00:00Hello everybody, and welcome to another episode of War Thunder.
00:03Now, as you can probably see from the scoreboard here, this is actually the Guardian Angel event.
00:08Not the one we just had, this was a much older one, the ones where the Germans generally did worse, although we did win this match.
00:18It was when the gunners had their quite good accuracy, I think, or it might have been just before it was increased a little bit.
00:27I can't quite remember, but it's quite an old recording. I'll have to find the date for when it was recorded.
00:33But as you can see, just in the ME410, just coming up onto Bomberstream, a little bit of chat about the Halton 229.
00:46Which is quite ironic, because now we do have the Halton 229.
00:53So, hopefully they'll add that into their own little event similar to this.
01:00One of the other things I wanted to talk about in this video, in case you missed it in my last video, is that I've gone back to university.
01:10That's why there hasn't been so many videos up lately. I am trying to get up as many as I can, I want to get at least one a week.
01:18But there will be a bit of a slowdown in how many videos I upload, which is one of the reasons I'm just going through the old videos.
01:29This one's quite short compared to some of my other videos, but I haven't really had time to record any new footage.
01:39So, going back through the old archive of what I've got, I'm probably going to skip, well, there's no point skipping now, we're only a few kilometers away.
01:50But yeah, that's why I didn't skip straight to the beginning of the battle, because I wanted to get that stuff out of the way.
01:54I'll try and get as many videos up as I can, but I can't make any promises. I'll try and get one a week though.
02:01We're just getting into the combat now. I hit the B-17, it didn't actually... oh, I knocked a gunner unconscious.
02:09I think you might have seen a bit of a... you know when you're shooting and you see it explode on the target and then it doesn't actually do anything.
02:18It's called sparkles, I think it's generally called on the forums.
02:21Now this beginning bit of the match I just did rubbish.
02:27You know, I just did awful. I mean, I got a few hits, but other than that I was just generally missing everything.
02:34But, you know, I've taken a bit of damage as well.
02:37I've only got a hit, I think I've got a Martel gunner, I can't really see because I'm doing this in Movie Maker and it's quite zoomed out.
02:45But yeah, I'm starting to get some hits on the enemy, but not really doing that much damage.
02:51Which is obviously, you know, unless I damage them enough to make them lose altitude, they're still going to reach their targets.
03:00But the rest of the team is doing well, we've wiped out some of the enemy bombers.
03:04The fighters aren't really interfering much.
03:10I'm sort of struggling to keep the Me-410 near the bomber formation because their right wing isn't really providing much lift.
03:19And it's obviously making things very hard for maneuvering.
03:23But I'm finally getting there, you can see B-17 falling out of the sky.
03:27This is when the... They'd recently patched it so if you could land on the airfield and get repaired it wouldn't count as a kill.
03:35So that's why it's not dead.
03:37That's actually quite important for the end bit of this because basically the last enemy aircraft is dead falling out of the sky.
03:45But because he's not actually dead, it doesn't count as a kill, well we couldn't really do anything about it.
03:53So now we're just trying to take out the last B-17, there's five of them.
03:56And this is where I start doing quite good, you can see I'm getting quite a few hits in now.
04:01You'll see the 50mm cannon not doing that good, I mean, I think this is with high explosive or a mix of high explosive and armor piercing.
04:10Now I've got the kill, well I didn't get the kill but I've shot him down.
04:14Got the kill there, just trying to come up on the last B-17 in front of us.
04:22Got another critical hit and knocked his tail off.
04:24So I've shot down three aircraft, only got the kill for one but basically shot down three aircraft.
04:32So we're trying to get in a position to shoot at this one, which isn't really working.
04:40I tried to shoot with my tail gun but I couldn't find out where it was.
04:44That's in it and I got the kill for my other aircraft.
04:47I'm not sure if I got the third kill, I think I might have but I can't quite remember.
04:51But yeah, I'm quite sharp by this point.
04:55The engines are quite damaged, I'm leaking fuel.
04:59Well no, it's so near the end of the game, it's not like I'm going to run out.
05:06It might have just been the B-17 falling quite near to us.
05:10So we're just chatting to some of the other team, or some of the rest of the guys in the team.
05:14We weren't sure where the last B-17 was because obviously where they weren't dying properly,
05:21it was making things rather complicated.
05:24So we're just searching for that last B-17.
05:29So I'm just trying to get down nearer to the ground because I'm expecting that's where
05:39he'll be.
05:40Plus I can't really climb anymore due to the damage to my aircraft.
05:43I think I'm about to lose my right engine.
05:50Going quite fast and climbing a little bit.
05:52I don't know if I'm...
05:53No, I'm diving now.
05:54I wasn't sure what I'd been intending to do, I was just trying to change some of the engine
06:01settings.
06:02Actually, I don't know if it was to do with one of the patches, but that doesn't seem
06:06to be working anymore.
06:08The controls for it seem to have gone a bit weird.
06:10And there's the last kill.
06:13Mission objective failed.
06:14I don't know why, but this mission seems to be glitched in that the objective never actually...
06:24You win the game, but it comes up as a fail.
06:26I don't really get what that's all about.
06:32So we won that game, pretty much.
06:35Just waiting for the scoreboard to go down now.
06:37You'll see in a second what my actual score was.
06:40It was pretty good, I got Terror of the Sky, bulletproof.
06:44So two very good awards there.
06:51Just skipping the loading screen.
06:52Game number one.
06:53Terror of the Sky, I know one's for shooting down the most enemy aircraft, and I think
06:58Terror of the Bulletproof is for shooting down the most aircraft, getting the most air
07:03kills as well.
07:04I did lose in the aircraft and destroyed more air targets for Bulletproof, and destroyed
07:08the most air targets for Terror of the Sky.
07:10So I did very well there.
07:12You can see I've got 3,500 RP, 32,000 lions, 3 kills, quite a few critical hits.
07:20Yeah, I did really good in that match.
07:22So yeah, just a quick match it was today, or quick video.
07:25Sorry I haven't been able to put anything more substantial up, but like I said, because
07:29of university, I haven't got as much time.
07:34Thank you for watching.
