I log in to my squad channel and see who is on. While I listen to the chatter in the background I am checking the map for who is winning and where the large dar furballs are. Dependent of the chatter and mood of the channel and country I will:
Look for bases to attack or defend which are NOT in large dar areas. Why go where people already are, be suprising!
Check map topography for missions which will help the country in some strategic way. (Check bmbr clearances & GV roads)
Ask if anyone on channel is up for Round Robins. (A very FUN way to play the game!!! Ask a 49er for details)
POST MISSIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Most people just want competent coordination. Post one only if u know what your doing,
or no one will ever join you again. It's like you get blacklisted for being ignorant.
The 49th FG is back to the Knights until Halloween and we run missions all the time! Please, fell free to join us. If we're not already running a mission like the same aircraft lineups you mentioned; ask us to and we will. Usually, every mission we run in aircraft are started that way. Round Robins are also something you would greatly ENJOY!!! I play 7 days a week for at least 5 hours a day and shockingly still have a girlfriend and sex-life. I would suggest you join a squad though, or at least find one to hang out with. The 49th, when not functioning together, are usually in different tactical sets of 3 to 6 people. Meaning, some will be winged up dog fighting, some will be bombing, some will be GVing, and some will inevitably be on a road trip deep behind enemy lines sending postcards from their strats. We do to much to write here, you should definitely check us out again if you have been found wanting. That goes for anyone else who reads this as well. We usually have 2 or more people online from 7am to 3 am, (yes that's 20 hours a day).
