Hostile Shores registration is open!
« on: March 19, 2001, 11:07:00 AM »
Registration for Hostile Shores is now open. Please take the time to read the text on the registration screen, as it contains important information regarding the event as well as registration. After registering, you will get a confirmation screen containing your confirmation number. Please write this number down and keep it in a safe place. You will also get a confirmation email as well.

DISCLAIMER: The CM Staff retains the right to disqualify any registration that contains false, invalid or incomplete data. Please make sure you have every field filled out correctly before you hit the "register" button at the bottom.

There is an 8 person limit for each flight. If there are squads out there that will be registering more than 8 people, then the CO of that squad will have to register multiple times. For instance, if 308(Polish) sqdn RAF is going to register 15 pilots, then Funkedup, the squad CO, would register twice, in order to get everyone from his squad registered.

Registration will remain open until noon, EST Friday, March 23.

Here is the link for registration:

Please make sure you understand and agree to the statement about behavior on the registration page. A large scenario like Hostile Shores requires the cooperation of everyone involved to pull off successfully. It is not a free-for-all environment like the MA. Abuse of players or CM's, whether it be through foul language or continuous arguing, will not be tolerated during the running of Hostile Shores. Every participant of Hostile Shores is expected to be on their best behavior during the scenario.

No maps
No regestered user list
No...oops, just saw the Allied command staff post
No basic force info (I understand the force vaguity thing) at all
Only 3 days since initial announcement

All these things are making for a rough start from a participant end.
The squad group sign up is a great idea, but I doubt many squads have had time to coordinate.

BTW, did HTC provide accounts for the Cadets?  I would hate to think they have to command without knowing the environment.

The lack of information about maps, planes and everything else is on purpose. Please go back and read my announcement of Hostile Shores.

Registration is open for a week. If you can't get your squad organized in a week's time, I can't help you.

Yes, HTC has provided the cadets with accounts, and they have been flying AH for some time now.

Thanks Nash! <S>

Some of the information, like the setting of Hostile Shores, can only be withheld for so long, and everyone will know what planes they'll be flying shortly after registration. So, while a lot of the information won't be a secret for very long, we hope to keep each side in the dark about their enemy for as long as possible. If everyone keeps their mouth shut, it may be that in the first frame, nobody will really know what types of planes they will run into. That's what we're hoping for, and will do our best to spread confusion and mis-information.  

Btw, we have a really, really evil idea brewing that HTC is trying to implement for us. If it works as planned, it could make for some very interesting kill claims. More on that later.

This is the ultimate Fog of War situation  
You know that there are enemy out there.  You know you will have planes to fly but you are in a rear area and won't know what they are until you get your orders.  You have no idea what you will be going up against until you see it in the air  

Sign up, wait for orders and enjoy  
AND if everyone keeps quiet the other side won't know the whole picture until it happens

banana:

I've signed up No.272 Squadron, and as XO I'll be COing the squad (since Kronos our CO wants to be a normal pilot in this campaign). This isn't a problem is it?

My online handle is Koba.

Cheers mate.

Dowding, no problem at all, I saw that in your comments.
