    I've also retried to download fionn6-10.zip, but the same problem occurs. That didn't happen the first time I (succesfully) downloaded Fion6-10.

    Hope this helps! Anyway, thanks for the support and quick answering!

    Ps. Great Website!!!

    It's only natural.

    After all, if that AAR is up, it's for you to enjoy it.

    So I couldn't really NOT care huh?!

    :D

    I've tried to download those files again and it just work so I wouldn't know what the problem is.

    Hadn't heard from someone else if this is also the case for them.

    In any case, it doesn't help you much if it's working for the rest of the bunch and not for you...

    So drop me a mail at marcel.vie@wanadoo.fr and tell me what's your upper limit and I'll mail you the files.

    Thanks for your feedback and appreciation of my work...

    Yeah I guess that's why some people turn sour after a trouncing by Fionn (please note that this is NOT the case for The_Capt here).

    I mean, when you buy that much firepower to have it obliterated just like that is pretty much frustrating.

    :D

  3. Eek a Challenge!

    This time Warren, please remember to take notes as it will make the next AAR even more educational if both of you are commenting it.

    As for all of you who have been eagerly waiting for turns 6 to 10, they're UP!!!

    Now it's a little tricky so pay attention.

    Usually my updates are always on top of pages.

    But for an AAR it wouldn't make much sense to have turns going from the last to the first.

    So Turn 6 is after Turn 5.

    Annoying isn't it?

    :D

    He got killed because he was overconfident.

    Same for the Red Baron....

    This wasn't the case for the Red Baron, and I don't see evidence to support this for Wittman.

    The Red Baron was worn out. He got careless. He got suckered in to a low-flying chase over enemy lines, and worst of all, he forgot to check behind him - the first rule of airfighting. His demise was sealed by Australian gunners on the ground, but the fact that he didn't break off once Brown was on the scene kind of indicates, to me, as far as the evidence I've read will take us, that the Baron was simply careless.

    He had been fighting far too long, and he never recovered from his head wound.

    Or, if you prefer, his luck simply ran out.

    If Wittman was bagged at 800 metres by a Firefly, I am not sure how that leads one to the presumption he was overconfident. I would suspect that like Richtofen, he simply ran out of luck - the key ingredient an ace possesses, for if luck is against you, so is everything else.</font>

  5. Well it appears War Heroes can't be SIMPLY dead.

    Which proves my case.

    The Red Baron is just like Wittman.

    The shot which killed him is commonly believed to have come from Australian gunners on the ground (53rd TripleA IIRC), but is also widely said to have also come from the guns of Canadian flier Arthur "Roy" Brown.

    See?

    AP?

    Typhons?

    Flak?

    Fighter?

    You're right.

    Death is always a Drama.

    Unless it speaks with A VOICE LIKE THAT...

    :D

    But War Hereos and Idols just don't die like the rest.
