Saturday 3pm Easter Eagler

Expect 2-3 hours of fun!

Apparently, one in five people in the world are Chinese. And there are five people in my family, so it must be one of them. It's either my mum or my dad. Or my older brother, Colin. Or my younger brother, Ho-Chan-Chu. But I think it's Colin. - Tim Vine.

Lunatic checking in. :aok

The whole team that set this up, might be the real lunatics around here. :D


"the realism of this event is amazing in that I can go in any book I have and
read about the situation we face in this scenario and its exactly what the
luftwaffe faced. I find that so compelling and irresistable that I can't wait
to fly the next frame. "

I was thinking the same thing, only from the allied side.

Interesting post Storchy, shame you don't want anything to do with scenarios as you stated a while back. I would have suspected you wouldn't bother to post in here at all, considering These guys actually having a good time has absolutely nothing to do with you at all

:D
ROC
Nothing clever here.  Please, move along.

The scenarios can be a great change of pace from the MAs. They are different worlds entirely when things go well, and can be a great deal of fun to those of a particular mindset.

It's the closest thing to CT that most of you will experience before you die- give it a shot! :)

There is just no comparison between the MA and a scenario. Scenarios are what brings this game alive for me. I'm having an absolute blast, can't wait 'till the next frame.

Many, many thanks to all those who are making this happen.

I didn't have the time to post an AAR as I had to leave for Florida a few hours after the scenario.

 Scenarios are the reason that I stilll am here.
I find myself spending less time in the MA then I did a few months ago.

The CM team to say the least is spectacular.  I can't imagine the hours of work they put in to bring a Scenario together.  It's generally thankless work and greatly under appreciated.

Thanks to ROC, Brooke, and Roo for making this the best scenario to date in Aces High.

Also thanks to Fencer for his many many hours of work designing this Scenario and also leading the Allied side in this event.

Organizing and leading the miscreants who are the Allied COs in this event is probably something similar to driving "the short Bus". ;)
