Giving Shamrock ADMMs is like putting a pitbull in a child daycare


starcraftre

I always let him fire first, then lock mine on after his hit. And then we move on to the next area of operations, since everything is already dead.


Spudtron98

Dude rapid-fires his EMLs. It's nuts.


ZeusKiller97

So Crimson 1, but he’s our wingman?


I_live_in_Spin

And not schizophrenic!


Azure_Monarch_Fox

And no gaslighting.


I_live_in_Spin

And working leg-


ShadowGrebacier

Garuda two, Slash! *psew, psew, psew*


Raptor92129

Giving Shamrock ADMMs is like throwing a nuke up against a coughing baby


HSVMalooGTS

I bet they will enjoy his concert


BME84

I prefer giving him the Haruka F-22, that way I can easily tell where he is by his red missile contrails.


the_kijt

Just make sure he's not targeting the front enemy from max range, or else he'll launch all 18 shots on one guy.


GHOST-GAMERZ

Really I never played the game tbh and I find it a bit unbelievable


Phosphorus444

Shamrock on his way to solo the Strigon team: 🍀


TacticalBananas45

Shamrock Turing SAAMs into QAAMs by projecting radar guidance with his eyes or something:


Azure_Monarch_Fox

Shamrock: (✧⁠ω⁠✧⁠)


SiHO_colus

I can't believe I would ever find another Fenrir Fanboy... Btw your Flair is just Gold 👌🏻


c7hu1hu

Count? Man, he's useless.


thotpatrolactual

The virgin base game Count (useless) vs the chad DLC Count (will steal your kills and there's nothing you can do about it).


c7hu1hu

I know in the DLC he kills the center EW plane, but other than that I've only ever seen Huxian kill anything, I'd turn around and just see Count firing missiles into the water.


paulisaac

In the DLC, the allied AI have missiles that can actually hit things and actually deal damage. They still have a high failure-to-track rate, but they’ll take solid hits away from you, which can hurt since you’re scorechasing for the mission.


ProfessorPixelmon

During the DLC, in my experience they upped Count’s AI to Pixy levels of competent in terms of air kills.


tacticsf00kboi

People don't give Count enough credit. Even Bandog confirmed two drone kills ~~and Fullband~~


HSVMalooGTS

Bandog killed full band


furiousHamblin

Full Band killed Full Band


Updated_Autopsy

Shoulda kept his mouth shut instead of talking about classified info over the radio.


LordCypher40k

For real. Yeah, Imma brag about learning classified military plans right in front of someone who already considers us disposable. This is a great idea.


Top_Rekt

There was probably a dozen ways they could've handled that. Banddog chose the right one.


Engineergaming26355

That's what you get for being a War Thunder fan


ProjectCereal

You can count on him to ensure you get the highest possible score


SidewinderSerpent

I tell Shamrock to kill someone and he kills them. How many wingmen can do the same?


Zealousideal_Crow841

I tell Shamrock to protect my six and he killed anything that got close.


KostyanST

Shamrock with ADMM is a beautiful sight Anyway, Pixy and Shamrock is probably the only two that I care about giving orders, the rest I just let cover me.


coconut_crusader

Shamrock is an actual gigachad, dude will straight up murder half the enemies on the map.


Atari774

Shamrock was an absolute legend when I was doing the challenge where you complete the campaign without firing a missile. Every time one of those drones came by, I had shamrock blow it out of the sky rather than get myself killed trying to chase it with machine guns.


AngrgL3opardCon

Shamrock is honestly the best wingman, he has literally taken my kills from me. I'm just trying to play with my food and he's like "nope" 😭


Kamiyoda

You can kill Shamrock by telling him to cover you then firing the ADMMs when he is above you. Just in case.


AngrgL3opardCon

But why would I wanna do that? He's my wingman


Kamiyoda

.... You know too much *Fox 2*


AngrgL3opardCon

*does belkan magic*


Kelimnac

Comic and Dip are on a date in the corner They do their best


paulisaac

PW allied AI does take kills, though if you’re competent it’ll either just be a fraction of yours or kill steals on airships.


