I know, im just teasing. ive seen you fly many different planes.

question 1: I have a terrain that's small with 4 airbases, but flat ground. nothing to hide behind, nothing to dodge. 2 planes for each side, must be axis vs allies planes, same year frame. 4 bases close proximity to each other.

option 2: I build a terrain, 4 bases close proximity, put in a city or skyscrapers or hills or 4000ft walls. low alt, dodge trees and building setup like we normally have.

please give us your input.

The second option sounds the best, imo. All I'm really saying is that getting ganged by a spit8 and a Ki43/a6m every sortie is tiring, and I'd prefer not to have to resort BnZ or being in a Ki43 myself to compete... Y'all wouldn't want that. Definitely think y'all got the right idea with the maps though!

For just straight up fighting I would like to see a rolling hills setup. This brings the ground more into play as a weapon. Roll off one way and you are splat..... roll the other and you are golden. By a few feet.

Do not mess with MNM though.   :aok

Canyon fighting is always good. We used to meet in the DA with a group of like minded individuals. We would fight in the canyon and not go up over the ridge. Lot of fun was had back then.

This got me to thinking back when the 80th met up with the Muppets. All in heavy bombers and we started dogfighting. That was a hoot.

That's sort of the point to my post. Limiting the plane selection to more balanced matchups makes for much better fights without having to result to flying the easiest turny plane or resulting to BnZing to compete.

Hiya boys

OM...I'm always lurking the boards :evil:

Old computer finally died and I'm getting a little more freetime in the evenings now that #1 daughter has been off to college..... so the itch is starting to return :old:  Old computer that couldn't handle the new AH finally died, and built a new one couple weeks ago.  So far I've downloaded the latest version, but grounded until I get some rudder pedals...either bought, or built...checking home built plans now.

Hope to see you all soon

Let me know if you build!! I’d like to give that a try   My legs are in a way that I can’t get my feet together enough to use a standard rudder pedal. So I need to build something.
