New strats plus ME163
« on: December 02, 2009, 06:09:54 PM »
currently we have the 163 available at only one field by HQ... do they have plans of allowing it by the new strat towns?

I think that would be extreme over-kill...

On small maps, the single strat area is in 163 range.

I had asked HITECH one time when he was on line if they would add additional 163 bases on the large maps & the answer was very unlikely. So I would say no at my best guess.

My guess is the best guess as guessing is what I guess I am best at I guess. So my guess would be a guess that you might guess is the guess with the best guess.

Intercept the bombers the old fashioned way...  Personally, I like the 109G14 for the job, but that's just me...

:lol I guess that we guess that your guess at guessing such guesses is a good guess as guesses go.
Here we are, living on top of a molten ball of rock, spinning around at a 1,000mph, orbiting a nuclear fireball and whizzing through space at half-a-million miles per hour. Most of us believe in super-beings which for some reason need to be praised for setting this up. This, apparently, is normal.

If I see a 163 in the area, I go somewhere else.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

This would kill the whole concept, and I would not take my bomb group just to get slaughtered exclusively by rocket ships. One may as well make this new strat indestructable, then.

The Me163 Komet saw very limited service in WW2. Confining its use to one airfield near HQ is fair enough, any more is ridiculous.

I think the new strat system is going to allow everyone that wants to fly 163's more.. Like people have already said, any more than one field is way too much

Looks like in LWBlue the small map has the 163 base close enough to protect the strat.
