Hi,

Is Thursday, 12, 10 PM the definitive date? Where will it be? And 10 PM GMT or other time zone? We're flying from Europe...

Thanks,

Hi OM, the settings should be MA standards. The units available are those listed above, but with one addition. The allies will have 3 Bostons available to them. The Bostons if lost will have to re-up as Hurri2d.

   The following bases should be turned off

A21
V37
A26
V47
A24
A2
A50
A30
V51

     A34 will be axis. Ord off
     A31 will be Allied Ord on for Bostons only, until Bostons are lost. Then disable ord at A31.

    This will be a 1 hour mission. Any axis unit not back to A34 at end, will be considered lost.

  Victory conditions:
If 3/4 to all Axis RTB A34 safely -Major Axis Victory
If 1/2 rtb-  Draw
If 1/4 or less rtb Major allied victory

   We will run this according to pic above. Each team needs half its guys in GVs and 1/2 in planes. (only 3 in bostons NO FORMATIONS)
Once dead in a GV you must up as either hurri2d or a 109e.

Unlimited lives in fighters.

Please announce this...Rommel's Retreat @ 10pm et Thurs. 10-12 in the AvA

Thanks!

Did some testing tonight. Panzers will die from hurri2d so use of terrain will be important. 109e and hurri2d are gonna be fun!

We can disable Bostons after three of them take off - you'll need to make sure that someone does a count and lets people know when that's occurred.

We can set them to the neutral side (can't remember what it is in this setup).  If there's time enough, we can disable all aircraft, vehicles and field guns there, too.

I may be missing something, but I don't think there's a way to disable ordnance, per se, and certainly not for a given type.  We can disable any or all aircraft and vehicles, but not just the ordnance.  (Someone let me know if I'm wrong!)

Are you doing the life-limit and plane re-up voluntarily, or do you want us to disable all vehicles at bases once the war begins, as Easyscor suggested?  That would force dead people to fly planes, and they're already limited to one plane type.

Can you blow up the ords at 34 at start, and then after the last boston dies? If not no biggy, everyone whos played in these has played great.

  Yes do the easyscor idea please.

Neutral is fine..its not real crucial, but would be nice.

   I want to keep it as simple for you as possible as Id like you airborne , and not playing CM all the way through.

Thanks all for taking part! With a few changes I think it would be better.

   Maybe have no axis planes up until tanks reach half way point, then at the time the axis are allowed to up fighters, an allied base closer to the action opens up. I did like the lack of ord though, as it gave the tankers hope.

   It ended as a major axis victory, but the allies were under-manned.

   The next AvA event I do will likely be a late war bomber run against a city.
