AvA War - The Battle of the Reichswald (Dec 3-17th)
« on: November 19, 2009, 07:22:16 PM »
The Battle of the Reichswald occurred in a forest in Germany from February to March in 1945.  Both the American and German forces fought hard in this hard battle for two months which would determine the outcome of any further pushes into German territory.

How this Works
- There are four air and one ground squadron allowed per side. 
- Each War Squadron is recoommened to be created by existing squadrons interested in the War
- The winning side is determined on top two SQUADRON scores and top Ground squadron. They MUST be one of the squadrons however to qualify for the event.
- Should there be a split between ground and air battles, there will be no individual side winner but a tie.
- Each side has a budget. Squadrons are to appoint a commander and a representative for the respective AvA forum. Once each squadron has a rep, they can PM the AvA staff for access to the private forum channel.
- Although the war is over December 17th, units are encouraged to continue and fight in the AvA until December 31st as the scores are based on month performance, not the two week event.
- Remember, the more stuff you blow up and/or shoot down, the more points your squadron gains.

Luftwaffe $500,000
German Army $100,000

Do existing squads wish to register their allegiance to the nationals or royals?  :bolt:  
We're flexible :D

Or name your squad and the side, and who your rep is - then we'll add them to the forum.   :salute

I'm interested. What times will most be flying? I'm lone wolfing it so a squad will have to adopt me for this.

Like TT I'm torn between the 109, and the 38.

Sounds fun. I have puffy Time Zone flak, at which time of day is this supposed to run :pray?  Lately I'm flying alone, so I dont know which squad could pick me up and I dont know which side I would join. I suck in the B-38,  :joystick: that's all. 

thanks for future replies.
