Re: Dambusters, WHERE ARE YOU?????
Three good runs tonight. Good working with charlie and sniper. Everyone got bombs on target 3 out of 3 trips,.....well almost everyone. Target obscured on first pass of last run, kiz and sniper had to circle back with fighters on us already. Sniper made his, I got shot up good, right engine gone, faked a death roll for two thousand meters on the way down then turned on target at 15 kilometers to dive bomb. Made it to half a kilometer ese of target and got hit in the face by a large bore AA gun. Hurt like hell for a second.
Almost made it.
Almost made it.

Re: Dambusters, WHERE ARE YOU?????
By that, I take it you mean "Kampfgeschwader 617," as in flying for the Germans. I'd really rather not. The squadron hasn't even resumed regular activity. Now would be the time we would want to attract any and all active ALLIED pilots, especially those who came back for WBS, before they get discouraged and quit again. When the squadron is populated and running good sized missions every night, then perhaps take a break and fly Axis...once.Charlie3 wrote:allied players are likely going to win the campaign tonight, tomorrow or this weekend... was a quick map

Re: Dambusters, WHERE ARE YOU?????
Irish. Have you every flown the HE111? She is a nice aircraft. Somewhat difficult to fly, but she carries one hell of a payload. I'll get back with you charlie. I am going to be on the road this weekend so it will probably be Tuesday before I have an answer.
We are the ambassadors for RDP and consider it our duty to promote this part of the game both sides. We are actually helping the game when we fly with the axis. Don't worry, it will wipe off. Just get you a good shower after the campaign. You will also meet some good people.
Irish do you have access to the squad secure forums yet

Not as yet, I haven't.Kizmet wrote:Irish. Have you every flown the HE111?
I have no doubt of that. Even the stench of sauerbraten mit sauerkraut und knoedel washes off with enough lye soap. I'm just saying that there may be good Allied pilots who quit (either again or for the first time) before they can be recruited, if the unit is Axis right away. Likewise, there might be Axis pilots who are retained, who will not want to switch back to flying Allied with the unit, so they won't help our numbers at all. You should take advantage of WBS and grow the Dambusters with Allied pilots first, then go Axis at your leisure.We are the ambassadors for RDP and consider it our duty to promote this part of the game both sides.

Re: Dambusters, WHERE ARE YOU?????
Gonna be hit and miss with me. I still have not been able to get Windstream to send a tech out to look at the physical infrastructure to see if it's cable between the house and the NID at the street or from the NID back to the CO. Dang nabit a sync issue, modem not staying online, has nothing to do with latency. They are gonna come or I'm going to post some shit on Facebook and see what happens. When you get in charlie, let me know and I'll see if I can get in. Some times, the sync works or a few hours them pop, up down every 45 seconds or so. Have to post between the sync's....LOL.
Miss playing with you guys.
