BACK TO TOKYO! FRAME 2 ADJUSTMENTS
« on: April 12, 2008, 09:09:02 AM »
1.  BDA Photos are removed as a requirement for USN objective scoring.

2.  Squad Assignment Change:  332nd Mongrels and Army of Muppets are now USN squads and will remain so for Frames 2 and 3.  The Emperor thanks them for their loyal service.

That is all.

I will still pass along what BDA photos I can get, just for interest sake if you want. PM me an email. I just sent a request for what they had. Might be cool just to see them.

Now you know what they are thinking and how their planes work best.  Now you get to defeat yourself :)

So for next 2 frames the allied forces has the numerical advantage? axis frame 1 232 pilots allied 227
your taking 37 pilots from 1 side to the other after the start?

Sometimes, the way you think the setup will play out doesn't happen.  So, after the first frame, if something's amiss, we make an adjustment.

I think it's a good decision, something needed to be done to make it more challenging for the Axis.

Agreed.  The designers never can tell for sure what's what until after the first run.

What about limiting the Axis to 75% gas, as there was a complete blockade of the islands thanks to COMSUBPAC.

<--Apllauds the designers for the initial attempt at adding some variety and the wisdom to make some needed adjustments after the first run. Any criticism of these decisions would seem a little selfish to me and probably come from the side that won the frame. Yes, I was on the losing side so feel free to disagree with me.  :rolleyes:

It would seem obvious to me that the side who has only to worry about defending should have the lower number of pilots. Defenders objective: climb to the stratosphere and wait for bomb laden enemy planes to appear below you knowing that their success depends on reaching and destroying the target. Jabos can't dive on a target from 30k so it's very unlikely they will have that much alt on ingress. This is not a criticism aimed at CMs but at those who would complain about the adjustments being made to make it fun for all. My $.02
