I'm looking to working alongside another squadron(s) for my 47 Ronin "Squad Night"
each Thursday night at 9PM Eastern for some "joint operations".
This cooperative effort will see each squad assigned a particular task for the main
mission. This could be a separate fighter sweep to BARCAP between an enemy
airfield and a second field we might be trying to capture. It could be direct fighter
escort, it could be your squad in bombers for the hour or two it will run.
I would be responsible for working up the "OPORDS" for each week's mission(s)
as well as the plane set to be used for that night. ie: it might be German or Japanese
themed, etc.. and getting them out to the squadron COs a couple of days in
advance for forwarding to their pilots.
It is my thought that fleshing things out a bit, and involving other Rook squadron(s)
will result in some fun missions/strikes and may allow to a smaller degree, an
operational level of operations on the map. ie: op(s) not directed at a single
field, but spread out over several sectors.
I'm not looking for a "horde" and these will not be "strat" or "HQ" runs.
Squadron Commanders who would like to give this a shot are encouraged to
PM me here on the board and include their squadron name, in-game handle and email
address. The email address will be used to disseminate the OPORDS each
week which will also include each squadron(s) planes/tasks for the evening.
Depending on the level of interest, I think we can do a lot of fun stuff
cooperatively and beyond that, meet and fly with folks we don't normally
have the opportunity to fly with in the main arena.
If you've got a pure "fighters only" squadron, there's a place for you.
If you've got a "GV operations only", there's a place for you.
Your squad does only bomber ops? No problem, there's a place for you.
If you've got only two guys in your squad, perfectly fine. I'm not
concerned about size. My main concern is coordination and cooperation.
I think we can have a lot of fun with this right out of the gate.
Best regards,
Oddball
Commanding Officer
The 47 Ronin
