Printed and plan on attending.

I want to take a moment to ask (HTC or any CM who may know whats in the works) if there are any plans to make the Plan Of the Day printable from tower. The info that pops up when you first arrive into the arena? It suck to have to pop in and out of the arena to review that info.

 And will there ever be a 'foyer' or Officers Club where ALL Players arrive when they select the SEA or scenario arena from where they must pick a side or await assignment from the CM's?  IMO there needs to be a "physical" buffer area/place between the newly arrived players/participants and the ability to see the planning/organising activity of each of the sides. Untill a side is chosen and then do not allow side switching unless the CM enables it for that person(s)

You Allied opportunists didn't read the fine print   . Looks as if they will turn up the Ju88 with CM tools to give her a little more "punch"! Otherwise, looks as if B26s could be substituted. Might be hoot!

Yeah I can see it now... Ju88's flying as fast they can underneath the Lancasters and using the two MGs in the upper rear canopy to shoot down the Lancs. And the Lancs are sitting there using their forward chin turret MGs to shoot down the Ju88s....
Should rename the scenario "BATTLE OF THE MINI-GUNS!"

Pongo, think he meant this model of JU88, it doesn't have the neat 20mm cannons ("Jazz Music" or something like that)

Hey Rip,
 Don't forget us Euros, some of us insomniacs haven't missed a Friday night snapshot yet. (Can't make the more "Euro friendly" Saturday starts).

Looking forward to it.

Empty B-26's will be simulating JU-88C6 night fighters for tonight's "Battle of the Ruhr".

The sky is black, the moon is full, and the stars are twinkling bright. It's going to be an interesting night. See you all tonight!
