Rules of Engagement:
1. no taunting, flaming etc. violators will be ejected. Zero Tolerance rule.

Killshooter-- OFF? let me know what you think about this? Again only for the Event!
friendly icons--2.5K
enemy icons--OFF


planeset will be adjusted if necessary, but we're going to try it like this. Certain bases will have C47's enable for the Event only.



Proposed Bases of Conflict:

***not necessarily in this order

Bases A19- A20, no resupply, bases are close. each have a town to kill!

Bases V11 to V15. you have to cross the river, remember the bridges are destroyable.  truck supplies only cause they are close and they have supplying bases, and planes would be active at the Vbases.

3d bases. someone make a suggestion, i really couldn't do it and be able to resupply them too. my suggestion would be this,
Bases A22-A2, each airbase gets the opposite Vbase so you can invade with GV's to go after town, no Resupply.

Let me know what everyone thinks. all opinions are welcome.

Summed up quite nicely Captain.  I like the killshooter off, as there are few squaddies that I could have some fun with! :rofl

although i won't be there......i need to mention....the bridges are fun(in a weird sort of way) to destroy. it will be interesting to see screenshots of bridges being attacked as they are defended.

Any thought given to a P47D11 or a P38J to offset the c205 and 190A5?  Both of these allied fighters have comparable speeds to the c205 and 190A5.

I am not sure that I can make it (I'll try), but it won't stop me from some nit picking questions:

Can any fields be used to launch, or just the "bases of conflict?"

How to handle folks who see a bunch in AvA and drop in, without reading this thread?

Is there a time limit for declaring victory?

Opinion: Kill shooter - ON.

This would be a legitimate concern on during nightly AVA activity.  Here it is an ends to the means.  Picking plays in when score is of concern.  It is not here.  None of the Pigs will be focused on getting and landing kills, rather there will be a focus on the goal.  To make what is yours, ours.  Will you see some cons more than low-med alt? I would be a fool if I told you no.

Most but not all fields in the vicinity of the targets will be usable.  I think Captain1MA can speak about this more intelligently than I.

They will be dispersed appropriately to the team with the lowest numbers.
Is there a time limit for declaring victory?  My feeling is 1 hour to 90 minutes tops for a round.

Opinion: Kill shooter - ON.  I am cool whether it is on or off.

I'm of mixed feelings on the KS but I don't feel strongly enough to make more than a minor point so please leave this at one or two replies from Way, Cap, or Jim, gents.  I trust AVA regs to have enough discipline not to have an AD into the back of me.  Way I also trust your guys, you I'm not so sure about :), but there are enough donkeys on this site and plenty of guys that simply don't know any better that might unleash a tater or some 20 into the back of a friendly for laughs or by 'accident' enough times to undermine the event.  Just a random thought to be considered is all.  I really do not care one way or another but I'd hate to see either side suffer for ignorance or asinine behavior.

The only thing the Axis will have against hordes of spits is their speed. Eliminate that and the Axis might as well not show up.

I am not sure which way we should go here.

My first thought is let's not overwhelm everyone with another big variance and just leave it on.

However FSO generally runs with no killshooter and it's a single life event.

So I think I'll remain neutral (gutless huh?)

Gutless? No. We're moving into uncharted territory.  There's bound to be bumps.

After time to consider it and basing what I think by the new blood that has been coming in I'm going go with turn it off, see what happens, and adjust accordingly.

One of the things I've notic... what's that on my screen? Probably Cap, I better get some alt, no never mind it's just a bit of dust.. what was I saying? :)
