When you see the satisfaction of the Red Cross of Death after firing a heavy flak across the map.
When you see it arcing arcing arcing and the enemy is strafing away and it lands right at the tip of the engines and you see their splinters spew out at max speed...even moonshine won't save you now.
When your flak fires first but then you hear the mercury fire...and the merc shots lands JUST before your flak. Spire from full to dead in 0.1 seconds.
And just as satisfying but not as hard to do ... when you patiently wait for the exact moment to ram a lochnagar into their hull at point blank range.
When you hear your captain incredulously question whether you just killed them blind through a dust storm at 1.5k.
I am still not very good at the heavy flak, but it is by far my favorite gun in the game. Unlike even a lumberjack, your shots are slower than a moonshining squid, every shot is 5+ seconds of holding your breath, only 2 attempts per clip, lesmok is for sissies...and that giant red cross, my god that giant red cross vindicating you.
And it's a gun that is completely useless without crew teamwork...the epitome of the guns of icarus ideal!
I think hit crosses should scale linearly with damage. Lochnagar flak should fill the entire screen so the entire world knows how much you destroyed them =D
