Battle Over Germany - An Aces High Scenario

[cactuskooler]

I think this is going to be the most fun I've had in this game. It looks like a lot of work has gone into this and I sure appreciate it.

IN as a P-47 pilot with the 56th FG

[Krusty]

I am looking to lead JG-301 1 gruppe, dibbs please

I'm leaning that way as well. Quite a wide selection to choose from!

[Raptor03]

well, i downloaded the 352ND AAR and modified it for my needs kept it authentic.

my version is here: Word 2007: http://raptors-projects.co.cc/downloads/352FGAAR_raptor03.docx
Word 93-2003: http://raptors-projects.co.cc/downloads/352FGAAR_raptor03.doc
if you want to take a look at the format as compared to this: http://www.spitfireperformance.com/mustang/combat-reports/352-preddy-6aug44.jpg

All i did is make it easier for me to note what "Ammo" was expended, and added the historical mark-up of my pilots plane. Funny thing is the 352nd/487th Skin in-game is the exact one that i happend to pick... i picked him before i looked at the in-game skin lol...

Some people may not have the font for the Name @ the bottom of my page, the font is: Brush Script MT

but yea.. if people want i can make mark-ups for their pilot i am very talented at find accurate historical info on the Pilots of WW2...

(And yea i know registration isnt open yet, but when its open i will definitely be registering as allied under the pony and requesting the 352nd )

Why so late?  Well thanks for excluding me from what sounds like a great scenario! .  

Scenarios are my main reason for still playing AH but if this is how it is going to be in future I might as well leave altogether.  This has come as a total shock and to say I am disappointed would be an understatement.  Not only are you excluding me but also other European players.  Hope you all have fun.  Bye.

[DEECONX]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO 

[Wildcat1]

whoops, thought you could name the plane after your preferences

my new 38:

Capt. Ernest C. "Red" Fickelborn
77th FS/20th FG
a/c serial #42-68068
"June Nite" (note he named his 51 the same thing)

I'm sorry to hear that Flossy, I know how much you enjoy flying in these things, I asked in the other thread and it was brought up that this time was an 'experiment' of sorts, at least that's what I got from it.

Call it whatever you want.. the whole point is to get people into the part.

i agree, the times should be the original times so everyone can be a part.

Well im bias and will not be able to fly this one due to time changes. But im guessing the guys in Australia and New Zealand will be happy.

Klingan, I know you fly in alot of these events.  The normal schedule is perfect for the Europeans as it puts the event at the same time this one will for the North Americans. 

But I am curious, but what do you have going on such that you cannot goto bed early, and get up for the event?  Its a Sunday morning, do you have work on Sundays? 

The perception here seems to be that the time change has effectively banned people from playing.  The Australians and other pacific participants have been adjusting to an odd time for years.  Saturday afternoons is also very inconvient for alot of people in North America.

I hope you and other Europeans decide to participate, I understand it will require adjustments to your schedule, I hope you decide its worth it.

This is all true. And kudos to those in Australia and so on that have been playing even when it meant going up in the middle of the night.

But 4am is 4 am. And IF i would show up at any frame it will be as a walkon.

[airbull]

Well I  any one that can get up at 3am & fly the event im sure there will be a few.
But if I were to start up the old computer & get shouting over vox like I normally do at 3am the rest of the family would have a fit, even if it was Sunday morning.
To old as well need my sleep to much 
Have fun every one that takes part.
