Tides of War

I'm in.

o yeah ill be there

Earlier this evening RED and Myself had a chance to fly against some of the guys from USHA.

Here's is what we think they did. Myself, RED and Lippspa started in teams by ourselves. RED and Myself on GE and Lippspa on GB. A few minutes later later a pilot by the name of SAREK came in and sat on the GB runway. He did not speak to us or anything. (Sarek by the way is the name of a Vulcan in the Star Trek Series. We should all know by now that USHA pilots have been using names of Star Trek actors as pilot tags. ) A few minutes later sleepy showed up and flew with GB. After a while a and while chatting with RED we thought that Sarek may have been recording us. We we were giving Lippsa some flying lessons and shooting sleepy. I sent a message on the comm to Sarek and asked heim to go get some of the USHA guys and lets have a little party. He didn't respond. After about 10 minutes or so Sarek did take off and then got shot down or landed. He said he would be right backand that he was going to change his tag so he could have better planes. Well, I don't recall him ever leaving the game and his plane stayed stationary on the deck. I believe he was recording us.

Anyway, A few minute later the SU base got real busy. GUESS WHO. Requiem, Heavy, 212, Magnum and a couple of others USHA pilots who I don't recall. Myself and RED went at them and of course got taken down quite quickly, but then again I wasn't really trying to show anything since I was pretty sure that Sarek was recording us. They came at us a different altitudes and they where all flying LA7's. I'm about 90 pecent positive this is what they will do against us this Sunday.

After looking at there last matches posted in the USAAC Forums, they pretty much used LA7's against the GE planes. Also, in the last match they had 10 to 12 pilots show up but they elected to fly only there top six, which meant that the other team had to do the same thing. If one team starts with 6 the opposing team must do the same.

USHA figured that if they flew only there best six pilots that it would be better for them because there less experienced pilots would not be flying and would cost them less kills

So here is what I believe there game plan will be: there best six against the six we put up against them

USHA will be home team which means that they will fly GB and SU. I believe they will fly all SU. and most likely all LA7

USHA has a habit of going right at the opposing team at the start.

My game plan which I want to work on a little is to make them chase us. We take off in GE low and fast, hit 300 MPH pull and over in a high arching loop, roll over at the top and head east gaining altitude. I want the first kill in both halves of the match. Thats 5 points for each first kill that we are going to need. I hoping to maybe send my best two pilots to get that kill. Then we all attack. If we lose one or both pilots we still come out ahead by 3 if we get the first kill. If our guys get killed we delay the attach until they get airborne again. I DON'T WANT TO SEE ANYONE MAKING ANY TURNS IN THE GE PLANES. ONLY UP AND DOWN AND SIDE TO SIDE. ZOOM AND BOOM ONLY.

Also I might be a little sneaky in the second half by having all of us in SU with a couple of guys in Yaks WHY?? Because Yaks in the right hands are very deadly against ZOOM AND BOOM. YAKS are really good planes if you can fly them, but you just don't want to get shot at with one. I most case when I have some one Z&B me in a GE plane, I'll make a Tight loop over the op of them and come around behind there six. Yaks could be a big surprise to our enemy.

Also, we have to focus on not making TEAM KILLS. This is what caused us to lose the second half last week. and we could of won it.

Tbar wants to have a practice tomorow night about 8pm I would like to have at least 12 liots show up for that. We will break the team into 2- 6 man squads and scrimmage.

Anyway this is a long report and I'm finished. Except for one thing. I did record or little paly time with USHA. lol
