With 1.5 out and I am looking for ways to make the Check 6! events more popular. In the past they have been a "3 hour historical arena" with moderate success. What would make them more interesting to you and your squad? What would it take for you to log on "Sunday" with the intention of flying in Check 6!?
If you don't know what a Check 6! event is then look here (http://events.hitechcreations.com/).
It is my hopes that we will have a Check 6 every Sunday, but that will be impossible with out player support and participation. Of course the same is true of the Snapshots, but they are not in the position of being canceled for lack of participation.
Thanks for your time,

Truly superior pilots are those who use their superior judgment to avoid those situations where they might have to use their superior skills.

daddog for me personally if you give an account of a real event and then provide accurate planes i want to re-enact it for fun.
there was a convoy to resupply malta with spitfires during the war and the fleet was attacked all the way there.this could make an interesting snapshot with LW divebombers etc.
Dont know if we can have fleets in med tho?
i liked market garden etc because they tried to match real events.

I would open up the possibility of squad logging. Reserving slots for squads that want to fly altogether.
Cheers,

Well i would say a more structured and more objectiv centered event is at need...
The first writeup going in that direction would be Stalingrad:
Stalingrad - Turning point of the eastern front (http://events.hitechcreations.com/checksix/stalingrad/default.htm)
Is THAT what the community wants ?

IMO, there must be a tangible goal for each side. Be it a successful defense or offense either way. And the players fill in the details on how to get it done. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
It would help if HTC could fiddle with the configurable arena settings. In other words even though they are small points they add up. For instance only have the planes that are enabled displayed in the hangar. Same with the ordinance. One biggy would be the ability to rename fields and ports to something other than an alpha-numeric.
And the ability for the CM to load whatever terrain they though applicable (from an approved and tested list) would be the best improvement over all.

Hey Dad,
Would it help to have a smaller map? Say like Luzon2?
The smaller map would add some strat back into the play, given the smaller # of participants.
It would also make it easier to find cons without dar on.

Hazed hit the sweet spot! (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
Read the AAR for Snapshot Market Garden Supplies, this topic on 12-9-00 (make sure you show topics...at least 30 days)
That was a great event, cat and mouse until the end. No radar..and I bet Daddog was ROFL watching Axis and Allies get sooo close and still not find each other until the end.
Please, We need more Snapshots/Check 6 and other HA events several time each week. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
I really believe....build events....give it several weeks/months....they will come.
