So.... I'm sure the anal retentive "phony realism" crowd will heap their disdain on em... Terms like "mindless, low alt furball" come to mind.  

Too many people are just simply having a blast around em...  My squaddies are getting back together and enjoying their online time again in record numbers.  Now that I think about it, so are the other AHers tho.  Seems there is something for everyone to do now so long as they have a carrier afloat.

Maybe it also has something to do with the new map tho.   More fields closer together maybe.   The island in the center.... I don't know.   Whatever it is tho.... We are seeing way too many people having a good time.   I expect the anti fun crowd, elitists to start up any minute now.

Well, this "phony realism" lover also loves a good CV furball, too.

The CV's and boats in general are a hoot! And those PT boats....Drop-dead gorgeous!

Anybody fly the Warbirds Scenarios "Fast Carriers"? Organized by Fletchman.

Those scenarios were great. Now that we have the TBF, we need a re-creation of those. Two CVs, randomly placed on a big Solomons Map.

Japanese side gets the Zeke, US gets the F6F. Both sides get the TBF. Launch your scouts, form your strike, organize your CAP and Escorts.

Big fun.

Yep carrier scenarios should be awesome now that we can navigate.

I had two flat-tops less than 100 metes apart under my control, I felt like Charlton Heston for a moment. The thing that pisses me off tho is that Cit always comes and bounces me outta the bridge!

I'll have to agree with Spaz,even though my tastes run more to scenarios/events than furballing.

 1.05 is a quantum leap forward in fun and gameplay!
