The WWI Arena only has 4 planes and the only option is to dogfight.
If it is to succeed it needs a strat game, some stuff to bomb and a few more
late war planes to bring in the numbers like the Late War Arena (LWA)for WWII.
The WWI Arena also needs a Zep, some observation balloons that are mane-able (and can be blow up with
incendiaries).

The LWA is busy because there is lots to do in there. Whether you like GV's, Fighters, Bombers,
PT Boats, ect.....there is something for everyone in the LWA.  Hopefully when the economy gets better
HiTech will invest some money in WWI so it can bring in the numbers like the LWA. The ol' biplanes are a blast.

  I think the Base layout needs to be fixed. All 3 countries need to be the same distance away. similar to a tank town set up.

  Last night Bish and Knits were fighting with 9 players each and we 3 rooks had to fly a long way to join the fight. Got shot down and didn't stay to try again as the flight takes too long. You can't attack the nearby base to encourage uppers.
I always wanted to fight an impossible battle against incredible odds.

When that happens, i normally just encourage the smallest party to switch sides to make two large teams, to cut down on flying time. but thats just me.
P.S. when i do suggest it to players on the smallest side, they normally do switch.
