Although I won't be around much this week, I will post some of my findings and adventures while I am here, time permitting of course. And, my brief "welcome back" had a few surprises to start my return off right, or so I thought.
It was time to party, both my tier IV premium Soviet Attack Aircraft, LBSh, and Beta/after release reward tier IV premium American Fighter, Model 81A-1, were having birthdays. Meh, why not see if I can collect some prizes?
I saddled up with my old "tried and true" performer, the LBSh, and was on the losing team for the first two battles. I was most not-impressed with this less than stellar start....
The first battle was a blow-out disaster. Part of the problem was the fact I haven't played in 2 weeks and jumped into a Live battle, cold. That and coupled with the fact, I played in a "ground attack only" role. The other part of why things went wrong, my team was out played, plain and simple.
The second battle was on a different map, but the same story as the first. My team was taken apart plane by plane and I was saved for last, swarmed by a wave of reds.
However, third time was the charm, as they say. My team held together and our semi-cohesion won the day, finally.
Things were very different for the Model 81A-1. First, I got my favorite map, Winter War. Second, I was the top tiered plane for our team. Thirdly, and most importantly, my team played their aircraft to their absolute strengths. The enemy A5M did give me a hard time, but my Curtiss held together for the win.
I wonder what tomorrow will bring, since today's parties are over....
