Congratulations to Gremlin with 89 Total Objects Destroyed!!!!
Congratulations to KRILLEN with 2548 Total Objects Destroyed Points!!!!
Thanks to all who came out for the event. It was a very tough event with the Object Hardness turned up and players landing a Stuka with no tail hook. There were many rearms but only 3 rearm bonuses were given out to meet the 10 minutes span between launch and rearm or between to rearms. There were many rearms that fell short just under a minute or lesser.
Bedside's the auto ack guns that I destroyed before the event that had no point values, every Hangar, Field Strat, manned guns, AND all Town Buildings were completely destroyed at a Large Airfield!!!! Complete Total Annihilation!!!!! Well done to all who participated.
When that fact became known, there was immediate vox channel talk for a capture. I made a close high altitude base on the island friendly and made the call for everyone to tower out. A Bonus Base Capture event was started with 5 players. We launched our C-47s and races to A33 with the capture bonus of 1000 pts. I changed the map room capture to 25 troops and the race was on. We all dropped our troops and Normandy was in the air. However, all 50 troops went in the map room and nothing happened. Due to my tiredness, I realized that I put in the wrong number and figured it was going to take 250 troops. 3 of us reupped new C-47s and tried for a second time. I changed the value for 75 troops and the 3 of us left let out 30 more in the air. Again, no luck with 2nd attempt. we figured that a change in value might have negated the first 50. We ended the event there on that note. Had it worked OK, that would.ve been a blast to cap the event.
Next Total Annihilation event will be Sunday June 15th at 8PM CST/7PM CST. Aircraft will be the Boston III. The Terrain will be Riftval. There is a north Strat circle of factories, HQ and the F Field guns. On the west side and east side are two high altitude airfields which will be the launch bases. After a tough event in May, the June event will be a cake mission. With a good turnout, there will be some fighting for pieces of cake.
