It would do wonders for AH... especiallyi if accompanied by an in-depth look at Hitech's background in the industry. You ought to see if Enigma might sponsor a look at AH with a specific date/time for a joint mission in AH like he did with 1946. He went to a lot of trouble providing info on setting 1946 up for those who didn't know (I didn't fly his event(s) but it's how I learned about a lot of the addon/mod stuff). There's potential there, considering the Arena numbers that AH can handle makes all the competition pale in comparison. Just don't tell NOBODY about channel 200.... or the forums here. There's also plenty of potential for casual visitors to get run off posthaste.
He has 25k subscribers and that video got almost 8k views in the first day. It would be great exposure for HT.
And I would find the discussion very interesting myself.
I told him to have him on separate from Wild Bill. He'll get better stories that way.
Enigma was a big WWIIOL fan and still plays IL2 GB and 1946.
He had apparently tried AH at some point but didn't seem to click with him. I've tried to find out more about why it didn't. He doesn't seem to mind the idea of subscription. Only other guess is the 3-sided chess piece war. I can see him wanting AvA like WWIIOL and IL2.
I suggested he take a look at AHIII and give it a review but he said he doesn't have time to install another game. OK. I get it.
I was looking at 1946 but told the forum guy I was conversing with I wasn't going to bother with the patches. Since I wasn't planning to play it, only wanted to examine it, I get his position. Only so many hours available.
But Online Combat Sims, their comparative designs, and their history are his interest so I didn't want to push it and hope he at least does the interview someday.
It would be a crime against humanity to let Wild Bill define the narrative of those early days.
