Tides of War

We are poor little lambs who have lost our way, bahh bahh bahh. Well I kinda thought the 2 week lay off would help us get focused and maybe get some practices in. We had 1 decent practice over the last 2 weeks and that was only for the few guys who showed up.

Rebellen started out with 5 and went to 6 pilots shortly there after. We few short 1 pilot pretty much the whole match. CoreyT now flying as Comanche got a first kill in the second half. That's pretty much the highlight of the match. BSS_Sheep tried joining us but was unable to because of connection problems.

Well, it's time to get back to basics. We need to work on Wingman skills and TS communication. Listen up. We all have the basics down pretty good. We can get up and we can fly ok and we all do it by ourselves pretty good.

Tbar made a statement today that was pretty much true. He stated that one on one he could take on most of the Rb guys by himself hand win. That's also true with me and most of you as well. Now what we need to do is to bring it together as a team.

This is why we get pounded match after match.

For us to get better as a team, WE NEED TO PRACTICE TOGETHER, AT THE SAME TIME, IN THE SAME ROOM! This is difficult because we pretty much have an international squad with pilots from all over the world. Still it has to be done. It's going to require some sacrifices on everyone,s part at some time. Some people may have to stay up late some people may have to get up a little early. Our only viable day to practice is on Saturdays.

Just how bad do some of you want to get out and win just one half of a match? I want the whole darn thing. I'm past the point of being satisfied with first kills. I want more. I want WINS!!! If you don't feel the same way, then you joined the wrong squad. Its nice to have fun, but its not fun getting beat week after week. The team out there are showing us some respect now. They can see that we are getting better. Now we have to take the next step and let them know that we can win and be a big threat to their existence.

There is only so many things you can do in those planes and we can do the same things everyone else doeeyTs. For those of you who want to win, practice will be next Saturday at 6:00 PM Sharp. I will try to put a practice match together against USHA or BBC. If not We will break into wins and fly against each other.

Ok, here are the scores from today's match. Read'em and weep!

wow, what a reality check that was . i showed up with a plane with no rank on it expecting to actually do something . i appolgize to the entire squad. i saw that atleast 8 people had signed up and figured that we would have more than enough . this wasnt the case and it hurt us bad. nothing like fighting an uphill battle from the start right? Well you can bet your wad that i wont be showing up in a plane without any rank in a match again. BSS Commanche did a great job , my hat is off to him ........keep up the good work and also Coldfire...... our long lost sheep who has returned and been a part of our foundation ....Great job .... TS or not you are critical piece of the BSS.....NOW LETS WING UP TOGETHER AND SEE HOW IT GOES. !!! I think our next main objective should be how many times you can count without abandoning your wingman... or how many times you and your wingman can string up an opponent

Thanks Talon m8, much appreciated

you are a very good pilot too urself and a critical part of BSS, like you said..we need to work more together and combine our skills.

and I agree Joker about every word you wrote. Tbar's statement was very true too i heared it on TS while the match, many of us can beat them all 1v1. we just need to work together.

Please guys check my new forum thread i wrote this morning and i will post shortly in a few minutes in HQ about this matter, I hope it's helpful.

Salute

BSS_c0ldfire

Sorry for not making it, I was busy on that day, I will try really hard to make it on the next one

Thanks for mentioning me guys. I agree with everyone above. We need more practice and we need to work together.
