The problem, and one you'd all identified early, was the need to jump in. Being a fighter crew, and not special forces, neither you nor Merlin was qualified to do so, and you lacked the time to learn. The simple, and most expedient solution had been a tandem jump- you'd simply be harnessed to one of the witches, who would control the jump and parachute. The concept alone was nerve wracking, especially as you did the math for yourself, plus your flight gear, plus a witch and her combat gear and her strikers- you'd be coming down pretty hard, you figured, and a bad landing would probably kill you.

Brigitte had laughed- a bad landing would probably kill you regardless- not a lot of room for mistakes on the mountain LZ they'd selected. She also pointed out you'd be jumping in with her, and the huge viking of a witch, Henrika, she'd be jumping with Merlin. Nothing to worry about, unless you were worried about being that close to maman.

The last was said as a challenge, though you'd laughed, trying to make light of your nervousness.

The other witches had been giving her nonstop shit since meeting you, almost a week before, now- they'd been leaving you alone, except to hint at wanting to know more about the real nature of you and Brigitte's relationship. Brigitte had made it clear, though, in her way, that she'd prefer if you'd left that to her.

In hindsight, you almost wish you hadn't.

Hooray for best time!

I've unfortunately not been able to sit down and shitscribble much, lately.

“No such thing, flyboy.” One of the witches- melody, you think it is, though you're not sure- you're having trouble telling over the noise of the jets. “Every aircraft has a dash ten line.”

“O-ours is blank.” Merlin states. “N-No known faults.”

“If anybody be able ta do dat, I believe it be you.” Brigitte says, from behind you. “But dis plane ain't bein yours no, it have known faults.”

“All the more reason to be getting out of it.” Katie agrees.

You're about to respond when the cockpit door opens up and the loadmaster steps back into the cargo bay, closing it behind him and pulling on a pair of clean flight gloves. He holds up both hands, fingers splayed apart- ten minutes. No more warning is necessary- the witches begin shuffling around- you and Brigitte will be last out, following Henrika and Merlin. With your combined weights, you'll fall faster, but you've been assured that, with the strikers, the landing won't be an issue at all.

“You ready for dis, Baron?” Brigitte asks, leaning forward to keep it quiet, breathing it practically in your ear.

If that was the case. I thought Frank will play along or just joke it off.

>>36842211

You underestimate Brigitte.

I've been meaning to ask this last week, but the schedule changes have been throwing me off.

Shouldn't the Soviets be running out of AKs, and and start breaking out the SKSs, Mosins, SVTs, and lever nuggets? I'm under the impression that those were cosmolined and stockpiled to arm the extreme rear line when the war demands start to eat into the supplies of AKs. This is not terribly important for guarding high value VIP projects, but I want to throw this out anyways.

>>36842326
I imagine the AKs is cheap enough to be stay produced but now with even lower quality.
I can see soviet raise militias and partisan armed with SKS and Nuggets tho.

>>36842326
They made Aks by the shitton anon, Maybe their running out of 74s but I'm sure there are plenty of 47s laying around. Also the Fighting is still in Poland so their not in the rearlines yet to break out the WW2 stuff.

>>36842326
>Implying they're anywhere near running out of AKs

>>36842326
I doubt it, they made a shitload of AKs but I wouldn't be shocked if SKSs started popping up in increasing numbers as NATO pushes deeper into Russia.

>>36842326
They will only break out that stuff if they need to impress the citizenry of a city to defend it. They have more than enough AKs of various kinds to supply the Red Army indefinitely, as well as their production.

>>36842500
Will make logistics a bitch though considering I think Russia stopped production of the Ak-47 for the 74 model and thus hhaving two similar guns but different rounds.

>>36842553
They made that many rounds for stockpile that they won't be running out any time soon.

>>36842595
No I'm just saying that (at least to me) the Ak-47 and the Ak-74 look really similar to each other.

I can only imagine the havoc when they start distributing ammo that some fool will get 47 ammunition for their 74 or vice versa

>>36842647
It might not be quite that bad, really. Only back echelon units would get 47s, and the warehouses storing both the obsolete rifles and ammo would only supply these rear echelon units

>>36842647
Different mags bruh, it is physically impossible for a human, even a slav, to put an AK-74 mag in an AK-47 and vice versa.

