Fantasy Squad League - AHFSL
« on: February 27, 2015, 08:33:49 AM »
Or ‘An exercise for those adept at parsing scripts’

Overview:  With the popularity of Fantasy Football & Fantasy Baseball, and with the plethora of statistics available, or calculable, on the players of Aces High, it only seems fitting that such statistics could be categorized, tallied, compared, reported, and abused by our own members, or even interested observers.

So I present to you the premise of the Aces High Fantasy Squad League.

 Each league will have ‘squads’ comprised of drafted players to fit specific roles within the league definitions.  As with the ‘real’ fantasy leagues, each player can only be chosen by a single ‘fantasy squad’ owner, within that league. 

The statistics for each league will be customized for the flavor desired for that league.

There could be as many players on each squad as you’d like. Which stats you'd want tallied for each category, etc. It would be up to how the league is defined.

For instance..

A general purpose league might have

4 fighter s ( k/d, total kills, assists, hit %.. etc )
2 bombers ( damage, damage/sortie )
2 GV/Boat
2 supply/troop drivers
Squad

A fighter only  league might have

10 fighters ( kills, k/d, hit %. k/sortie )

A GV only league

8 big gun
4 AA
2 Supply/troop

 Etc..   You get the idea.

Since there isn’t really a season, a league can start and stop at any time, based on the start and stop time of each tour.

This is something that can be done completely separate of HTC so it would be up to the self-policing of those administrators for its upkeep/reporting… etc.

Anyway, just a thought..

Flame away!

This actually looks freaking awesome. Great idea!

If we got HTC to donate perk points, subscriptions, or AH swag, you could use those for prizes.

 smg, White people... :bhead
Give Skyyr a break though, he just had a near death experience from watching a youtube.




I don't dislike the idea, it would be rather tough to execute but it could be very good from an advertising standpoint.

Can't wait for this.  It'll be like reliving picking teams in 9th grade gym class, when I weighed about 100 lbs.

I actually envisioned this for FSO, 1 FSO frame being 1 game and you pick pilots from squads.

Great minds I guess.  :lol
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

This should be crammed into the wishlist/FSO forum

If there was 1 frame "let's say 3rd" where it was up to CO's to pick according to the effectiveness of their previous 2 frames "which would determine their pick order", it would be intereting way to get squads to inter-mingle more

That's kinda funny..a few weeks ago I had the same idea.  Kills = 5 points, deaths = -3, ditches = -1, ect... only do it salary cap based on statistics of pilots
