Tired of the horde and land grab?

I think every channel between 200 & 299 can be seen by all countries. Don't think it'll run in the MA though... (See previous response about La7/Spit wall)

Think when we log on we're Bish in the DA.  I don't see why two opponents fighting can't log onto the same channel and discuss comments and moves while fighting.  This is a learning experience for all of us.

Many of us have not fought one on one in the over 7 years I've been here so this will be both an opportunity and a joy.  Get to know some people who've shared the game with you for years.

I'd have a better chance in running into a Dodo Bird in the middle of rush hour, walking down the I-5 with two hookers in tow before I see a useful post from glock89- Ack-Ack

Is there a common radio channel that crosses country lines other than Chan200.  If so, make that the furball channel.

If you log in to MA and want to furb, dial up Furb channel and get the coordinates.

I would be all over that.  It's time we take a piece of the MA and make it our own and keep moving it around when the spoilers show up.



tis a great idea. how about channel 299, noone ever uses it :) vox or text ?

Schatzi!

Yes...I had lots of fun myself.  Hope we can get more people enjoying this.

Will check the DA again tonite.  I'll hang around see if those interested return and we can do the same thing.

We had a few early on in the fight who upped late war aircraft.  Hopefully they didn't know the rules.  Fighting 262s and 163s was a bit difficult in early war rides.  Also the D model ponies ran a great deal.  But as the night progressed all were in 1943 or earlier rides.

I too had fun last night. A couple of questions, thoughts and suggestions~

The DA is a public arena. If the EWF concept gels and grows, how do we keep the the group from interfering with folks who are in the DA for 1v1 duels?

Is it possible to form EWF squads - no larger than 32? Reason I say is that vox could be addressed that way by way of squad vox. If so, can one squad divided between 2 countries com together under one squad vox?

Should we think about putting together a list of acceptable planes?

When I first entered the DA last night I was told it was a 1v1  engagement situation, which turned out not to be the case. So what are the engagements do's & don'ts?

cool idea. we could start an unofficial squad, almost like a club lol. if we all tune to radio 2** (i suggested 299), we can find each other in the MA, or in the DA, and just find each other, have some small duels. i had great fun last night and i'm definitely coming tonight hajo!

any other euro's coming tonight? would be nice to get to bed earlier than 3 am tonight i think hehe


most of us were having 1v1's, but that was because we'd ask everyone else to keep out of our fight ;) and yes, squad vox goes across countries

well...  We didn't get a lot of people in but it would be a good idea...  I liked the canyons.

I don't think there should be rules tho except maybe not a bad idea to limit planes to fairly early war ones.   I like free for alls a lot better than 1 v 1 also.  

Would be good to just have 10 or so on each side and just let things happen.
