I heard that when the AK's revised the Pizza map that there were two submitted revisions, the one we play on now and another one with base altitudes not in the extreme.  Don't know why that one got passed up in favor of the current revision.

muck... I am glad that you had a good time.   I would do nothing to deprive you of having your hair stand on end... I would not remove any lbluffs for you to clear.... I wouldn't stop yu from taking off as far away from the action as possible if that is what is excieting to you.   If the 5 maw per toolshed formula is what you enjoy then have fun... I wouldn't stop you from getting up 30 guys and hitting a small undefended field.

I am asking for closer fields that aren't porked so that I can have some fun too tho.  too much to ask?

HTC should make a real furballing map with AH:C. long enough to last a good prime time but resetable enough to not drive the straters up the wall a whole week/weekend.

They need to fix the vbase mannable aaa and the gv spawns.

Some snow on Trinity too.

Snide comments aside and ignored as per the norm.

Apparently, having fields closer together is too much to ask, as I've not seen it get done in the year you've been lobbying for it.

I'm not trying to analyze you here, Lazs, but maybe you've exhausted the simple pleasure of the game. Maybe you've gotten all that AH can offer, and simply cannot garner anymore.

Before the buff mission last night, I upped from a rear field in an F6F, flew for about 40 minutes, got 1 kill and landed. I still get a thrill out of runs like this. Maybe it's because I have not been flying fighters as long as you have.

You seem like you're out of challenges. Like there are no mountains left to climb, yet you keep on trying to create them, ie. this "Get 2  kills in every plane this tour" mission you're on.

What's going to happen if they did move the fields closer together? What will you yearn for when you can start shooting as soon as your wheels are up, and you get bored of that?

BTW, why don't you add "Move the fields closer together" to your Sig. It will save you time in typing it 20 times a day. :D

Muckmaw!  Sounds like an excellent mission you had there. And I don't begrudge your success even though I'm a Bish. That's what I like to see - a well planned and well executed effort.

As for finding fights, just start hitting an enemy base. Enemies will start upping from adjacent bases. That's when I like to be around in a high P47 to pick 'em off. Lazs, to avoid being offended, please skip the purple text.

I'm a so-so pilot, never will be an ace, struggle with plane dots what with middle aged eyesight, but even I have had 10 kill sorties in that P47. No big deal, some might say - but that was on the pizza map. The point being that if I can do it, so can anyone.

OK Lazs, you can come back now.

MiniD is right, and Lazs is being a bit rediculous. In fact Lazs is in no way threatened by the pizza map - it's just plain rediculous.

He doesn't want it to be resettable, since that would imply base porking and taking.  He wants a never-ending furball.

And, he's still a jerk.

muck.. i believe that we may see some changes in the infinity map.  those changes may amount to some closer fields.  

As for what I will do.. well... if you did furball you would realize that every fur is different but... getting to the furball is allways the same.  

I got no problem with fields being captured so long as there is a good one for me to take off from... if there isn't then the reset should be immenent.   A bunch of useless fields more than a sector apart with 25% fuel is not conducive to a good time for furballers.

Gotta agree. I like the Trinity map too. Yes the furballs are over the same bases all week but you are assured a fight. WIth the added CV we should all be happy. Add tank town to the mix and it should be perfect when updated.

WTG Lazs! I'm very impressed. A clear, concise, and well thought out answer, with out a snide comment.

If you honestly thing moving the fields closer will help the furballers, leave the strat game unaffected, and not make the field porking situation worse, then how can I be against it?

I was serious about that first line too. I'm impressed. You sure you don't want to call me a skill less fluffer or something?;)
