Wars
« on: November 26, 2008, 12:11:03 PM »
I really liked flying in the wars. But bases started getting captured and it started getting not fun at all.

Last night, delta ran his mission and I thought it was really fun(even though i got shot down 4 times :furious).

So maybe like 2 or 3 certain nights. Squads can come in and run huge missions against each other with all the squads working together. Historically of course.


Just my .2 cents.

I think a lot of people are looking for this kind of gameplay but get funneled into the rook/bish/knight disorder enforced in the MAs by HTC.  :rolleyes:

well, it is sort of like FSO but FSo only happens once of week 3 times on month.  :)

Some people like mission based part of the game. Instead of the normal Main arena furball.

Stream and I used to do something called "Thursday Night Missions". It always revolved around a bomber raid. It used to draw 50-70 people every week into the CT/AvA with out having one base taken. Only problem was when we tried a BoB setup no one wanted to fly LW and we ended up having five sets of Ju88s was about ten 109s go up against about twenty-five or thirty spits.

this more squadron based than just show up. Im not trying to say it should be like FSO. Just something to have fun

and this would be like during wars.

I heard many times last night (while JG 11 was up to intercept the mission) "This is how the game should be played", was said multiple times. I agree with fudgums, as long as we get dedicated squads looking to have fun, and good numbers, it can be a blast.

The AvA is a much better place for such a thing, it is more fun in an allied vs axis scenario but i nthe MA a few people twisted that by escorting the buffs in 190s, schwalbes, spits, etc.

As long as  i get my 262 to scout with in the AvA, its a great idea.  :aok

It was pretty much squadron based. We would advertize a week before and whole squads would show up to join in. There would be a CO for each side and they would pick where to bomb and such.

just to follow up my post, this would go with the war instead of what you said Larry. I looked back and found some of your stuff. It looked nice, it looks alot like a snapshot. This would go into the war(Bugs War,BOA, BOB, 107).

What you wont wont really work with the "wars". They were all about milk running and taking as many bases has you can in a day. Stream and my missions were about historical gameplay and furballs.

Wars = HOs, gangs, vulching, and milk running

Missions = furballs and bombing runs
