Honoring one of our own.

Today our Staffelkapitan, Jizzo made his 40th kill flying our "Dead is Dead" campaign which we take pretty serious.  I was honored to be flying as his wingman in the InWar arena this afternoon and confirmed his kill.  Horrido!    He will receive this as his award from the Staffel.  Way to go....

Well it's a matter of semantics, but don't get confused with the Campaign aspect.  The German "campaign" in southern Russia is what we are currently pursuing.  "Dead is Dead" as taken from our website... Remember you are flying for the survival of your persona pilot.   Kills are important for achieving mission success and air superiority in addition to setting a good example for the effective skills of the Staffel. But remember, when your pilot is KIA, you start all over again. All achievements are wiped clean and you battle your way back to Victory.  However, the ultimate achievement is to balance mission success with survival in making good survival choices and extending the longevity of your persona pilot.  The immersion is the need to stay alive at all costs. This is the goal, for flying "Dead is Dead". Sometimes it takes more skill and fortitude to return to base then to rack up a bunch of kills. Many pilots did not achieve an air kill for extended periods of time but...lived to tell the story.

 

Air to Air Kills...will be counted as KIA

Flak Kills, will only be final if you have a die roll between 9-12.  For instance, you are scored as killed by flak but roll an 8....Your persona will continue.  Between 9 and 12 you are KIA.

Strafed on the tarmac and killed, Die roll, 9 thru 12, KIA.

Bailed out or ditched over enemy lines, you will be classified as captured if you roll between 9-12.

If you have a confirmation that you bailed/ditched in closer proximity to friendly troops you will also avoid capture.

Very impressive. The dead is dead idea is as close to reality as a virtual pilot can get.

Thank you very much for this Award and for your kind words there, Neun!

I am very proud to be part of 4./JG52 and hope we continue to have such a blast in the future.

Each and everyone from our Staffel deserves credit aswell, for keeping my six clear so efficiently.
