We will be conducting an 8th Air Force Mission vs Luftwaffe Mission in the Allied vs Axis Arena this Thursday night at 9PM EST/8PM CST.  All are welcome to attend and participate either as 8th or LW.  This is a multi-life event.  Bring your pocket full of quarters because we'll make you go broke before your done.



8th Air Force Targets :
A66 (18,11)
A67 (18,11)

8th AF Launch Bases :
A25 (11,14)

Luftwaffe Defense Bases :

A65 (17,10)
A68 (16,12)

There will be other active bases for players before and after the event.  For Mission purposes, please utilize the 8th and LW Airfields for mission sorties.

Aircraft Order of Battle :

All Allied aircraft are enabled at A25 base.  Bf-109s are enabled at A60.  FW-190s and Ta-152s are enabled at A68.  Bf-110s and Me-410s are enabled at A65.

It is requested that Axis players refrain from going feet dry over England until 30 minutes after launch.  Axis players are free to pursue Allied aircraft across the English Channel and to English bases.

For those accustomed to Main Arena settings, there will be some slight differences.  For those accustomed to AvA settings, there will a couple of differences.  For those accustomed to Special Events settings, there will be some differences.

Fuel Burn - 1.0
No dot radar or darbar for friendly or enemy
Killshooter will be ON
Friendly and Enemy Icon will be 3K
Auto-calibration for bombers

For those flying 8th AF, we will have 2 loaded Missions for 8th AF Bombers and Fighters if all goes to plan.  Just join the either Mission by selecting which aircraft you want.   Go to http://stevesscifishootout.forumsland.com and register to be included on the fun and details of flying an 8th AF Mission.

For those flying Luftwaffe, there is no official LW Commander.  That is an open position to be filled.  The LW Commander needs to have a plan of action and to get LW players organized to stop 8th AF.

I would like to thank the AvA staff for allowing us to use their arena.  :salute

Good hunting.

The P-38L should be removed from the plane set.

The Buffs made it back to base with some escorts.  The Luftwaffe made a valiant run at defending.


I got the kill on Stampf.  :banana:
