Given how differnet this map is from any other map... do you think we could have troops enabled so that we can capture bases?

Id love to try out the new cool stuff on this map.

Either that both sides have troops or alternating like this.

Allies have troops in 1941
Axis have troops in 1942
Allies have troops in 1943
Axis have troops in 1944

Capture will be enabled, I think I'll add the C47 and M3 to both sides from the start. But the number of troops (required for capture) will be higher than MA default... Perhaps 25 instead of the 10.

Tex I like that idea!
Maybe not on a yearly thing, but everytime an upgrade comes along, maybe give the other side troops, and then the next upgrade switch.

I gotta try and get into this. I've always disliked Finn/Russ. No matter what side I fly , this setup has always been my least favorite. I know it's a big hit with most folks, I just can never get into it.
But I'm gonna try.

I Dl'd it today and flew off line. It's killer. Very nice work.

I'd personally suggest not going over 20 troops needed. It's hard enough to coordinate 2 goons in a small arena setting, 3 is asking too much, methinks.

I disagree.

Personally I do think it is actually easier to coordinate people in a smaller arena setting.

Panzzer,

Some setup notes:

- remember to take of the protect objects to enable destryction of all bridges
- set the radar circles fairly small (was it 5 miles or so.. I think Sasmox knows)... there are lots of radar towers everywhere
- ack lethality should maybe be lowered some from default.

Hats off.

That looks cool.

I never played online, i really hope i can play.

Man, you online playin guys got it good.

I mean, is there a better map than this ?!

I played offline, and it was amazing!!!!

One thing I'll never figure out is how you Finns have been allowed to have the FM2 , a 1943 design sub for a 1939 Brewster Buffalo , or B-239 as you call it. Then get to include it during a 1941 setup against such uber performers as the P-40B.

I know I am about to get hammered by the conspiracy against the Axis , hammer of doom.....I have to ask though..... Isnt this a bit of a stretch?

Just asking, and ducking , and diving.

Hehe, I think just about everybody has asked about that sub at one point Shifty.

I totally agree with you and have never understood that sub for as long as the Fin-Rus setup has been around. I think the F4f-4 would be a better choice. But I am open to a good reason why the Fm-2 has been chosen instead, just haven't had anybody offer one yet.

Although Fm-2 or not I am looking forward to the new map and setup tomorrow.

I popped into the SEA earlier to try things out.

It's very hard to get from 1 V-field to a nearby one. There are marshes in between them (no idea why!!), there are the reinforced enbankments around most of the field, that you cannot get past, and there are winding roads and obstructions from something that you can see visually but not get to.

Very frustrating.

I noticed 1 thing: I could not man the 8" gun at the V-field. It let me select the 37mm guns but wouldn't recognize me clicking on the 8" gun.

On other problem: It's nearly impossible to manuver inside the reinforced embankments around V-fields (where you're supposed to park your tank?) because it's too narrow. Maybe it's easier in a T-34, but I was in a panzr. I ended up getting flipped upside down because I gently nudged one side.

I think I'll avoid the GV war on this one. I think I'll focus on IL2 GV pounding!!!
