Is the rumor about HiTech true . . . ?

[Brooke]

Yes, it is true!

HiTech, creator of Aces High, the man himself, is flying in the scenario on Oct. 22nd.  In fact, he is a CO of the Axis side in the event.

If you'd like to fly with HiTech -- or blast him from the skies! -- please join me in the "Tunisia 1943" scenario. 

It will be the first scenario in Aces High 3, and it will be on the ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS Tunisia terrain for lots of awesome combat action in North Africa.

P-39's, Spitfires, P-39's, P-40's, A-20's, B-25's, B-26's, and B-17's of the US 12th Air Force will battle it out against the . . .

109's, 190's, C.202's, Bf 110's, and Ju 88's of the Luftwaffe and Regia Aeronautica.

This scenario is a special format running on October 22nd, open from noon to midnight Eastern US time, where players can come in to play at any points during those 12 hours and play as much of it as they desire.  Takeoffs will be enabled on the hour (noon, 1 pm, 2 pm, 3 pm, etc.).

Registration and more information is available here:

Walkons are also welcome.  I hope that you will register (and lock in your plane to fly), but if you can't, you can still show up on game day for some AWESOME SCENARIO ACTION!

Just don't turn your back on him. He kept putting me in jail every time I tried to steal his sheep.

Hah, I wonder if anyone shoots him down if they'll run into an unexplained wall of downdraft wind to the tune of 1000mph or so...j/k.

I remember the beginning days, I'm sure many others do too, when you would see those blue letter names of HTC staff/HT jumping into the arena to play, it always seemed to boost the mood and promote a positive attitude for the hours they would be flying.  Likely be the same effect in a scenario, should be fun.  I do worry that HT will get bombarded with questions about AH3, hopefully guys will keep that on the DL and just let him fly/command instead.

[Ack-Ack]

I heard if you shoot down HiTech during the scenario, you get a free year of AH.

[Brooke]

By the way, if folks could spread the word about this in the Main Arena, I would be much obliged. 

[JimmyC]

I heard if you shoot down HiTech during the scenario, you get a free year off AH.
