Pilot damage

Recommended Posts

drinks.gif Recently I tangeled with a flight of FE2Bs Cold ducks hun? Nailed 3 of them then overshot from too much speed swinging in front of a remaining Fe2B and he fired a short burst 10 Rds ? Anyway 2 bullets hit my pilot so I landed. The point being should he have still been left kicking with two 8 mm Rds in him. ? I fully expected the red curtain and loss of control,but it did not happen. 2nd Question how long should I keep him down time wise? The bullets couldnt have been good for him!this.gif Thanks

Hihihi!!

 

There was one British or Canadian pilot at the end of the war,

who fought several Fokker D VII in a Sopwith Snipe (I think it was).

You all surely know his name; I can't remember him right now.

 

The guy had been shot through a leg and an arm (maybe more!), and he fought on!

He fainted two or three times, only came alive again through the rush of air, when

he descended fast. He made it down and could land the crate.

 

I think, Catch's "verdict" is quite fair, Carrick .

(although I don't know nurse Gerta; I only heard of nurse Gladys). :grin:

when i hear my pilot getting hit, i land as quickly as possible. then i roll two ordinary 6 eyed dices. if both dices have the same eyes, then i consider him maimed. if not, i count them together. one point is one week. so he might get maimed or he might get wounded from 3 weeks up to 11 weeks. and this amound of days i advance manually. i rather advance manually day by day because i can still follow the progress and fates of my mates, and i can read all the news (in hospital or back at home) good.gif appearing

William George Barker, Canadian (201Sqn), on October 27, 1918. These were the four last of his fifty kills, that earned him the VC.

Good idea with the dice, Creaghorn.

 

William George Barker indeed, Capitaine Vengeur; thank you.

Are you an OFF Pilot already?

If yes: please send me a PM with your town; I'd like to add you to our OFF Forum Pilots Maps.

If not: Get it - you won't regret a single cent!

clapping.gif I will go with the Die roll since 2 bullet holes sounds two many Thanks all.

As for Nurse Greta, I rather be with a nurse that looks like Lucy Lawless.

Now I may risk to get my first warning for ungentlemanly (but typical manly) behaviour here, but what about this one?

You won't want to recover too soon.

Just curious.......how could you tell he was hit by 2 rounds? I'd like to know so I can add a realism element here as Creaghorn mentioned myself.

Ahhhh, you must have "in-game" messages up. I don't,so thats probably why I can't tell. Guess I could hit the Z key at the end of the game and check the "Pilots Health" figure and compare it to what he had originally.

How true Olham. Throughout history men have been taking risks where women are concerned, the biggest of which being when we first say, "Hello".
