What I liked about the AvA was fact guys had to work together to take a base, your talking some running M3's to resupply (terrible job i know to waste your hour in a cartoon game just to run supplies) But if you want your side to win, everyone makes sacrifices. Lots of teamwork, 68th squad was a blast flying against last night when luftwaffe was rather unorganized at first but we finally managed to get around to organized defense and I simply had a blast, numbers were pretty fairly even around 30 each.
Granted Some some simple things about AvA: There is a set plane list for the week, so you only have a handful of planes to choose, which is GREAT to learn a new plane and how it fly against its counterpart, Fuel burns at 1.0 which means Dont take all the fuel you normally take in Main Arena, and finally ACK. Main Arena ack I believe is 0.5 where as AvA arena its 1.5.
Dont think your going to get many trips over a runway before superman in the ack guns takes your wing off!
