Axis Vs Allies RPS is great!
« on: January 30, 2006, 08:43:53 AM »
We'll guys you have hit a winner with BOB and Rolling Plane Set.

I feel like I'm cheating when I fly for the brits and for that reason I have been flying alot of LW and it has been great!  The LW planes just barely match up to the spits and hurries and now that the playing field has been leveled a little with tht RPS it is a lot better.

There have been some great fights, especially when it was spits and hurries 1 series and 109E.  Talk about having to work the planes on both sides.  I was suprised how well the 109 matched up, but a well flow hurri or spit is deadly in the right hands no matter what.

Last night I logged in and saw 70 people in AVA.  WTG.

Although I would never want to see RPS hit the MA, I think it is spot on in the AvA and works great.  I really got a sense of time frame and immersion, especially since I am in the middle of Pete Townsends Battle of Brittian and the war is finally starting in ernest.

What I find the funniest and most suprising is that most of the ffights that I have been on have always been over England.  You would think with the better planes the Brtis would always be pushing over France, but that is not the case.  Even when the LW is outnumbered.

Any way WTG guys!  It is a great change of pace from the Fun Police and horde monkeys just padding score in the MA.  I hope AvA continues to be a place where the fight is at.

Rolling Plane Set.....................

Over time historical planes are added to represent the passing of months/years.

Start with spit 1 and hurri 1 and progress to spit5 and hurri2 etc...

The reason the fights are over england is because my allied brothers arent very good at teamwork and are a littlle passive... But Im working on them...

Is landgrabbing enabled?

Taod hey bud,

As always, this arena is really affected by the guys in there.  So if you get a bunch of guys that are just there for teh land then yeah it sucks.  But luckly for me I guess I have not seen anyone trying to land grab and there have been a lot of fun fights.


LOL hey Jam,  

Yeah I noticed some of that.  LOL sometimes it was the only reason I got away in my Franz lol.

1st time I went in there it was bore-n-zoom by 110 and 109 adnauseum. I figured that might be the case, it sucked. Figured I would try one more time in next few days.

2nd time I went in there it was great. Was fighting teufel and chance4 and they were aggressive. It was a real fight. They were both on me like flies on batfink. Chance4 is an excellent 109 pilot, I was pleasantly surprised.

I'm really enjoying it.  It's fun to see how the LW planes shine when used in their historic matchups.  It was awesome to see 50 players in the AvA last weekend, and then 70 this weekend.

70 pilots?! Heck, maybe I'll reup my account to fly in the CT. I always liked it in there but not enough pilots.
