Two new arenas
« on: August 22, 2012, 11:31:45 AM »
European and Pacific realistic maps, same general settings as MA.

Represent each country and the fighters, bombers, GVs they used in WWII at their bases.  If you want to use a Yak, you need to go to a Russian base or a base in another country that actually had yaks stationed there.  For example, p51s were stationed in England, so make those available there.

Make the three chess pieces Allies, Germans/Italy, and Japan.

Add GV spawns across the channel to simuate ships that ferried tanks there.

Award slightly higher perks in these arenas than in MA to encourage participation.

Include cities and factories in realistic locations.

Enable us to fight WWII all over again until someone wins, then reset.  A win would involve taking 50% of opposing chess piece's bases.

That's my wish... I know about AvA, but you'll see it's empty because it is not similar to MA settings and no incentive to use it, other than special events.

Come at me! :D

What if you want to fly a Yak, but nobody is fighting Russia...they're all busy fighting in P-51's and Fw-190's? People want short transit times to the fights, and will most likely not want to fly to the other side of the map to do it in a plane they want to fly.

Shorten the distance between bases and Germany vs Russian front would be close together.

Realistic positions but shortened distances to enable less transit time.

Most of the maps in the AVA have shorter distances between fields to facilitate quicker into the fight for everyone!  Stop by and check out next time you see some bodies in there.

I bolded it.  Nobody is in AvA... Settings are not like MA.  Why does no one use it except special events?

MA maps have set criteria set by HTC which they have to follow to be an MA map. You can look them up with the search feature on here.
