming off AW3 and my late experience with their la5 and 109k - I apparently took up the La7 (instinctively recognized it as superior i guess, lol), but didn't care for it much while learning the new AH FM and dealing with the shocking, shocking i tell you, HOs.
My second tour (15) was a sampling of the planeset and continued learning.
Tours 16-20 saw me mostly in a Spit9.
Tours 21 - 30 was my pony phase. I tnb'd with it, not just e-fighting/bnz
Tour 31 - 42 was La-7 with a moderate amount of SpitV time.
Tours 43 and beyond were an increased sampling of the planeset, with La7 still being the primary ride. I spent alot of time in the CT (now AvA) as well, learning various axis/allied rides and matchups.
i can't emphasize enough how invaluable the AvA was in helping me learn various rides in an environment where they were at least competitive. this allowed me to utilize that knoweldge better in the MA.
I took a break tours 72-101.
YMMV
