Starting an air battle-tank arcade games
Hi,
In tank arcade games, sometimes when I have enough points to get a plane, i try to hit the button but it tells me I need to start an air battle. How exactly do I start an air battle?

You can only start an air battle in an attacker or bomber. Fighters can only participate in battles that will be starting.

As for getting to start it that's more of a timing thing. If there's a battle already on you can try to time it for when the current battle is over and hit the number button (usually 8 for attacker and 9 for bomber? I think) or do what most people do and mash on the button while you wait and hopefully you will be the person to start the air battle.

Be warned though when you're in the air battle your tank will be parked wherever you were when the countdown to the battle is over. You usually get 10 or so seconds after it says "player is starting an air battle in a bomber/attacker", so make sure your tank is safe from enemy fire.

Alright, so theres not necesserily something you need to do along with pressing the number button, you just gotta time it?
