cannon range: game vs reallife

TRC Thank you!!! Those were some good fights the last few nights.

And for the record I was going for convergance not effectiveness. While it would be nice to know their effective range... getting really close to my target before shooting has taken that part out of the equation.

Yeah, I forget who said it, but I remember reading a top WW2 ace advising to get as close as you think you can get without crashing, then get even closer before you open fire.

That's my rule now.... If I think I'm too close I get closer! That little change in tactics has done wonders for my game. I went from 2 to 3 kills a game to 6+. Though you have to be careful as to avoid the falming wreck you jsut created.

My problem is actually getting behind the person to get the shot away in the first place.
