More utter stupidity in matchups....

Spit I vs. Spit XVI??? 1940 planes vs. 1944 planes?

Zeke vs. Ki-61?

Any of you know any classic historic matchups?

Or is it always "ueberest plane available today vs. 2nd ueberest plane available today"? Or is it only "fight that never took place"?

Arenas are STUPID.

IMHO, the P-51 isn't really suited to the dueling rules because it takes away the 51's advantage over a lot of planes: speed.

Ohh, I dont know. To practice? See what you or it can do?  See what happens if you are engaged while you are not doing 450mph?

That's just ONE example.

Why would you as a P-51 driver, give up a marked speed advantage and go in co-alt, co-E, cold merge. What is this, a Renaissance Faire with airplanes?

It just makes no sense.
because i want to be good at flying the mustang in all types of fights. Most folks don't expect a P51 to knife fight with them. I will, hell the planes are free. i just want to come out the other side as the winner.

Exactly.   Sometimes "being aggressice int he Pony and knifefighting", will surprise and throw off the other con, expecting BnZ, etc.

Not much more than sixty-ish posts dedicated to criticizing a game you don't even play. 

Why not post under your normal account, D?

Who is this "D"?

FWIW, I do not hide behind multiple aliases. I don't need to. I post as 'Stiglr' everywhere I go.

And, I don't need to play AH to criticize it. I was playing it long before you were, and it just hasn't changed so much to where AH2 is a completely different game than AH1. To suggest that is... pure marketing.

But, if you dont play it, how do you know all that?

I was rtb in a 152 a few weeks back and got jumped by Shiv, A good stick and very fun fight :salute, He was closing fast so I did a low yo yo into a vertical reverse to force a fight, he overshot but I kept my E noticing I wasnt getting a shot then went up, he came down a little early where he should have roped and he missed his opportunity, me being slower popped him when he came back up, just one mistake on his part that I noticed from dueling alot where most of the fights between like sticks gets to, scissors  :rock

Edit- btw stinglr he was in a F4U I was in a 152, all it takes is 1 mistake by a good plane to lose to one that is a "Lesser"

Poor, poor Allen Dickerson. He's  jealous of HT's successes in the industry. Tell me Al have you figured out yet why many will not fly TW big scenarios?  If not here is a hint. Other than TW shoddy FM and added non essential tedium.  Think it's due in part to attitudes like yours?  You know the ooh soo smug never admit to being wrong type? We have that type here also. Fortunate for us they don't get the access to twist things into there vision of correctness.

Ya see Allen, we know HT's history in this industry. You are nothing more than a jealous little troll with delusions of grandeur. You manipulate TW open source and think now your a game developer.
Either shut it or or show us your game that you have done yourself with your money and time.

Have a nice day. :aok

Edit: I hear Voss is still looking for help with TaS. I think your stellar personality would be a perfect fit for his vision of gaming. You should give him a call. :aok
