The Incomplete Compendium of Air Warrior Campaign Scores (1st Edition)

[Wraith_TMS]

Hi everyone,

The "compendium" is a little project that I just finished.  It's a PDF compilation of all the old Air Warrior complete campaign scores that I could find.  You'll find the link to it on the current top page of our squad website.  It's a big file, but it's like a trip back through time.

I'd hoped to have it ready for Christmas as a gift to old  AW'ers out there, but I just couldn't get it ready in time.  However here it is.  It may bring back good memories for some  , and maybe start or end some arguments about who was Uber and who wasn't  .  You'll find many old friends and adversaries in its pages, including our good host, Mr. D. Addink, who shows up all over the place!  Enjoy, compliments of The Musketeers  :

 It ends just when I got started. Sometime in 1996. Got any from then till its demise?

Thanks for posting Wraith dood

Oh my ...

11/15/91 ...4th in bombing score as Gray Eagle
of the Aggressors no less

I had been playing about a year by then, as Deader initially,
then as GE as I began to get kills
-LOL-

Scoring was rarely my focus... not much time spent over 10k

I'm with Filth on that one Wraith, you just missed getting me on there.  I think I had to have started juuuust after your cutoff there.  I wonder if there's some way to come up with the AOL scores from back then.  I know I've said this before by the way, but you are truly the man!

Thanks Madda.  Yes, as I mentioned in the foreword and on the blog post, it's got gaps in the results time-line.  Hence the title "Incomplete".  I can commiserate if you guys aren't in there, since I myself only make my first appearance on the charts in camp 121, I believe.  I can relate... truly.      A few months back, when I got the idea for this thing, I put out a call on this board and the AWonline boards, for anyone that might have old records to contribute to this project, but I guess no one had any additional to offer.  This is why it's also the "1st Edition."   If more records are found, I can make a 2nd edition, and even break them up into volumes, since the amount of data in this file is huge even now.

BTW, I may or may not have posted about the Crash & Burn Cafe Archives before (sorry, guys), but here is a similar document which compiles the printouts that we have on hand, of the old Crash 'n' Burn Cafe, from AW's GEnie days, (circa 1991 and 1992).  It too may be incomplete but it was all that we had (Thanks Thud!).  This was before my time on AW too, but it's a hoot to read.  All the nonsense you see on the AH boards had precedents on the C&B board  .  You can find the link to the PDF for it on the Muskies' site here:  http://www.musketeers.org/?p=171

Have fun...

I have a notebook .. somewhere .. with all the Aggressors in there from when I began AW .. not many stayed with the game.

Vossman (1571?) (Jay Thompson, not to be confused with that scumbag who said he flew F-16's for the CIA ..ROFL)
..only two that stayed in AW I beleive.

Got boxes that I havent unpacked for over a decade ..I know one of 'em has the maps and boxes of AW unopened that I was given as they were published, along with copies of the magazine covers I did an such.

Hi GE,

Sounds like you may have a trove there.  You know, I bet a lot of the AW vets have stuff like that around, but it's buried somewhere in an attic or garage, and probably few are willing to dig through old stuff.  Another problem is that newer computers don't come with 3.5" disk drives anymore, so they have no way of seeing what may be in an old disk.  I ordered my computer with a 3.5" drive just so I had a way to go through legacy stuff, but not everyone has that capability on their 'puters anymore.

Thanks for the compliment earlier, btw. 

BTW GE, Killer was asking about you on our Bloody Blade forum the other day, btw.  You might want to check out his post:

Wow, if I keep posting on this forum at this prolific rate, I might reach "platinum" status in less than a decade! 

Cheers!

Oh I remember you asking on the list about this stuff, but any of it that I may have had was wiped out in the fire that got all the rest of my stuff too.  I probably didn't have any score info though, as I never cared one whit about it.  I used to auger just to go and get a new plane, or to find new and interesting stuff to crash into when the fr pac was slow. 

I did see a lot of names of old guys there that I hadn't seen for a long long time though.  Nice little trip down memory lane, I accidentally took a second hour over lunch today due to reading it

<Madda's Boss>  <--- Kids, don't let this happen to you!  Don't get in trouble with your boss!  Read the Compendium AFTER work... otherwise you'll too mesmerized to be productive... it's THAT engrossing!   

Fight it, Madda, fight it!

[WMLute]

What a happy trip down memory lane.

Thanks for that!

[Getback]

I don't think I started until late 1996. That's when I first got my awesome 133 mghz comp with a huge 1.6 gig hard drive that would never ever fill up (that lasted a whole 9 mos).

[Rash]

Looks like I started late in 93.  I remember GE being an old vet back then

Anyone remember how the score system worked back then?  Seemed like consecutive and total kills counted for a lot?

I finished #2 in the WWI arena...once. I must of been uber!
