Perhaps I should shamelessly advertise my suggestion to a new scoring and MA mission system:

Since we are talking rank and scores.

I think they are saying the scores are rank (as in smell).  :lol

Stats are part of having a good time for me.

I want too see what i killed. In which planes I scored, and which targets. I want to track my hit%, K/S, K/D. I want to see how different rides influence those values. I want to see how different models fare against each other. I like to see how other players do.

Yup ,to me the stats are kind of like reading the backs of baseball cards. While definitely not necessarily a complete measure of a players' talent, they do quantify some salient attributes that are relatively easy to relate to and compare. Statistics in AH are especially valuable in gauging your own relative performance as mentioned above. You can make sure to do what is required to keep them meaningfull for yourself to use. Unlike other peoples' stats that they may have gone out of their way to manipulate artificially, which anyone who has played more than a month could do if they chose to with a little skill and motive.

I absolutely can't figure out why Rolling Thunders have a better fighter rank than Lentolaivue 34...

I think this would promote more interesting play with more meaningfull scores.

HOWEVER:

The current system has its merits and score does have some meaning. No unskilled fighter pilot can get a low score of say under around 500 halfway into the tour.

To get a realy top score you have to accumulate allot of points in either fighter, bomber, gv or atack which favors those who have plenty of time to play but that alone will not get them through the likes of Kill to death ratio, kill per hour, kill per sportie etc.

Ok Guys, I've posted about this before, and the same BS was produced.
Here's the FACTS
#1 The Fighter Scores for Squads are FUBAR'd and HTC won't admit it.
#2 I won't be convinced otherwise until the "FORMULA" for said scores is posted by HTC.
#3 Challenge is Clueless, so ignore any of his input.

Nuff Said :aok
