Took down a few Alb.II's so going well so far for "Flight Sub-Lieutenant Bagpipe Bronson" Man, skipping directly over the N16?!?

Rick Rawlings 138 Posted May 8, 2021 Great fun! I am amazed at how much difference the little vibration animations make. I would vote to even up them a little more, if possible! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's 24th August 1916 in my campaign so I've got a few weeks yet before the Albatros starts arriving. I'll just increase the supply of whisky when they do. The DH can hold its own against the Halberstadt and Fokker DII and III. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rick Rawlings 138 Posted May 16, 2021 (edited) Starting another Rother Nought career with the new version. A pretty successful mission for our Sqn, 3 down with no losses for ourselves, with one credited to me. Edited May 16, 2021 by Rick Rawlings 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rick Rawlings 138 Posted May 22, 2021 Rest of Flight: "You don't need rockets..." Me: "Why don't we take rockets?" Rest of Flight: "Why in the world would you need rockets?!?" Me: "It's a railyard attack. We can destroy a lot more with rockets than just guns!" Rest of Flight: "...oh yeah..." 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AlbertTross 82 Posted May 22, 2021 A couple of pictures from my DID campaign. Lou has kindly let me try out his Bertangles airfields MOD. It works very well and adds to the immersion, turning the separate airfields into a huge aerodrome. Not to mention the possible targets for any German bomber in mid 1918. I also added one from a Nieuport career, love the detail on the Albatros. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

catch 81 Posted May 23, 2021 I haven't made a vid in some time and it jolly well shows lol. I need lotsa practice to get my hand in again. Rick Rawlings has been churning out some beauties lately and he did say pics/vids are welcome in the accounts for the upcoming final, final challenge. So here's a quickie before the fun begins .... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