I asked because it was a phenomenon observed by the Germans among the Soviet rear line, such as railroad guards armed with WWI vintage Gras rifles and lever nuggets. This is not much of an issue in Strikers 89 per say, but more of a thing for Merc's PJ witches.

>>36842647
>No I'm just saying that (at least to me) the Ak-47 and the Ak-74 look really similar to each other.
Just look at the front gas block. Rule of thumb is that if it's tilted 45 degrees, it's a 47. If it's 90 degrees, it's a 74. Rule of thumb, because they made a small number of 74s with 45 degree blocks, too.

[x] So, your familiar is a cat, right? It's true they always land on their feet, right?

“So, your familiar is a cat, right?” You ask, watching the rest of the witches move towards the ramp in the back of the jet- you feel, more than see, her head nod.

“Mhmm.” She says.

“They always land on their feet, right?”

She laughs. “Baron, you be alright. You jus lean back and let maman take care 'o ya, like she always do.”

Merlin- Merlin! Giggles at that, along with the rest of them. Becoming a monk post-war is starting to look more and more attractive by the day. Or at least moving somewhere remote. Like the moon.

Your thoughts are interrupted by the loadmaster ordering you to go to oxygen- you have to work a bit to finally get the mask seated properly- while it's the same general design as the one you use in the wyvern, it's a standalone unit, not one designed to mate to your helmet. It takes a second to get the straps seated correctly, though you eventually do and turn on your oxygen bottle- nodding and giving the air force crewman a thumbs-up when he puts a hand on your shoulder, checking to see if you're ready.

He steps off to the side of the ramp and tethers in, clipping his safety line to a bulkhead, then hitting the ramp controls. They drop with a hydraulic whine, instantly sending small debris- candy bar wrappers, some loose papers- swirling through the bay and out into the night. The temperature in the bay drops by what feels like a good eighty degrees in an instant, the high-altitude cold sucking all the heat out of the pressurized space.

The special operations witches all trot off the ramp when the green light goes on, while you and Brigitte slide off- your height is awkward to manage, even for Brigitte in strikers, so you had to slide across the deck on your butt.

1/2

>>36842891
Don't 74 have that larger muzzle brake thingy compared to 47?

You're struck by just how cold it is up here- you're amazed the exposed skin between the strikers and their uniform jackets on the witches isn't instantly frostbitten. Below, you can see the pale gray of clouds- while everyone had wanted to avoid a blizzard, one had apparently brewed up while you were en route anyway.

Still, Maman lands you after what seems like hours hanging beneath a parachute, and quickly frees her harness from yours- yours, of course, is a throwaway, while hers still has equipment she'll need for their extraction later.

You quickly link up with the rest of the team and Brigitte consults a wrist-mounted MFD, almost identical to the ones used by the flight witches.

“De good news,” She starts, “is we only about tree mile from de flight line.”

“What's the bad news?” Katie asks, quietly.

“Part o dat is a climb.” Brigitte responds. “De udda way be longa, but I tink we mebby should use it instead, what wid our guests an all.”

“How much longer?” Someone- you're not sure who- asks.

“Be about eight mile, but none of it be vertical.” She says.

Merlin shakes her head. “B-but as high as we w-were in the plane, s-someone will have s-seen something. T-they may not k-know what they saw, b-but they saw something.”

One of the SEALs snorts. “Kid, that thing is bleeding edge, totally invisible to everything. No way they saw us.”

“T-the Fandance was s-supposed to be invisible t-to.” Merlin responds. “A-and the N-night raiders over P-poland.”

Brigitte shrugs. “If ya tink ya can make de climb, den we'll do dat.” She says. “If she be right, maybe dey be investigatin. De plane don't be stayin around, but if dey be paranoid, it be causin us problems, sure.”

[x] We'll make the climb, the extra time will be useful, especially if they saw us.

“We'll make the climb.” You say, looking at Brigitte. “If they alerted their air defense net, it's going to be a bastard to get out of here for us, let alone for you.”

“Don't be worried about is, non.” Brigitte says with a bit of a grin. “We be knowin how to be takin care of ourselves.” She looks around and stands up. “Alright, breaktime be ovah. Let's go.”

