I'll throw the idea aroun with the Jokers, I'm sure we could field enough interested people. This sounds like a great idea- maybe I should read the forums more!

please do attila, DH,   both of your squads will do very well in the event  IMO,

It needs a minimum of 2 matches every 6 months,  which cannot be difficult to organise for even the most laid back, lazy squadron CO.   ;)

This goes to all squadrons that can put up 6 or more guys on a pre-arranged basis for squad vs squad matches of which there are many.

Plane matchups can be selected before hand,  historical or same types.  It is best of 5 rounds wins and a ladder format.  The full rules of the setup can be found here:  http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,254157.0.html

The current league members and standings are as follows

The Few                       (3-0)
332nd Flying Mongrels  (2-1)
JG11                           (1-0)
71 Squadron                (0-1)
(+) Precision               (0-1)
VF-31 Tomcatters        (0-1)
The Haze 100th FBG     (0-1)
The Flying Circus         (0-1)
TAC Drivers                 (0-0)
Army of Muppets         (0-0)



The league is not about self promotion or bragging rights,  it is about getting your squadron together and having fun controlled fights with like minded people.  With the amount of squadrons in Aces High i've always been shocked at the lack of squadron vs events, this is the perfect setup to get these fights happening everyweek and not monthly/fortnightly as is currently.  To make it work we need more participation from the Aces High squadrons to prevent it going stale.



Again this is not about proving who is best but any of the above can field 6+ guys for an hour or so of fun fights.  This event can also help bring the community closer together and away from the whole MA gangbang, horde/whinefest.  ;)


Then why the standings? :huh         I will get some Unforgiven together

the standings are just for the records.   to keep a track of who has fought who and to help people decide who they wish to challenge,

for example say in the long term we get a broad picture on the average skill level of each squad, you would be expected to either challenge the squadron one place above yourself or one in a similair spot to yourself to keep a fair balance.   The Few wouldn't be forever challenging the team at the bottom of the ladder to increase our win count,

you see where I'm coming from?

havent got any time for people who want to assume the worst banshee,

I'm here trying to sell something that daddog, hammer and trotter have setup for the benefit of all AH squads,  If you can't participate for whatever reason i'll appreciate you staying out of the thread.

hows that saying go  ?  "if you haven't got anything nice to say , then don't say it"

if you read the SDL rules that kind of behaviour will get sorted pretty quickly. 

The only squadron you have to worry about is your own.

And, again, not to be rude or anything, but have you ever seen a perfect community where a rule is NOT broken?

No, I don't.  Although I would field my 5 guys against 6 of some of the others....  :t

 To those who want grief or complaining this league is not for you . It is however fun and a very different kind of air combat in the game. Teamwork and meeting other squads is really the benefit here and the rules are straight forward and simple . Try this and you'll be amazed at how you'll like it.
