Why not move the bases farther apart and put a fighter only base between with limited plane set for defense of farther base.

The fighter base can not be captured but can be stopped by taking out hangers.

If the bad guys manage to take the rear base, fighter base defaults with it.

This might also promote better buff raids and fighter escort.

batz... interesting opinion but not born out by the facts.. The best fights in the arena are at the cv's right now. People have a ball at those fights those who act as you say just don't get into the action and are ignored. I think that the fights could be improved if some of the suggestions here were taken tho such as not being able to bring the cv so close as to have overlapping ack. but that has allways been suggested from time to time. No problem with that from anyone I have seen...

those who don't like to fight, the sky accountants and the terminaly timid... would still have the rest of the map to hide from eachother in.

Yeah your right we never see guys auger in to kill a cv, it never happens. I dont have any films of dive bombing lancs killing cvs either.......

As for cvs being the best fights no way a8 / a27 and a4 / a5 on the island are some of the best fights ever in ah.

CVs take take 8k bombs to kill and thats it. You then wait 15min for it to jump back to port and another hour for it to cross 1 sector.

Atleast at airfields you only gotta wait 30 min for the hangers to rebuild.

But I am sure your right a map with a bunch CVs (which would be easy as hell to make) would end all the pork and auger.

But wth make a cv map and see if ht goes for it.

Sax that might be cool a main field with several satelite fields around it. But then they would just go after the fuel at the sat fields and they would be worthless.

batz... not sure what your point is... i am as against suicide guys killing the cv as anyone same for a squad of suicide jabos killing a fields fuel or fh's... it happens but... not every time.. not even most or at least, not for a while.

last night at 145 was an over an hour slugfest with a cv parked off the coast... it of course was the only fight worth a damn in the whole infinity map too... there was no problem with the cv being too close and the numbers were about even and large... not many dweeby pt's... over an hour before som attention starved or well intentioned idiot sunk the cv...

We knew it was about over tho when the 190's and typhies and such came in from another field at high alt and tried to horn in on the only action on the map but they were a minor annoyance.

Anyone who participated (with the possible exception of said terminally timid late war jocks and missguided strat people) had a friggin blast.. musta been 40 people all having fun in one little spot while the rest of the terminaly boring infinity map was doing it's best to showcase either gangbanging strat methods or the skill of hiding from each other or.... testing compression speeds of late war ac.
