How bout an early war arena?
« on: July 03, 2000, 08:39:00 AM »
Tired of the same ol same ol in AH?   Figured out yet that plane additions are at a dead end pretty much?   Well....  How bout an early war arena?  Yep, Spit ones, Hurri's, F4F-3's, P40's and 39's... Zekes and vals and Me110's and 109E's and Mig ones an.... Well, the list is long.

A seperate arena.   A whole different type of fighting.  More action with some fancy acm and furious furballing.   A whole new set of planes with a different mindset.  Maybe a map with the fields closer together for the early rides so that their slower speeds don't become too frustrating.

I'll play.

Was thinking maybe the PAC could be early war stuff when it comes out.  It would be a nice change for those who like Japanese planes to have an (historic) advantage.  I'll fly F4F's and P-40's for them to shoot at.

thanks for the support guys... i really do want a "general early war' arena tho where all early war rides can exist.   A place where ACM get's a shot at being a skill like patience and squad choice are  "skills" in the late war arena.

Would love the early war option. Especially so if it was setup on axis vs Allied lines.
With rotateing terrains per TOD, like BOB, CBI, N Africa, etc, it would rock!

It's hard enough just to get a few people to fly 109f's vs spitv's in H2H for even one round.  Maybe the mission builder/arena controls will get easier to use inorder to have fewer planes possible at times.  Otherwise its ffa and blow'm away.

<shameless plug on>

If ya give me some arena keys, I'll set up a daily/weekly T&B delight with what we have.  Spit 5 vs 202.  We could run for a few hours a day to let people slosh it out, then switch it up once more planes come up.  Historical matchups only of course.
