Labor Weekend on The Baltic!
« on: September 03, 2024, 12:21:41 AM »
For the past 4 days I have dedicated the majority of my days to the game in a final push before I go back to work for my fall grind. The current map has been Baltic. This map provides great opportunities across multiple bases with perfectly laid distance between bases that allows momentum to build and flow as numbers or strategic bombing allows.

It has been a back and forth tug of war between all three countries. Morning Bishops have dominated the morning push. Rooks have held steady the entire map against bishop while their knight front has gone back and forth +/- 15%. The past 3 nights in a row the Knights have suffered dearly by the 2v1 fight on both fronts while little to no action takes place on the bishop rook front.

Today, the final day of the weekend, began with base defense against the morning bishlam horde. After systematically breaking them down and causing them to log, Knights rolled their front again and dug in for the long fight against the rooks.

Back and forth Knighta and Rooks traded blows capturing bases on opposite sides of the mountain wall. With each wave of new attacks on both fronts Knights repelled the aggression and launched succesful counter-attacks in a blitz that lasted more than 7 hours tonigjt.

Overall i went on 6 strat runs, 40 succesful base captures with at least 60 attempts, 100-200 kills between both accounts. Dictating the eb and flow at times entering God mode while still getting shot down.

Think my favirite sortie was when rooks were swarming and I timed a x2 b29s Vh/FH shutdown along the front and white flagged at 108 while knights swarmed the base. For 30 minutes prior leading up to that rooks had +30 in the air from 5k to 20k along the whole front pushing knight bases. Being able to time that attack and actually make that all work in conjucture with numbers was awesome.

Great action, excellent execution of battle plans, and strategic arieal dominance against unfavoring odds. Knights are truly the best country in Aces Higjh :rock


New video uploaded yesterday from girst night of North America Map this past July. Nothing special but it shows just how much chaos still exists in the game today.  :salute

I think I spent most if the night at prime time shooting field guns, and getting shot by them in a A5, with occasional dogfights. Cleared all but 2 guns solo at 108 prior to the wall of knits coming in.

There’s a group in tune with each other that can do some rampages. Plenty of action ziz-zagging two fronts.
