Sunday SquadOps - Pick your sides

[ViFF]

Well, I believe that the short icon range setting used in the CT & events does the work for you.

Two opposing flights flying with 15-20k seperation will usually completely miss each other.  This is more prevalent in terrains where there is a great number of dark pixels in the ground texture allowing the "dot" to blend in. The "dot" is usually picked up because we catch it moving on the terrain.

if in this upcoming SSO the attackers would choose a low level ingress chances are they won't be spotted by the defenders if they fly above 20k...

The drawback to a 10k alt limit can present a real problem after the flights already see each other and a fight develops. Nobody would be able to extend above this alt for an advatage during the fight.

Too attack a ground target, the Jabos have to come down low, thats a given, so whats the problem? Its not like the Tiffies will drop at 25k and run home. The Jabos go low, the escorts go low, the interceptors go low...its all going to be low at some point, thats a given .

I can only see an alt limit on level bombers, representing max dropping alts, ex B-17s max at 25k.

Thats how I see it, but its not my call.

Viff,

Your comment about high CAP missing low bandits is invalid because of base flashing.

Squire,

If you accept it make no differance then there cannot be an issue with the rule can there?

WOD may be short for this Squad Ops, I will be in Florida for the whole series, and Tilt is away in Dusseldorf on the first frame.

The second frame lands on the UK con weekend. I'm not sure if Tilt has included the SSO in his diary of events, but expect a few drunken pilots from the brit squads :-)

Dstar will be the WOD CO for this series.

[ViFF]

but Gray,  when the base starts flashing then its already too late isn't it ?

Hi.

As AndyH said, I will be co-ordinating The Wings of Death for this SSO.

Despite those AWOL, we should still be able to muster about 5 pilots because we normally have a guest or two.

Allied preferred

Dark,

Could you email me an email address please.

Viff- I'd like to remind that 5th Oct is "Kipur". I'm not sure how many will show for SSO....

Grayarea- About 10k max ceilling. i fly a bit on KOTH where it's 12k for wind and i get very Clastrophobic:D  it's cool for dogfighting...expect little survivors. Alot of dissapointed pilots will go home after a very short combat. plus lots of HO's:eek:
There is very little room for tactical ingagement.
