BS, I remember back in the day all 3 wings of the BK's on at the same time.  The GV wing would all up troops and head to a town while our bomber wings flew NOE to level the buildings given cover by the fighter wing vulching the runways.  We would take 30 or 40 bases every night and if I remember correctly, we had like 80 to 90 guys on.  Ahhhh, the good old days  :D
:lol

Man, I sure do miss those good old days.  We'd shut down arena after arena with our finely honed combined ops.

Blue arena is running one of the AH1 maps right now, it rings back memories of Ded and Levi and the other BKs rolling bases from way yonder.  Great furballs on that map last night.
And I don't know much, but I do know this. With a golden heart comes a rebel fist.

Thats when HT came up with the Pizza map so the arenas would not reset every hour.

Levi, you still playing WoW? You ever going to come back to Aces High, even if it's just for one sortie?

Heya, Kazaa!  <S>  I'm still playing WoW, though I've been taking it very casually during the summer.

Dunno about returning to Aces High.  I can assure you that the level of rust I'd have would make even rank noobs cringe.

As I said, like the good old days.  No wonder you were assigned to bomber wing

You need to get back into the pilots seat Levi, the adrenaline of perfectly timed reversal will be enough to break your years of WoW addiction and never ending pursuit for obtaining the best gear. I'm speaking from experience.

I tried the WoW couldnt get into it, had big hopes for Conan, that was a flop, so now I am banging away at Fallout 3.
 trying my hand at modeling, that is not easy stuff to do. :O
