    Training Wishlist

    I figured I'd start this thread to maybe (although in a twisted way--sorry Spectre ) help Spectre out with what types of skills the players here would like to work on.

    I have 3 priorities: 1) dogfighting maneuvers, including basic ones. I've heard names used (ie. barrel roll, Immelman, etc.), but I don't always know what the exact maneuver entails (yeah, I'm a n00b ).

    2) High altitude level bombing. I'd love to be shown exactly how to use bombers accurately.

    3) Low level strafing runs. Like Sarc, I get overzealous at times and end up ramming my potential target, which I'm sure is not how you're supposed to do it (unless of course you're trying out for the Kamikaze squadron ).

    Definitely need some practice doing strafing runs. Some help identifying the correct targets would be great too. We did a mission and I attacked the wrong tank column. It wasn't as bad as what DudeMan did the other night though. :P

    We did the same mission last night and did the same thing, including blowing up our own tanks.

    Not to take away the importance of one-on-one training from a pro like Spectre but I found these great links.

    Here are links to all kinds of tutorials:
    http://mudmovers.com/tutorials/how_to_fly.htm

    And these videos are great for basic dog fighting tactics:
    http://mudmovers.com/tactics/tactics_bfm.htm

    I'll probably regret giving these out, but all for the good of the community eh?
