Couldn't stay long and thanks to Oldman rapidly teaching me the 'turn it around and takeoff downhill trick' as soon as he saw me.  I like the setup but I hate the ack.. nothing new there :D

JG11 was there in decent numbers from 9-10 est.  The place was dead with only 2 allied players upping from a cv.

The long flight times are putting players off.  Notice the MA has a 1 to 1.5 sector range between bases? 

How about giving the Allies some bases on the mainland just to encourage a fight?

JG11 squad night is tonight.  We will check out the AVA but if nothing is going on it will be to the MA for us.

Just a thought. 

How about disabling manned guns on CV (including 5")

I know the auto-ack is cranked waaaaay down which helps in a fight when guys try to run to ack, which is great.  Raising the auto ack from 3k to 5k would be great, also

But... getting involved in a really good fight for 2-3, knuckle whitening minutes, only to get sniped by someone sitting in the 5"ers is very disheartening.

To balance it out, up the hardness of the CV's.

OR....

Could the Axis PLEEAAAASSSSEEE have some carrier based aircraft?

Better than racing an Osti or M-16 off the deck to see who can make the biggest splash.  :rofl

...er...I'm missing something here (nothing new about that).  The carrier fleets are literally right off the Japanese coast; my time to the fights last night was never more than three minutes or so.  The aircraft bases are actually much closer together.

I've made some huge splashes with the Corsair Sunday.

OM is right of course, this map is way too small to allow both side to have land bases on Japan.  ;)

We can't disable manned guns and I really do not think we can adjust the alt on puff ack. I would love to be proven wrong on both trust me.
