Anything non-symmetrical and caters specifically to me.

Still haven’t gotten my White Castle at refueling station. Little disappointed.

I also want my own hanger with my name on it.

Obviously I’m easy to please

old CraterMA, for the crater
Compello, for the 85 GV spawn
Ozkansas, for the 135/136 GV spawn area

Jimmy is there a place where you can see the maps and names?

All the maps can suffer with a run of country imbalance.  The old map(ndilse SP?) last night was a good example of a good and bad map.  Too easy during side imbalance to push a country out of good play both air and ground.

All maps I have had good and bad play even the pizza map. 

One person on the forum suggested tracking player number and kills for each map to help identify problem arears.

In general, I like air and GV bases that have reasonable access to air cover with  radar rings almost touching.  Change ammo bunkers back or change to time down like hangers.   Do not have so many bases with GV spawns right in front of town.  This is especially true with no close air bases.

Jinx, nice to "see you" again my friend. What you are describing, is first the old Tank Town layout we had in AH2 for CraterMA. I have a picture of the old Compello map, but it will have to be re-done from scratch to get it up and running (not an impossible task). I remember the Ozkansas map, but don't have a copy or picture of it.

I have been talking to Hitech, and he supports getting a new Tank Town tile. I just have to take the time  to do it. I do have a picture of the old AH2 Tank Town, so I do have something to work with.

Would love to see you back in the game, if not drop by every now and then.  :salute

I forget the name of the map but you could spawn in either in the valley or up on the mountain and angle down and shoot.

Baltic, Monthis, Northco, and Ndiesles a close 4th. Really like maps with canals and channels espcially if a CV can fit through. The channel area on the east side of the Baltic map is probably my favorite location. When the #s are high in that area is makes for some awesome battles.

I like big maps that I can sneak bases and attack a different base in case we get any resistance :police:

1. Baltic
2. NDIsles
3. Pizza
4. ETOMA
5. North America (less bases would make it higher)

Love the old school. I think Baltic and ND have some of the best parity but they are tough when a hoard is present.
Back in 2022 after a loooooong break from 2010. Old name Ratpack, same for the BBS.

Squad I did the most tours with were the Excaliburs then The 172nd Rabid Dogs. Still trying to talk Illigaf, Coola, Oldman22, and Joecrow into coming back instead of being boring old farts!

Thank you Fugitive for the  map reference.

Good time as well to thank all map makers no matter how  they turn out.