Three miles is almost nothing- you run five in the mornings anyway, so what's three? Should be a walk in the park.

You have to re-assess when you take a look at the climb- it's a good three hundred meters, easy, up an almost sheer rockface, and it's not like you brought climbing gear, just your flight bag.

The Witches take it in stride, with Kim and Melody scrambling up, using their striker's armored fronts to gouge out hand and footholds, then dropping rope lines. Another two SEALs are up next, then they drop a web harness and pull first Merlin, then yourself up.

“I could almost get used to this.” You say to Brigitte, when she joins you at the top. She grins at you.

“Don't be getting too used to maman babying ya like dis, non.” She says, wagging a finger at you. “She be expecting ya to pull yer weight where ya can an take care o her where it count.”

A few muted chuckles greet the comment- you walked into that one. Damnit.

Thankfully, past the one climb, the rest of the distance is relatively flat and stable- you and Merlin, tucked into the middle of the group, don't even have that much wind to bother you.

1/2

Brigitte pulls you up short again, and the group adopts an outward facing defensive posture while she hands you a set of binoculars and directs your gaze to a flight line- just barely visible in the rising snow squall.

“See dere?” She says, and you nod- looks like four Fandances, sitting on their chocks, a fuel truck pulled up next to them. “Whatcha tink, baron?”

You watch for a minute, then hand the binoculars off to Merlin, who looks for a while, then shrugs.

“T-Third one in line.” She says, quietly. “I-It has tanks fitted, w-we'll need the fuel i-if anything happens.”

“The first one has adders on the rails.” You point out. “Might be useful if we get in a fight, and it could help the nerds at china lake with countermeasures if we brought a couple back intact.”

“M-maybe.” Merlin says, handing Brigitte back her Binoculars. “B-but without f-fuel we'll have to go for T-tokachi, a-and we won't have a-any dogfight endurance.”

You shrug- so far, that's the plan anyway, but she's got a point. If you do have to get into a defensive fight, you're going to be really limited without fuel, given how far you have to fly. But with the long-range adders, you might be able to avoid a fight altogether.

[x] We’ll steal the third one back, Merlin's right, the fuel's more valuable to us.

“Third one back it is, then.” You say, nodding. “You're right, the fuel is gonna be more valuable.”

Merlin nods, happy you agree, and Brigitte mirrors it, then stands up. “We don' wan' ta be jus taking it yet.” She says, quietly. “De security troops here, dey might have a problem wid ya trying ta take off wid one 'o deir planes. De girls, dey gonna make sure no one be bothering ya, an takin care of de rest of our mission.”

You nod, and she continues. “But you an me an 'mantha and Amber, we gonna go find us a nice quiet place ta hold up.”

You nod again as the rest of the witches look back. “We'll sit tight for one hour.” Brigitte says, her voice still low, even against the howling wind. “Over in dat hangar ovah dere.” She points, indicating one near the four Fandances.

The rest of the team nods and moves off into the storm, weapons up, while you and Merlin follow Brigitte, with Amber, the squad's sniper, following you two, her rifle still in it's bag and an XM4 up and sweeping.

The base is relatively compact and quiet- the only thing really out of the ordinary, you think, are the two outsized hangars along the other side of the flight line. Both of them are closed up, their contents hidden behind their doors, but they're both big enough, you think, to hold a jumbo jet easily. Either that or a whole squadron of Fandances, which makes you kind of nervous.

1/2

The hangar Brigitte's chosen is smaller, and it's dark inside, with the rear hall holding some plastic drums of fluid- hydraulic, maybe?- and a few scattered boxes of tools or parts. The hangar floor sits empty, and the offices along the rear are all dark- a good sign.

Brigitte motions for you to follow her up a set of stairs in the back, to a loft area containing a few tables and some folding chairs, stacked along a wall. She looks around and nods, apparently satisfied, while Amber takes a position near a window, though she doesn't open it.

“Dis be de worst part.” Brigitte says. “We gotta wait for dem ta be doin deir job, den we get you to de fighter and off de ground.”

You nod. “Should we change?”

