From what this non-expert has seen they are tailored to a 2 sided war with one country down in a corner being Swiss.
Of course bases and stuff could be reassigned but I'm not sure that would be as good as a map designed to have three sides.
Especially when strat stuff is considered. I think the map is ONLY setup strat wise for two sides and that would  be the nail in the coffin to kill the idea.

PS- I really don't think they are done yet.
Far too many, if not most, people on this Board post just to say something opposed to posting when they have something to say.

anyone who plays the arena with any regularity knows how I play.  I find your posts amusing especially coming from a player who dies while flying alone more often than not.  I've had a rough day here so I thank you for the comic relief and the heart lightening belly laugh.  any time you and three of your squaddies want to put me to the test just ask, you alone are no fun to fight.

I just asked sondog which enjoys more the MA or the AVA. He told me the AVA, but could not articulate as to why. After some probing questions he concluded that he likes the AVA more because he does better in there then in the MA.  That surprised me, but it could be because his lack of SA is more of a handy cap in the MA than the AVA due to the large numbers and always having to watch your back. I do know that when he flys in the MA he does not have any stories unless he is with some squadies. If he is in the AVA he often calls me to tell me about something that happened, not so much in the MA. Also I think he gets more positive feed back from the crowd in the AVA than in the MA. Then again I don’t let him tune to 200 in the MA, just the AVA. He knows so many of the regulars in the AVA which is another reason he might be more comfortable in there.

LOL Shifty your post is a perfect example about what I commented on. He ran upstairs to tell me that you were on him and he flew through some smoke and fire and just missed a tower, but you crashed into it.

That's a great point that often gets overlooked by the AvA/MA regulars. There is much to learn when given a limited planeset, in fact, I love that aspect of it. But your SA can't be improved better than it is in the MA due to sheer numbers. Part of my game improves in the AvA and part of it improves in the MA and yet another part of it improves in scenarios and the like (which I haven't had the time to be involved with over the past 6 months).

The only posts that reach a nerve for me is when people knock one arena or the other just because they feel 'their' arena is the best arena and the 'other one' is somehow inferior. I love watching people tell others that their opinion is wrong.

sondog is becoming a great player.  he's always a plus when he's on your side and a good adversary when in red.

a player who dies while flying alone more often than not.


That is because i will fly " ALONE " at 4 enemy players and fight them all wether i die or not it's a GAME.

autopilot,  that's a good handle for you it applies perfectly to how you play.  you die while taking off because you suck not because anyone is around you. you are impossible to vultch as you self destruct in most cases, to everyone's amusement.  you are incapable of a decent takeoff let alone a fight.  furthermore you are denser mercury.  there are boxes full of rocks demonstrating considearbly more intelligence than you.  you should consider taking up basketweaving you may be a little more successful at that.
