Why "Aces High"?

[Denholm]

Back when Dale owned a P-51, Skuzzy switched the oxy tank with some nitros. In a stupor, Dale dove on a helpless flock of geese and became an ace in a day. That's my story and I'm sticking to it

Cause no one would play dweebs in cartoon airplanes.

Well I would, but I'm a dweeb so there you go

The called it "Aces High 2" because theres already a game called Aces High(aceshigh.com)
and it when they first started it,since they needed money the made it similar to the original

Somehow, I have it stuck in my head that "Aces High" was a military call sign or something that was communicated via radio...or it was a call to scramble, or something like that...it was a short blurb that was used to mean something...like "get your butt out to your plane and take off" ...or something along those lines.  I'm old, relatively speaking in this venue, but not that old.

Just a link in case anybody honestly thought that Iron Maiden came up with Aces High...

Why Aces High?

Well, maybe because calling it 'Hordes NOE', like it really is in the MA, would not of attracted some business.

Or, maybe the name '10 guys waiting for the FHs to come up' would of been a bit much as well.

(note: this isn't a slap against HTC, just the player induced gameplay lately)

The real reason is Hitech can't spell anything over 4 letters....