She grins. “I was tinkin ya'd never ask. I tink ya can have some privacy if ya be goin in de inside corner over dere, but maman can't promise she don't want ta watch.”

[] Ah, that's fine, I can change right here, Merlin's probably going to want the privacy anyway.

I take a slice of the chocolate cake, and place it on a plate. It definitely qualifies as gourmet. Thick layers of chocolate with shavings and icing in between, topped with a cherry on every slice. I swipe a piece of the cake with my finger and bring the delicacy to Merlin's eager lips. She wraps around it like a mollusk as she slowly tastes the folds of the cake, savoring every sensation of the flavor. Her eyes begin to water as I jackhammer the cake to the murky depths of her mouth, like a crude Caribbean diver striving harder each time to reach the bed of oysters and pearls therein, as she passionately takes in more and more of the slice of cake, letting it fill her with pleasure, as if her sanity itself was slowly being lost to the tsunami of warm and fuzzy feelings brought forth by the chocolate cake. I slowly pull the fork out of Merlin, her small lips clamped shut around my finger as if they were a mollusk, but even as I leave, her tongue excitedly flicks across my fingertip, caressing it in Merlin's love of chocolate cake, as she searches for more of the cake she craves so much.

[x] Ah, that's fine, I can change right here, Merlin's probably going to want the privacy anyway.

You grin and shrug, setting your flight bag on the floor and reaching up to unzip the heavy field jacket you're wearing. “Ah, that's fine.” You say, pulling it off and throwing it on the table. “I can change right here, Merlin's probably going to want the privacy anyway.”

Merlin, watching you wide-eyed, nods and hurries off to the corner- you're not sure if she's moving that quick because she doesn't want to watch, or because she does.

The second possibility bothers you more.

“Oh my.” Brigitte responds, at least half-turning, to give the pretense she isn't watching with rapt attention. “Baron, ya be spoilin me now.”

“I can't say I mind much either.” Amber says from her spot near the window.

You ignore them, pulling out your issued- and damnably sterile- flight suit. While you're pretty sure it wouldn't matter much, what with you being as much of a known element as you are, you figure things like this are stock and trade for the special forces types, and so accepted it without much complaint.

Brigitte whistles when you change undershirts- and you see Amber's eyes get wider at the patchwork mess of scars still covering your side.

“Was that Tanana?” She asks, turning back to looking out of her window as she does. You nod.

“Yeah.” You say, nodding, zipping up the flight suit over the clean undershirt.

1/2

“She's amazing, then.” She says. “We'd heard you'd been healed by Georgette Mackintosh, but I never thought she'd be that good.”

You shrug. “She kept me breathing, so I'm kinda biased in her favor.” You say with a grin, pulling on your survival vest and clipping on a thigh board, then reaching down to wind your scarf, another present from Georgette, around your neck and into the top of your flight suit.

You finish about the same time as Merlin, who's wearing a full flight suit as well. Without information on the nature of the interface for witches in the Fandance- if there is one at all- you both figured the pantsless version would be pointless, and a good way to get cold.

The two of you then pack your clothes into compression bags and hand them off to Brigitte, who 'pockets' them, dropping them in one of the small cargo compartments along her strikers. She nods at you and motions to the chairs, looking at her watch. “We be havin a few minutes.” She says. “You ready?”

You laugh. “It's a little late to back out now, isn't it?” You ask, grinning at her.

She nods. “Oui, dat it be, but dat don't mean ya can't be nervous, no.” She says. “Be thinkin 'o de girls back home, maybe, or dat ya on ya own out dere, can't no one help ya if ya get in trouble.”

You shrug.

[x] Honestly, I've just been thinking about our route and the weather. I'll see the girls back home soon enough.

“Honestly,” You say, looking over at her, “I've just been thinking about our route and the weather. I'll see the girls back home soon enough.”

“An I'm plenty sure dey anxious ta see ya too.” Brigitte says with a grin.

“Oh, no doubt. We've been gone longer than the three days you asked for.” You say, grinning back at her. “You trying to steal us away all for yourself?”

Brigitte laughs. “ah, ya caught me. Maman, she just can't resist, non? She be wantin de baron all ta herself, just like you be sayin.”

