War Storm! A new strategic AvA game  



This will be a rolling map campaign that begins Friday June 3rd and runs through Thursday June 16Th.

Players will determine when the setup changes by winning the battle.

Victory won't be based on field capture, but on a combination of strategic targets destroyed and number of enemies killed.

Field capture will be possible and can be done to gain strategic position from which to launch attacks on enemy strats, but will not in itself, be a factor in victory.

All five of the enemies factories, Refinery, Ammo, Radar, Training and AAA, must be down to 20% or less and the prevailing country must have a higher number of kills for victory to be achieved.

You can check the factory status of all countries by right clicking on the map and on war status or any base status.




Objectives will be tallied nightly and if one country has met both criteria, the battle will be won and a new set up will be loaded the next morning.

The arena will be open 24/7 for dogfighting but the target objectives will be disabled during the overnight hours and re-enabled each day for primetime play.

Objectives are subject to adjustment as we see how the scenario plays.

The beginning set up will be Adler Krieg on the twinrivr terrain.

We may adjust it a little.

No thanks, I don't like flying like Ray Charles.. at least not anymore than I normally do.

I think it has helped me with my SA and teamwork.

That's fine, we recognize it isn't for everyone!

Quick question Raven, will the factories regenerate after a time period like they do in the MA's or will the damage done be permanent until the map change?

The plan is to set the downtime to max so they don't regenerate.

A lot will depend on how it all plays out. We hope that by having the factories in play only during primetime hours there will be enough people wanting to defend against juicy bombers and jabos that the battle can keep going for at least a couple of days.

Thanks Jimson. Sence this is similar to an idea I had suggested I think it is an awsome set up (a little biased  ), hopefully others will too.

[Delirium]

Apologies to the AvA team for my small joke, not only was it a joke about the settings, but it was also a joke at myself for my lack of SA. I didn't mean to offend anyone...

Too bad not everyone on the AvA team can take a joke.

We think this might be a fun way to get a strategic game going in AvA, while having something a little different from MA as far as base capture not being the central element.

By taking the stats from the AH score page at the beginning of the set up we can get a base kills number by plane model, separate them into Axis and Allied categories and then at any time, parse out the kill numbers during the set up.

We will have to exclude the ones that aren't country specific, field guns, chutes etc.
