right on kieren.... what is the idea behind these suicide bombers attacking only close fields and ruining the action that has been the source of action and fun for so many?  do they simply crave attention no matter what???

Sheesh... do they think anyone appreciates them dropping the fighter hanger at a close field?   Or killing the radar... what's the point of that?   Mindless unrealistic bombing is ruining peoples fun.

Ok... maybe that was harsh (true tho) so... Ya wanna win my respect and admiration?   Wanna "help" with your bomber?  wanna add fun to the game for many?   BOMB AND CAPTURE FIELDS THAT ARE CLOSE TO ANOTHER NME FIELD AND THEN GO SOMEWHERE ELSE.  Give us mindless furballers a place to play.

Laz; we REALLY wanna give yer Amish MP's a place to play.. many times I've been on with a bunch of other guys that just wanna furball or do B&Z thru a furballand had some guy come cruise on over the source field in  a buff; no thought of coordinated field capture or strat.. just droppin eggs.. and shut down the source of my 'fun'.

For that reason I'll never lead a mission onto the big center island.. as far as I'm concerned; on this map; that damn island is utterly useless strategicly, and other than it's close proximity to a4 and a25 it has no value. Unfortunately; if strikes FROM that center island begin to hit ANY outlying fields off-island; then I move the source field onto my target list; and you can expect to see some hangers popped and fuels and barracks closed down to shut off that attack.

Maybe we can get HTC to lock out captureability and troop deployments from those bases so each country always has one each Vfield and airbase there to furball and have armor battles from. Change arena reset conditions so these fields are excluded from the reset equation.

Sound reasonable??

hang... yes it does sound reasonable.   It also would go a long way towards keeping old players and getting new ones.   No troops can leave from those fields...  they are not a threat.  put some canyons near em and make idiotic perk rides not available for several sectors and....

Simple, elegant, fair and..... obvious.   I salute u.

 Sounds like AW's Fighter Town. One atoll with one base per country, dogfighting only. Problem was, some yo-yos insisted on launching bombing raids from there, which led to retaliation, which understandably pissed off the dogfight-only crowd... I'm in favor of a small dogfight-only arena (so I can properly buff without all the whining..)  :> )

Occams razor the situation.. since buffs are stategic weapons, disable 'em on the center island.. what place do they have in a dogfight only section of the terrain?

hang... that is the crux of the situation... What point do they have being in a fighter situation indeed?   they just want the attention.  No fun to go bomb where no one sees em (or gets pissed off).  No, dissable em from those fields.  fine idea