You both laugh at that, but it's cut short at Amber's hissed warning. “Movement!” She says, tracking with her rifle. “Can't tell who it is, not in this mess.”

“Count?” Brigitte asks, all business. “Baron, ya and Sammy, ya be 'gettin over dere behind dat wall." She says, pointing near the corner where Merlin changed.

"Seven." Amber says, a second after the two of you move. "Looks like it's the rest of them."

"S-seven?" Merlin asks you, quietly, looking up at you, questioningly. You shrug and put a finger to your lips- stay quiet, see what's going on.

"Bon. I be goin down ta meet dem. Ya be stayin up here wid de baron." Brigitte says, stalking down the stairs while Amber shifts to cover them.

A minute passes- two- and then Brigitte calls up from the bottom of the steps. "Amber, we be ready ta go."

You see her nod and she motions towards you and Merlin- you follow her down.

At the bottom of the stairs, the SEAL witches stand- joined by two figures, bags over their heads and their hands secured behind their backs with two pairs of plastic flex cuffs- both of their figures distinctly female.

"What-" You start, and Brigitte shakes her head.

"It be none 'o yer concern, baron." She says, kind of forcefully.

While it's generally a good idea, in this case their entire mission is to get us into one of them shiny new aeroplanes. They scrub their own mission if they fuck with us. Not saying it's ideal, but we've got something of a bubble

>>36848007
It's called "need to know", where people are only told the relevant parts of the mission.

Also, since when did taking prisoners of war become so surprising? It literally happens in every fucking war ever. Frank, as a member of the armed forces, should fucking know this.

Just put it on this way:
Those two females are obviously living, and as long as the SEALs keep it that way we better to not ask too many question now.
We do need to ask about it later, after we on safety.

>>36848132
>We do need to ask about it later

No, no we don't. Not our job, not our place to be doing.

>>36848129

>>36848166
So, they could send them off to the CIA for the works and you wouldn't care? Because "it's no our job"? That literally goes against everything Frank has done so far.

>>36848132
>We do need to ask about it later, after we on safety.
We don't 'need' to do anything, it's not our concern and not our job.
>>36848007
Sorry, miss-understood what you said.

you guys forget that Frank is a guardian of witches

>>36848199
...Not really? Like, I don't think that issue has come up at all for Frank. And they don't call him the Butcher for nothing.

>>36848247
WHITE KNIGHTS, I SUMMON THEE

>>36848199
Do you think they'd truthfully tell us what happened to them? Also if we're playing the 'they could' game then they could them over to ONI or the NSA or DIA. They could also take them to a pro-bowl game and get them hamburgers with the works.

>>36848252
He's called the Butcher by his enemies because they try to fight him in the air.

He himself mentioned he was uncomfortable about killing witches when he they tried to ambush him/

>>36848247
"Woman" doesn't translate automatically to witch.
"Held by flexcuffs" definitely doesn't translate to witch.
They're probably technicians or engineers.

>>36848199
Yep. Some things just aren't our business.

>>36848270
all im trying to state is frank has some ground to ask who that is and why they are taking them

>>36848297

Yes, of course, because Frank has been a model of "Just doing my job" up until this point.

>>36848294

highly likely...

these systems probably have some safeguards in them. we'd probably need them to activate the fandance we're lifting from this base and then bring them home to fully figure out what makes them tick.

>>36848372
Frank hasn't been on foot surrounded in enemy territory much up until this point either.

>>36848370
This.
Frank at least will try to ask Maman what the deal with these two.

>>36848294
Last time I checked we weren't pants on head retarded though.

>>36848401
>>36848370
Refer to this >>36848294
We don't know if they are witches or not.

>>36848403
Are you saying they can't be Engineers or Techs?

>>36848399

Precisely.

>>36848390

If they're related to the operation of the plane, then I'm pretty sure that does count as part of our end of the mission, which we do need to know about.

Though, more to the point, I do feel like Frank (who hasn't been trained for this black ops shit) would not necessarily shut his gob about this sort of thing.

>>36848457
I'm saying its more than likely not.

>>36848478
But isn't Fronk already flying a bleeding-edge, classified fighter aircraft? Shouldn't he already understand "need-to-know"?

