He shoots Lead
Out of his head
He fires it right at you,
With great aim too.
With fire protruding out of his mouth,
You're not even safe within your own house.
So respect this great Cat,
or he'll regard you as a rat.

Had a good game earlier today, me and a M.O.M MORAF against, Von Len, Frank Barraka, Mcudden, and a different MORAF, we were obviously defending, only one guy broke through our barricade and bombed 1 hanger but a low rank guy on our team bombed two of our hangers with a tank. anyways I had close to 80 kills (the most in the game) but still had about 47 deaths aswell.

Hi,

First of al i will thank you for the nice banner you made. It is indeed one of the planes Sgr. Mystère flew with. The Hanriod HD1 was a french plane delivered to the belgium airforce during the second half of ww1. There was also another one (a nieuport or an sopwith camel) with his marking 'Mystère!' on it. He got 11 confermend victory's and a lot of not confermend ones.
Secondly, i'm proud to fly the Lafayette escadrille in this game because there's also place for the real war that happend here in my backyard a 100 years ago. If you look around here you can still see traces of this war in the many military graveyards and the few bunkers that are left. Also today, after nearly hunderd years farmers still found ammonition on there fields...

Here are some pictures of the progression of the game I was just in:)

Maybe i'm not doing it right, could someone explain how to put pictures on a post?

To post pictures on here first upload them to a site like photobucket or similar.. then use the link that starts with [IMG* .. and ends with /IMG] (the 'and ends with' part is the URL of the pic.. just post the link as text & your good to go!

Hey zeb I just wanted to say at first I really wasent sure what to think about you but now ive flown with you and got to know more about you your a good pilot and a knowledgeable person.And your putting together a really good squad...congrads to you for doing a fine job...

Thanks Gunners Inc.. I attribute my success with this squadron to two things.. the history that it brings to this game that I have grown to love.. and most importantly, the quality & character of the pilots that make up this squadron.. without them it would just be a name!

Fun flying with you too !

Just wanted to let every one know that's all the dogfighting for this week. I've allowed dogfight to take over and I'm falling behind in school so I won't be playing as much next week as I did this week. maybe in the future once I've learned to control how much to play and when to play i'll be able to play more.
Just so you guys don't wander where I am, I'll be on forum on off more often though still.

That's cool Tiger! School is way more important than this or any other game, so I applaud you realizing that your schoolwork is suffering & taking steps to rectify the situation! BRAVO! This game is very addictive lol!
It doesn't matter if you play every day or only once a week or even once a month.. you're a pilot of the Lafayette Escadrille & that won't change just because of real life getting in the way of your playing time!

Thx for your support Zebra, It is true school is more important. and me putting dogfight first is immature. I knew I wasn't supposed to put school behind so much and I've worried about my grades during the night giving me a lack of sleep. so i'm gunna work harder at school and in my spare time there is definatly no problem with me enjoying a few hours of dogfight.

Hey on the side it says junior boarder or something like that, whats that all about?

'Junior Boarder' refers to your level in how many posts you have made & thank you's received on this forum I believe..

More importantly than that, you have a 10:1 k/d ratio.. Oye, que buen trabajo!

At the top of my little corner of the woods.. & I still got a ways to go 'til level 30

Weird shenanigans in the game again.. spawned into a bomb the hangars mission as german and saw Mystère (Dace) alone against 3 others so I left and came back joining him in my beloved Spad..
Once Mystère got 15 kills the game ended.. like in a dogfight mission! (despite there being plenty of hangars left on both sides) sheeesh! Still, a win is a win!

Hey zebra! Yes, that is happening to EVERY game! Two Ton even pointed out you can hit your own teammates.... this is what happend when i tried that in one game lol

lol I hope to fly with you all soon!!

-Knmh

My last view as a Air Chief Marshal II...



I levelled Up! Now level 30.. next stop, MORAF! (& 28 kills until 3:1 k/d )
