Damn.. as usual; I get there too late.
Hey; Mighty1, remember the lessons you gave me on tanks there at a27?? I learned that tanks are lethal, tanks can be killed, tanks can and will (if allowed) carry the fight right to your base. (thanks again Mighty1, I had a blast that night)
I also learned how to avoid gettin killed by one (stay high) and how to react to a persistent armor attack.. kill the vbase it comes from. ]
Further; I learned that when a27 is being hit hard by armor that c47's will be comming from the south. How this fer dweebery.. I stalked goons and their escorts for two hours, racking up more than 15 kills picking off the air support for the tanks attacking the field... and ignored the tanks... they may dominate a field, but they cannot capture it
(yet)
Armor adds a new twist to the game.. it tends to keep field defenders low.. they are going for the easy kills against the tracks instead of reupping from a clear field and comming to their base at high alt for bomber and fighter cap. Makes my sortie sweet by assisting our friendly armor and killin all those low flying defenders tryin to pick off friendly armor.
Yep.. it's a game, room for a wide array of tactics and playing styles. If score cards are yer flying style; then armor is not a factor at all.. those guys crawling thru the mud may look like easy targets; but gettin at them leaves you naked and helpless for a fast rape job from somebody like me sittin on top.
If score cards are of paramount importance to you; you better learn how to fight at 35k and always up from an isolated field to get there.
BotaBing.. sorry; I appreciate your shock on learning that diffrent tactical situations exist than you had originally acommodated in your own gaming style.. but their existence does not in any way infer that the other guys tactics are 'cheeze'. If he got yah, you made the mistake.. not the other guy, and not the developer.
Good luck! (and thats a part of this game too)
