Opening a Fight
Up to this point, I have discussed fights that are already in progress. I have now come to the point in this article where I address initiating a fight. There are basically three ways a fight can begin in an EAW one-versus-one.


  • Coaltitude Merge
  • You start high
  • You start low

Coaltitude Merge
A coaltitude merge is generally a rare situation which occurs in one of a few ways.

  • You leave the multi-player setup screen to fly.
  • You collided with your opponent on the last fight.
  • You both augered on the last fight.
  • After winning the previous engagement, your plane was too heavily damaged to contemplate another fight in it. So, you bailed out.

There about five ways to open such a fight.

  • Straight in with blazing guns
  • Seize angles advantage
  • Barrel roll
  • Nose under and shoot
  • Blow through and climb