>>36848478
>Though, more to the point, I do feel like Frank (who hasn't been trained for this black ops shit) would not necessarily shut his gob about this sort of thing.
Yeah, this I can see. I'm confident that Frank won't seem too retarded one way or the other when the post falls

>>36848478
No, he's just the pilot of the most advanced testbed aircraft in the world. If he couldn't keep his mouth shut by that point, he would quickly be forced to.

>>36848478
>who hasn't been trained for this black ops shit
You don't have to be trained to hear or read things about black ops shit and everyone knows 'need-to-know'.

>>36848502
>>36848528

I mean, not discussing the specs of your plane (which at this point, Frank probably doesn't completely understand himself) is different then "what's this black bag shit nobody told me about, and how do you know I don't need to know?"

>>36848537
I just get the feeling that there are numerous things here about which Frank might want some clarification

>>36848457
Whether our captive is witches or not is not really my point at all.

My point is Frank will curious about these two, smart enough to not question it now in hostile territory but might want to some thing cleared after dust settled. Or at least attempt to ask at any rate.

[x] Let it go. She's right, it's none of our concern.

You nod, letting it go- she's right, it is none of your concern, afterall.

"Everyting ready?" Brigitte asks- one of the other witches nods.

"Everything's ready, it's all set to command detonate. We already took out all the radars and dealt with the duty shack." Kim says, Looking around. "Once they're off the ground, we can create our distraction and exfil, no problem."

"Bon." Brigitte says. "Alright Baron, let's go. 'bout time for us ta be partin ways."

You nod, and she cuts out Kim and Melody to help her- the three of them escort you to the Fandance.

The base is still silent, and the Fuel truck is nowhere to be found- though you do notice the runway lights are off and the tower is dark.

You do a preflight walkaround- Brigitte hassles you about the necessity and how much time it's taking, but she doesn't try and stop you. As unfamiliar as the fighter is, all you can do is look for the standard things- the intakes are clear, the joints all look ok, you don't see any obvious fluid leaks. You tap the side of one of the external tanks with a knuckle and it rings full, a welcome sound.

Climbing in the cockpit, You're forced to take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the controls- you can only just barely read Cyrillic script, but you'd lucked out in that a dossier had been prepared by the nerds in the intel shops, based on recovered wreckage. It also helps that you have Merlin behind you.

"Ya ready to go, Baron?" Brigitte asks, sounding kind of impatient over the wind. "We been out here too long, we need ta get goin ourselves."

1/2

You nod, giving her the thumbs up as Merlin, sitting in back, starts up the plane's internal APU and begins bringing it all online.

Brigitte grins. "See ya back in de states. De runway be yours, Baron." And she fires you a salute- one you return, before toggling the canopy switch.

"Ok, starting them up now." Merlin says, and lights up the big turbofans behind you. They turn on with a whining chuckle, but they quickly smooth out into a roar and you begin rolling.

"Watch our traction, Frank." Merlin warns. "And careful with the snow."

You don't take much time to respond- and don't waste any time lining up, instead pushing the twin throttles forward until the red lights located near each lights up- the A/B lights, you assume. The Fandance practically leaps into the air, it's takeoff roll shorter than the wyvern's.

"We're up!" Merlin calls, unnecessarily. "Gear up, annnndddd..... we're good. No air defense systems tracking us, no warnings on the air defense network." She says. "Where are we headed?"

Let see how long the plan goes as planned.

It's also were any support beyond tankers will be, since because if we get bounced right before we get to Shemya we might get rightly fucked.

>>36848632
>[] Tokachi, It's our primary and where we're expected.

So do we ask Bridgette about what were those two once we get back?

>>36848727
I'd be keen.

>>36848632
[] Tokachi, It's our primary and where we're expected.

>>36848727

No, we let it go completely and will never speak of it again, ever, nor will it ever be relevant again.

Rolled 7 (1d10)

>Roll 1D10 for no-problem ride, need 5 or lower.

>>36848727
We at least should try.

>>36848632
>[x] Shemya. We barely have the fuel for it, but it won't have as many soviet installations between us and there.

We have extra fuel, might as well use it

>>36848727

i'll be up for that

there just wasnt any point arguing in enemy territory.

