Festers Map
« on: October 01, 2003, 04:07:00 PM »
Fester hosted H2H today on his new map.  Great Map for gameplay, had fights in minutes....A21 10K base...reminds one
of the Beta Map.  VH Bases have towns also....rolling hills for
on the deck furballs.  

Many other ideas brought forth in the Map....roads wrap around
the airbase...makes it easier to spot convoys.  GV spawns a Hoot.

I like it....instead of chasing fights...or going into a 30 to 40 plane gangbang, many smaller fights should develop.

HT has it.

they recompile it or somthing before they release it so hope it makes it into fridays terrain change (crosses fingers and prays)

i'm a bit burned out on 30 mile fight chasing of the current large arenas.


the map I made has field spaced the same distances on average as mindanao small map. and we all know what a furball mindanao is.

Fester & HiTech
This map is one of the best I have seen since Trinity was brought out. Has everthing any type of AH player could want, with tons of GV spawns, AF's to fight over and as Hajo said, finding a fight on this map will be anything but difficult. I say AH would be doing all the MA a great justice by putting this map up this friday and giving us all somthing new to fight over:D :D :D

Please please please pretty please give us this map:lol

Hell of a map Fester. Thanks for sending it to me earlier today. I just got through flying around on it offline and it was a blast; I hope it makes it into the terrain change in time.

I hate to be a killjoy... I sent HT my MA style map a month ago today but I'm not holding my breath about seeing it in the MA anytime soon. They are already late by their own schedule for AH2 and from what I gather they're all working flat out on getting it released and everything else is secondary.

Shame really because I like my map and I like Festers too after downloading it and having a look. If mine doesn't make it into the current version I plan on modifying it ASAP as soon as the new TE comes out for AH2.

mine btw: http://homepage.ntlworld.com/stant.family/Aceshigh/equinox.jpg

Looks pretty neat Fester. I like the 2 CR, 1 CA fleets, no DDs; nice touch. Rolling hills with ranges that need to be climbed over. I noticed the effort takin to lay out the GV spawns. GV spawns are set up for defenders ability to re-take a base. Also means missions that cut into GV spawn chains going to be great.

Umm nice touch on A21... 10K base for king of the mountain. It will have to go though since you don't have one for the Rook or Knight setups. If each country had 1 on each side of that mountain that would work out fine but as it is? Doubt HT will approve it.

Having the convoys around the bases is also nice. Not sure I like the ease of repairing HQ. Takes away from buff pilots enjoyment if there is no real point to setting up an HQ mission. Noticed what seemed to be an overly large amount of terrain behind the Bish setup. Might be abused by buffs climbing out in extra safe territory. Could some un-aligned towns be set out in that area to blink so such pilots could be found easier?

Oddly enough after I was viewing it for a bit AH quit to desktop for no apparent reason.

Good work sir... TY!
