Seems like I have some catching up to do. Currently on 12th sortie as BF109 pilot in the Eastern Front with just 6 kills + 4 ground kills. :p

Well I just deleted my Sturmovik campaign I had going... was doing well, had lots of ground kills and stuff and generally enjoyable but was getting a bit repetive... I went honorably though, was making my way to our target, 2 BF-110's and 2-3 109s came upon our flight of 3, I broke off to defend the flight but a 110 got behind me and injured me a bit, Wing leader ordered me home so I broke off, a BF109 came and put more shells along with another 110, but I was still flying, elevator gone, rudder still there along with roll controls but shes smoking, managed to break off the followers and began to limp home, made to 1000 feet, but I was over an enemy airfield, flak rained around me ripping at my torn struture, another shot and the girls not turning right, but im coming home I hope, map reports incoming bogeys and my squad m8s are dead or MIA, (not 100% realism =p)
....
Boom
....

A flak shot tears into my Il-2's tail ripping it off...
...
Blackness
...
And the IL-2 I'd flown for 18 missions smashes into the ground.

Deffinatly thinking about starting up a BF-110 campaign now.

151 out of Manston, early days protecting the convoys. Nailed one Stuka so far, almost added a 109 to the list but ran out of ammo.

Dont you just love those desperate battles? Yesterday, was flying online, US vs. Japan. I was on a A20, everything went fine in the beginning got to my target by flying very low (~150m), the target was on a hill, so I had my fuse to ignite the bomb 5 sec after the impact. Blew up 4-6 tanks with the bomb, turned back home. Half way down the trip home I got jumped by a lone Zero, scored a few hits to him with my tailgun and he left. The Zero obviously had told the rest of his team, that there was an lone bomber in their area and 3mins later I was chased by 5-6 enemy planes. I hit the deck and pushed everything I got from the engines.

At one point, one of my team's P40 came in to help, but was shot down in under a minute. The odds were stacking quickly against me as I lost my tailgunner. Now, with no defense cababilities, I was sure I was dead. Then I saw the most beautiful thing ever; in the chat box it read "Blue side has won the round. Loading next map in 10 seconds.". So, I was saved by the bell.

Gotta go and crap a vid or a screenshot of it.

My current German campaign (95% realism; the other 5% concerns the camera views which I need for screenshots, so they aren't off; custom campaign [courtesy of the COMBAT-ACE downloads section]):

Jimbuna · 08-06-07, 04:17 AM

Actually, I believe it's supposed to be a Finnish Ferret

Oberon · 08-06-07, 05:48 AM

480 kills for 19 sorties?!! What do you use, Nuclear burst missiles?!?!?

Stealth Hunter · 08-06-07, 10:19 AM

Well, no. I actually spent A LOT of time after missions flying around and waiting for more enemies to appear. Fuel wasn't a problem after I downloaded the refueling mod for it. After about, oh, 5 hours of flying in 1 mission, I downed 20 planes. Again, this took A HELL OF A LOT OF TIME AND PATIENCE.

Dowly · 08-06-07, 10:46 AM

Ah, that's what I though.

Now, try the same thing by doing only what you've been told to. :rotfl:RL pilot cant fly sortie after sortie that long, so instead of 95% realism I'd say it's 40%. :p