>>36848727
No, not our concern. Also why ask a question that at best you'll get a non-answer to?

>>36848727
I think so, yea

>>36848727
Why?

>>36848727
i would like to know

>>36848783

Because Chekhov's Gun

>>36848727
Nah

>>36848750
Somehow, I doubt that will be the case.

>>36848865

I was being sarcastic.

Not that you could tell from the update

M13 GMC sucks....

>>36849281
grant and lee are my best US tanks

RAMMING SPEED!!!

>>36849269
You don't have to respond to a post made half an hour ago. And I don't blame you for playing WT. I'm just waiting for my tankfu to come out.

>>36849310
tier two/three US tanks are crazy

get the 105 sherman last unless you want to go to tier three right away!

>>36849289
I got the M2A4 Calvary version, its going to take me forever to get that maxed out.

>>36849330
have they released the next tiers yet? I played the day the patch came out, and was very upset when I finished all the Tier 1 research only to have it say YOU MAY GO NO FURTHER

>all of this talk about WT GF
Too bad i am way too invested on other tank game.

>>36849349
They've got T2 at least - I keep seeing Shermans getting pitted against Panzer IIs.

BR needs adjusting a bit.

[x] Tokachi, It's our primary and where we're expected.

You decide to make for Tokachi- while Shemaya might be a quieter route, Tokachi is where you're expected, and it probably isn't a great idea to be making last-second corrections to a mission like this, even if the leeway had been given to you in the breifing.

Turning south, you pass close enough to the base to see the control tower enveloped in a fireball- the witches setting off their demolition charges to interrupt activities there, at least for the time being. You note that the other three Fandances you saw on the tarmac are already on fire, columns of smoke climbing into the sky. It'll attract attention, but you guess it was necessary, even if just to cover your presence there.

You pass feet wet over the sea of Okhotsk west of the city of Magadan, with Merlin quiet behind you. It's going well- you've stayed low, and now out over the sea, You'll be entering an area where friendly fighters can aid you.

Which is why it was no surprise when something went wrong. "Frank, We're being tracked." Merlin warns you. "Mig-31s, by the radar signature, and there's something big out there backing them, maybe a Mainstay, I can't tell yet." She warns. "They're Accelerating to intercept."

"How long?" You ask.

"If they've got AA-9s, they'll be in range in two minutes. If it's AA-13s, maybe three minutes." She warns.

[] Try to outrun them! You don't know what the Fandance tops out at, but you're willing to bet it's no slouch.
[] Turn and engage! If you can deal with these guys before anyone else shows up, you'll be home free.

>>36849357
WT is so better

>>36849380

Fandances are a hell of a lot more maneuverable than foxhounds, let's take advantage of that.

>>36849380

Outrunning MiG-31s? Not gonna happen.

MIG-31s are interceptors. Outrunning them is not likely to be a good option.

Also with a good fuel load, we have room to tango.

>>36849393
Yeah, it's amazing, having tanks that turn like they're fucking ice skaters.

>>36849380
>[] Try to outrun them! You don't know what the Fandance tops out at, but you're willing to bet it's no slouch.

this is why i voted for going the other place

>>36849380
unless we have our cannon, better run for now.
>[] Try to outrun them! You don't know what the Fandance tops out at, but you're willing to bet it's no slouch.

>>36849393
I like WT air force at any rate, and like i said i am way invested too much on other tank game.

Specifications (MiG-31)
Maximum speed:
High altitude: Mach 2.83 (3,000 km/h, 1,860 mph)[5]
Low altitude: Mach 1.2 (1,500 km/h, 930 mph)
Cruise speed: 2500 km/h (supersonic, Mach 2.35)

outrunning is not likely to be possible.

>>36849421
I like the fact that it doesn't have a healthbar

also multi-gun systems

>>36849380
>[] Turn and engage! If you can deal with these guys before anyone else shows up, you'll be home free.

>>36849471
Hmm, how many sherman variants WT have?

>>36849491
Still in Tier 1 in the tanks, so can't tell you

>>36849380
>>[x] Turn and engage! If you can deal with these guys before anyone else shows up, you'll be home free.
>>36849449 makes a good point. Still, getting into a fight with multiple bogies in an unfamiliar plane with no wing-men is definitely gonna be tough.

