I like the idea Bruv, but if I may...

I think it would be better if it was sort of like furball lake, in the sense that once you die you can immediately take back off again and join back in on the squad duel.  And a round is basically 10 minutes non stop or something to that effect.  With that, have there be an area in the middle that you must stay within if you aren't engaged and have "survived".  The reason for that is so a couple guys left can't retreat and reform with their reinforcement squaddies past a certain point in the middle.  After the 10 minutes most kills wins.

it is un-limited lives so you can re-up straight away.

The rounds are 15 minutes long from everyone hitting the middle.  

come fly it and then we can talk tweaks   ;)

Oh ok cool.  But what is to prevent 3 squaddies from running back towards their base from the middle to meet up with 3 reinforcement squaddies?  That's what I was kind of getting at that once you get to the middle you can't leave the middle, unless of course some fight brings you on the fringe and outside, that should be ok.

The survivors of the 30 man furball at the start need to decide how best to play it providing they stay within the alt limits.  If they have no damage and plenty of ammo left they would want to take on the nearest opponents and rack up more kills.   If a whole squadron died quickly they may face 6 from one side, 5 from another etc they will eventually die and have to re-up.

If they beat a retreat to form up with dead squaddies that is fine as long as they don't go back into their NO-FLY zone.  They will have to re-plane if they do.   It is a squadron event, time spent flying around not killing is time wasted.

Success will usually depend on fast thinking C.O's adjusting their battle plans mid-round to maximise their kill counts.
