Would you want to link www.reddragons.de/aceshigh/tactical.htm
to the HTC site?  We are working to build this more and more and anything that anyone asks for in the basics will be added as soon as we can.
Thanks!

As I have mentioned before, a super job on your site...your tips have sure helped me!

A suggestion for your writers...it helps greatly to include the 'hows'and 'whys' as well as the 'whats' in these articles.

For example, if I were to talk about the High Yo-Yo, I would not only describe the maneuver, but would also tell when the maneuver is to be used and then include screenshots that show how the maneuver is flown in the sim.

Too many of our manuals and strategy guides are content with only the 'what'.

With regard to the article on SA, you give an example of a radio call..

"Con hi 51 8 out, Con co-alt 3clk 205 closing, Con lo spit 11clk".

It might help the new guy if you were to explain what those abbreviations and terms mean as well as what the intent of the call is. (What is a 'clk'?!!)

Here's a suggestion for another topic: describe how you use the snap views to make an attack. Explain how you use these views to effectively employ BFM principles (pursuit angles, radial G, God's G, control of closure, etc.) This would be a big help to all the folks with only padlock experience.

Thanks again for taking the time to do this!

Andy,
  Great points.  We now have the radio abbrevations up and will set them up to link earlier so they come before the tactical stuff.  Will also link that stuff to the abbreviations page.  
  Will work on the use of the views for good SA next.  Sounds like a nice add on topic for a follow up!

I really appreciate your feedback as this will help others enjoy the game faster and become a working part of the community!

S!

I be dumb!!

I finally figured out that 'clk' was 'clock'...I kept thinking it was a distance as in 'klic'...but that didn't make any sense.

In RL, we would make the call, 'Bandit (or bogey), left, 10 o'clock, level, 4 miles...+ any remarks. The R and L is put in since sometimes people make clock code errors...by also saying R or L, it reduces the chance that will happen.

Looking forward to your next article.
