If sombody couldn't find a fight they were not looking... I couldn't avoid a fight on the ground or in the air. Zero "cheap" captures on T.Tuesday... Kudos to HTC for the idea! It was fun and I look forward to next Tuesday... [whispers]... Mindinao


It was definally fun MajIssue, First I was in a Panzer then got bombed by an F4u-4, came back in a Spit 14 but F4u ran off, then CV came to A50 (a field next to 69) so i defended that, it was quite an interesting night!

I being a rook did NOT have trouble finding a bish or knit horde, so if im being horded, there is a fight somewhere, best thing to do is look at your map.
I logged off an hour ago bish/rook front at A80/A73 was still going at it (been that way since 2am)

I had a great time and no problems finding fights.

I started out with some Knight buff hunting on the Bish Western front as Knights tried (and did) capture a base from us (which we captured right back).  There went 2-3 missions.

Then I joined the furball in the middle of the map.  Great fun!  There went several missions.

Then I moved south to try defending another base against Knights.  That might have been the most fun as it was never more than 1, 2 or 3 on one but there was a constant line of guys coming in to fight.  

Finished it off there and logged after 4 hours of continuous fighting.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

So why complain about the spit that ran? You could have given chase and downed it. Also the options are still there, AvA, Early, Mid. Oh, forgot, those aren't the options YOU (meaning those grumbling about T.T.) want.

The three way furball was partially compliments of Luftmorder.  I bombed the bish base to the east all day and kept it pretty much flat until enough of the nit boneheads to the north figured it out and finally took it.

Was overhead in another bomber when the base was won and made the suggestion to take the base to the east so we could have a fighter town.  Most of the fighters did a rearm and moved east to take it.  I dropped the vh, 2 fighter hangers and softened the third.  Bish base fell soon after and fighter town was born.

Never saw soooo much red in one furball for the rest of the evening while I was on.  Had a great time there honing my dying skills.

was almost non-stop furball wherever I went with the squad... great fun overall, numbers swang both ways each time.
I don't know what to put here yet.

I guess I'll chime in..

I tried a little of everything.. and managed to get what I wanted in all cases..

first I did a little squad action, base cap..  that worked out, the took the yak up and skimmed the edge of the "horde" areas and managed to get into a few deacent fights (1v1 or 2v2) ..  took up some 88s for a nice quiet milk run to the a knight refinery.. then re-upped in the yak and went straight into the middle of the chaos for some good ole fashoned mayhem..


I had no problems at all finding the fights I wanted..

if you dont want a furball .. find a "horde" situation and up from a base a sector or 2 out from it and skim the edge of the action..  you'll pick something up..  dont go too deep in though or youll pick something up and 5 of his friends..

I really like Titanic Tuesday..   its kinda a win win..  its a change, thats to be sure, and something different.. and if its not your cup of tea.. well its only 1 day a week..

I had a blast.  It was awsome to see 600 plus players on and the sides be distributed fairly even.  Each side had approximately 200 on.  This usually doesn't happen in the split arenas where you tend to have numbers a little more lopsided.  For those that couldn't find a fight it was at A22 and 23.  I didn't see hording as everyone is putting it I say some massive air battles in three or four different locations.  The battle at A22 and 23 was pretty even beteen knights and rooks and gravitated back and forth between the two bases.  After about an hour the Rooks started coming in from the eeast to change it up and we were able to hold a cap on 23 for about 10 minutes, but it changed pretty quickly when they decided they didn't want us there.

I liked the fact that it was very difficult to sneak bases and I saw a lot of NOE missions being called out and defended.  Was good time in my book.
