Larry you're partially right, but also wrong. It was like that because the way the war objectives were set, everyone went running after the objectives instead of fighting eachother. It wasn't fun. I'll tell you though, just because we in this thread label it as a 'war' doesn't mean it will be run the same way.

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 is a good idea.

Iv wanted to try to get "TNM" going again. If I could know what the next setups will be a few days before I can put some stuff together.

I have to agree with Truekill to a point- Though the wars were a lot of fun, but you could see clear degeneration in pilot skill and otherwise gameplay during them, unless, of course, there was a large mission going on. The big squads really made it work.
Really I enjoy big historic missions more than anything else in this game. I've said before that if it weren't for FSO I would have quit long ago, as landgrabbing really doesn't appeal to me, and 1v1 fights, though undoubtedly adrenaline pumping, are too few and far between to keep me in the game.

I love the sound of more big missions! Maybe we should do it on Tuesdays, giving people an alternative to the hell-hole that is Titanic Tuesday.

Sure. I did a poll a few years ago to see when most people would like to have a mission in the AvA. Maybe we should to it again, but I would discourage Tuesdays because sometimes titanic Tuesday makes vox not work the the AvA and Friday because of the FSO. I was thinking maybe a poll between Monday, Wednesday and Thursday.

I'd love to see a historical setup without the red tape of the special arenas.

I think the big thing here is members of JG54 and JG11 conversing in a civilized manner without flaming eachother :D

Maybe this trend will continue in the future... :salute