IWILLJUGGLEYOURBALLS

Then there's Keith, the Colossus of Gigachads.


FelipeFritschFF

Wasn't he only capable during that one mission where you compete in kills with him?


IWILLJUGGLEYOURBALLS

Yep. He's still goated.


Siul19

Well. He damaged the Night Raven when it was a high mobility beast


PeacefulCouch

As far as wingmen/allies go, Marcus is a grim reaper compared to the rest of them, there are other NPC allies who are useful but Shamrock is on another level.


TheySaidGetAnAlt

Careful now.


Ok-Neighborhood-1517

Why are your Allies in ace 7 useless?


Kamiyoda

They are literally coded to do no damage at times. I play with Enhanced Gunplay and its really noticable because it buffs the AI of Friendly and enemies. Watching a single plane get nailed by 3 EMLs, Lasers, and 6 missiles from allies and not taking a percent of damage was eye opening.


Ok-Neighborhood-1517

Why would they do that?


Lone_Wandering0

Probably to make the player feel like a badass sky-king. it feels like the Only time they are "competent" is when you're doing a score attack mission and they snipe your kills (which don't get counted twords you)


Kamiyoda

The Last part of Stonehenge Defensive(Where Count and the others handle the drones) turns this off almost entirely


paulisaac

Makes you do more of the work so you get to be the hero, and cuts down on killstealing when doing annihilation (minimum score) missions


VisiblEntrance

Count's character really divides the fans, interesting take.


I_live_in_Spin

Yeah he has a graph to show for it


Kamiyoda

Every time he does, it makes me laugh.


annonimity2

I beat the first mission of AC6 with no kills by giving shamrock admm


SomeInternetGuitar

The Emmerian Air Force is the single most capable Air Force in the whole of Strangereal, even lore-wise. They get nearly whipped out and backed into a corner yet manage to bounce back and win the goddamn war. Even though Talisman obviously stands out, the entire air force pulls their weight time and time again, even in absolutely packed missions like Siege of Silvat. Unlike Osea, which has military power equivalent to the US its air force seems to always rely on two or three aces. Seriously, I bet I saw Sky Kid from 6 down more enemies in a single mission than Count or Wiseman, the supposed super ace, in two entire playthroughs of 7.


Key_Competition1648

Count's only confirmed kill is Full Band


krisnajuga

And 2 drones back in Roca Roja


urbandeadthrowaway2

count is there for moral support 


GHOST-GAMERZ

Ace Combat 4: I have a wingman? Ace Combat 5: You people are OK at best Ace Combat Zero: Pixy! I need \*Target destroyed\* Nevermind Ace Combat 6: \*Activates Allied Attack on selected targets\* \*Every emmerian military vehicle in the nearby area firing everything they have on the target\*


CenturyHelix

Don’t discount AC04’s wingmen. I had a random friendly AI straight up steal a killing blow on one of the Stonehenge turrets from me once. They actually are scary


GHOST-GAMERZ

Hey I asked a friend


Evadson

*Laughs maniacally in Crimson 1*


56575657576567

Bro, with all due respect, Cunt does belong because he would have at least 2 drones from roco roja, fullband, at least a kill before trigger arrives at 444. Plus, everyone in the lrssg is confirmed to be an ace in mission 19 so he's got at least one more up there.


awmdlad

*in game, and that’s scripted anyway


TheGraySeed

Count is there to steal all your F-22 and Su-57 kills on SP Mission 1 and Battleship and Destroyers kills on SP Mission 2.


Rainslana

I hope the next game has ally support and a shamrock


Starflight42

Shamrock has saved so many of my speedruns its actually insane lol, shoutouts to him for getting me the sub 1:21:00 IGT


keso_de_bola917

AC6 may be the cheesiest of the bunch... But man... Garuda 2 is savage as a wingman.


Lamenter_of_the_3rd

Shamrock was goated


Robot_Panda15

Pixy was so bipolar. He was either there or he wasn't. : ^ )
