epic fail of a night
My mistakes made it what it was, a furball party. As the hour wore on I realized that wasn't what a good chunk of participants wanted. That was largely because divergent expectations. Mostly my fault, because in my efforts at flexibility i left too many options.
My personal bias was simple - just find a bunch of red dots, and get a bunch of guys together to attack them. I ended up having a good time.
Trouble was, I had used a bunch of other ideas in the proposal, so those who were looking for a classic fighter sweep, or a night of horde busting, were disappointed. Sorry about that, 321Bar. (To make up for it, I'll send a PM to HTC asking for the M18)
Anyway, I'm still game if folks are interested in a true fighter sweep, where we would fly from base A to intercept enemies flying from Base B to attack Base C.
