When a mission launches it should be advertised on 200.

If you haven't learned by now, most of these airfield missions aren't looking to run into any defense. If they do, they scream 'spies' on the forums and demand a greater than 12 hour (some even want once a month) country switch time.

As much as I like your idea, I have a better chance of sleeping with Kate Beckinsale than the above idea has of appearing in the MA settings.

I think the idea is to announce to the ENEMY that a mission is lifting. Hence the "advertised on 200" and the "ALERT..." comments


yeah but its completly stupid.
what im saying is if they did make it so when a mission that was made in the mission composer thing anounced it launching over 200, then people would just call gatherings like Jayro. so its an easy way to avoid having your mission being anounced

isn't this what the sector counter does?
If I had a gun with 3 bullets and I was locked in a room with Bin Laden, Hitler, Saddam and Zipp...  I would shoot Zipp 3 times.

No

It was a rhetorical question, the answer is no, unless it is an NOE mission to a base with no radar, and we should all know that NOE is an acronym for no energy.  I don't believe NOE missions are potent at all and I do believe that anyone who ups to defend against an NOE mission is going to get some kills.  Anyone who ups a fast plane can get some kills and then fly to another base to land them if needed.
