Wouldn't it be fun if someone like that existed? A virtual callsign you could tune to, and ask questions?

That would open many possibilities for getting information easier than from the strat menu, and it also could answer easy howto questions.

A45 FUEL
At a45 75% is available.

A38 weather
A38 is clouded, cloud level is 8k.

radar sector 7.5
enemy aircraft: 0k-5k: 2, 5k-10k: 1, 10k-20k: 0, 20k+: 0
friendly aircraft: 0k-5k: 1, 5k-10k: 0, 10k-20k: 0, 20k+: 1

locate ccvi
ccvi is in 109g10 at 6.4, 8k, heading 030

a42 status
within 5 miles there are 6 enemy aircraft, 2 friendly aircraft, 3 enemy ground vehicles and 1 friendly ground vehicle

I LOVE the strat idea...

was thinking that myself for a month or 2 now. how about just adding this to start....

.strat XXX (XXX=base #)

HOST: Base XXX fuel 75% ammo troops FH VH BH

-or-

HOST: Base XXX fuel 25% ammo BH

second response has no FH or VH listed meaning they are not avaliable also troops not mentioned because they are not available

I agree, good idea on the .strat, also a friendly .locate would be nice. Also a .weather would be cool.
