Welcome to all of the new pilots to Gunners Inc.!
You've been invited to join a very respected and respectable squad.
We are glad that you made the choice to join Gunners Inc.
We have a few rules that may or may not be easily found.
1) Gunners NEVER quit- finish the game, you may be outnumbered, you may be outgunned, you may be frustrated as he((, finish the game. What you lose in Deaths you gain in RESPECT
2) Respect other pilots- There are thousands of pilots in this game, many of them are excellent pilots, some of them might not be nice people, but we need to show respect to everyone, above and below your talent level.
3) Encourage your Squadmates- There will be games where other Gunners are in Red, cheer for your squadmate if he does something good in the game, use the in-game chat to let them (and others) know that Gunners stick together, even on opposite teams.
4) Play the GAME- Dogfight is divided into numerous mission games. In bombing games (Bomb the Base, Bomb the Carrier), keep your bombs as long as you can, unless defending your base or carrier. In capture games (flag or carrier) drop as soon as you are clear of other pilots. In Dogfight games, you have the option, if you are up against better pilots and need to drop to survive, do so. If you are against lower level pilots, keep your bomb(s) and challenge yourself. In Bombing missions, getting a TANK can be a big part of the game and can really change the game, however, there may be times when you are offered a tank in a previously off-limits area. If you've played, you have a good idea where "Enemy Territory" is. As Gunners, if you land in Enemy Territory and are offered the tank, do your best to fight the temptation to take it (there are exceptions, see below), this is known as a "Glitch" and is unfair to the other pilots in the game. Another no-go is Camping or Spawn-Killing, this is another unfair tactic that most will consider to be "Bad-Form" within the game.
5) Exceptions- Very rarely will Gunners "sink" to poor tactics. In these cases, we find ourselves in games against players that regularly take the Tank Glitch, spawn-kill, drop their bombs to gain an advantage, or sneak in an uneven game. Most pilots in Dogfight will not do these things, so we must be very selective if we retaliate in any way.
Gunners Inc. enjoys a good reputation as fair, hard-fighting, excellent pilots... most often the only thing that is remembered by other pilots about a game is that "The pilot from Gunners Inc. was kicking butt..." The name of the pilot is not always mentioned, but the squad name is.
Do your best to make the name of Gunners Inc. better every time you fly!