>>36849471
I don't know about you, but I like knowing how much damage I'm doing to my enemies. Damn the realism, I just want to have fun, and I had more fun with WoT and WoWp than with WT.

>>36849491
M4A1, 105, Jumbo, and I think an E8

also the WT devs might put in jeeps and shit in the future

>>36849380
>[X] Turn and engage! If you can deal with these guys before anyone else shows up, you'll be home free.

Foxhound maneuver like pighound

>>36849516
You can tell the damage you are doing in arcade at the very least. That argument just went right out the door.
Also
>liking WoWP
I'm flabbergasted. I didn't know people like you existed.

>>36849516
I like the realism, the different shell types are interesting in tanks

>>36849380
>[x] Try to outrun them! You don't know what the Fandance tops out at, but you're willing to bet it's no slouch.

If the Wyvern can do Mach 2.9 and the Fandance is suppose to be equal or better on paper then we can probably go fast enough to atleast get to where friendlies can aid us. Got the Wyvern's speed from thread S2E6.

>>36849548
They are rare but exist.
Even Wargaming gives up on that game and concentrate on WoWs.

Still i think i gonna stick with WoT for tank and WT for planes for now. Ki-45 is quite nice if not slow.

>>36849564
Thanks, I was wondering about that.

>>36849564

you're expecting a russian jet to match the merlin-wyvern.

Not just a wyvern, THE merlin-wyvern.

>>36849491
9: M4, M4A1, M4A1 (76) W, M4A2, M4A2 (76) W, M4A3 (105), M4A3 (76), W, M4A3E2, M4A3E2 (76) W
Plus the Soviet Lend-lease M4A2, and the Captured German M4

>>36849380
>[] Try to outrun them! You don't know what the Fandance tops out at, but you're willing to bet it's no slouch.
we don't have any weapons but the internal cannon, and we're unfamiliar with this aircraft.

>>36849380
>[x] Try to outrun them! You don't know what the Fandance tops out at, but you're willing to bet it's no slouch.

>>36849613

and how many tank i should passed to get my hand on them?

It was better until they decided to ruin the mixed battle system, now the leading team will always have the lead because they get respawns and planes

>>36849629
You just need to grind the M2, and the M3 Lee

>>36849603
Again it doesn't need to be as quick or quicker then our Wyvern, it just needs to move fast enough to put more time between us and the Foxhounds so we can get into airspace that the Japs can help us in.

>>36849491
The plan is for a ton.

>>36849636
Yea, I'm not sure it was worth it to add planes to arcade

>>36849629
At minimum,
M2A4 -> M3/M3A1 Stuart -> M3 Lee
However I'd recommend going through all the American tier 1s, which adds
M2 Medium, and M13 MGC

>>36849677
Too bad all of the T1 american tanks are horrendously bad. The AA is pretty nice, expecially compared to the Skdf and the russian truck AA

>[] Turn and engage! If you can deal with these guys before anyone else shows up, you'll be home free.
We can beat them in a fight. But they're interceptors. Chances are they can catch us.

>>36849731
again the lee can take hits like crazy in my case

>>36849731
Compared to the Panzer II/38(t) shitshow, the Yank Tanks aren't bad. At least their guns can penetrate the enemy worth a damn.

The pintle MG on the Yank reserve tank is brilliant for air defence. Crazy traverse speed.

>>36849760
Except on it's sides, I just took out two with my M2A4

>>36849760
Only from a few angles. The left side of the lee is hilariously easy.

>>36849769
That's two light tanks versus an entire tier. And at least the 38t can turn, unlike the american tanks which are more like a cannonball.

>>36849731
>Horrendously bad
Have we been playing the same game? The reserve M2 is a fucking formula 1 car with a gun good enough to pen both the T-26 and the Pz II at any range, the M2 medium is fucking invulnerable to all threats when at long range, the Lee is the first tank in the game to get a Long 75mm gun, the AA has two .50 rape machines, and literally the only mediocre tank is the Stuarts, with it's 37mm starting to feel inadequate when shooting at IVs at long range.
