Secondary Way to Win the War in any MA
« on: February 09, 2012, 10:06:54 PM »
After careful thought, "30 seconds worth", I have brainstormed a brilliant method of winning the war utilizing a back door approach.

Each map would be slightly altered in the areas around HQ.  Instead of 3 uncaptureable bases positioned closeby, they be replaced with a Mega Airfield that is captureable. 

This Mega Airfield will have 12 Fighter Hangars, 8 Bomber Hangars, 4 Vehicle hangars, 2 Radar Towers, 15 Ammo Bunkers, 30 Troops, 25 Fuel Depots, 50 Auto Guns, 35 Manned Guns, and 3 Towns.  The Mega Airfield will have 2 runways SW to NE and 2 runways NW to SE forming a double X.  1 runway W to E intersecting the 4 diagonal runways.  2 runways on the outer edge of the airfield running W to E positioned at north and south of the airfield.  2 runways also on the edge of the airfield running N to S positioned at the east and west of the airfield.

The goal is to capture the base with 3 sets of troops and instant win.

it seems simple but would require the utmost coordination of one country to achieve this feat.  Otherwise, one country owning vast majority of bases as usual for the win.


Ya know, I'm great with all these ideas.  HiTech should put me on a retainer for say $60,000 a year.  They can write that off as donating to a charity for the tax write-off.

I've always sort of thought that the HQ should have something to do with winning the war, one thought I had was the percentages could be lowered and the HQ would have to go down for a win. Give the 163 more of a role too.

I like it. +1

Have a question though. Say you take the 3 mega bases from the nits, do you also need to take the 3 bases from the bish?

Why not just make it so the uncapturables are capturable, and make getting 1-3 of them the end of the war.

Actually I just thought of something, instead of that causing the war to be over, have it cause the country who lost their uncapturable bases become green icons to the country who didn't take them.  Until the losing country has captured some of their zone bases back and fighting will resume normally.
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.

Nothing is impossible when you have strafe-and-auger 190s and thirty goons. Bases are captured now with no more planning than it takes to make a PB&J.

I like the idea of a mega airfield with huge importance. If anything, the only feasible way to take it down is a mass buff raid. Mass buff raid = huge high alt fight. High alt fight with a bunch of people = best fight.

that's what I was getting at, to win the map, destroy the capital, massive buff raids vs massive interception force and all the escort/fighter sweep stuff that goes with it.

if this could actually get pulled off it would be fricken awesome. I like your Idea but i think getting the numbers to tackle something like that would be alittle extreme. especially for some of the really big maps.

but hey, if this were to go through, i'd be up for it.

I still say including the industrial capacity of the 2 enemy nations should be included into the win the war requirements.  You would still see the 51's and 17's, and probably in a larger force to hit the enemy capitals.

This idea is interesting though, so including it with the industry requirement could make it more interesting? :headscratch:
