+TexMurphy 0 Posted October 30, 2007 Just flew a fantastic escort mission. Playing the operation michael as Jasta11. Two unknown pilots, lothar and I where to escort a huuuuge wing of bombers towards a target west of Arras. Just flying escort to what 8-12 bombers is spectacular. Doing so flying over a big city is even more spectacular. Adding to the excitment was the bad weather. Not one of these extreamly dence fogs just full overcast. Approaching target we get hit by 6 Camels and 2 SE5a´s. In the old game this would have been a walk in the park. No sir not now. We where fighting an extreamly intence furball right next to the bombsite. Bombs exploding, AAA exploding, planes getting hit, smoke and fire everywhere. Never had such a intence experience in any of the TW games. One of the SE5a´s was getting away and I was just happy that I survived it, that Lothar and one of the others where still up in the air. I choose not to see if I can hunt him down. It was time to call it a day. We ended up sharing the kills. 3 for me, 2 for one of the others, 1 for the other one and 1 for Lothar. 7 kills with 1 loss has to be considered good as these guys where good pilots. Amazing how good this game is now. Tex Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+TexMurphy 0 Posted November 1, 2007 And today I had another great one. Me and the vR brothers ran into Geoffrey Bowman and Frank Soden of the 41st.... I got Geoffrey right of the merge and seconds later Manfred toasted Soden.... Gives great feeling of history seeing known pilots fight around you....

i90807065 0 Posted November 1, 2007 Sounds crazy awesome The best mission I had was 16 vs 16 F-15s and Su-27s granted, its not FE but dang we were facing each other from the beginning. We won but only me and two others. Poor nuggets Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
