All I'll say is that I am the road block right now.  We can't put out the new version until I've completed the new terrain, which takes forever to do.  Also, I was absent part of last week having surgery done on my sinuses (yummy), so please be patient!  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/redface.gif)

Dont wanted to be a pain killer  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) I really believe that the only thing HTC lacks somehow is in information about the next releases' situation.

keep the good work HTC  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) I only wanted to know if it was something to wait for soon  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

I was absent part of last week having surgery done on my sinuses

Two words for you: Outpatient Surgery.

This obvious lack of dedication can only be attributed to improper motivation.  I highly suggest that HT resumes the flogging until both output and moral improves!

I've already got a black eye.  No flogging necessary.   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)  I am working hard to get it done this week, but I can't promise anything.  Also, I made some changes to the airfields.  They now will have taxi ways, hangers for the bombers, and the ack will be easily visible from high alt.  It will still be 3 countres.  We have no plans to change that format.

Question: Do planes spawn from revetments or on the runway? Piecing this tapestry suggests that:

A) Spawn points are destructable, closing fields;
B) Taxiways suggest the path traveled from revetments.

Why ask? Assuming the above is correct, field capture might take place like this:

1.) Bomb ack
2.) Destroy vehicles already launched, while;
3.) Destroying spawn points
4.) Drop/deliver troops (white-knuckle halftrack ride from nearby city?)

Destroying spawn points is a small point I'm curious about. Of course one could bomb them from alt, but what size bomb is needed? Will it finally be that rockets have a use?

Will Halftracks carry troops capable of field capture? Could this be taken a step further and allow cities, even the HQ, to be taken by ground forces? Does Coke really taste better than Pepsi?  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Will the starting point for our planes be in the hangers then? I always got a kick out of taxiing to the runway in Warbirds, when it was implemented for a short time. T'would be nice to see that again.

Planes will start at revetments along the side of runways.  The bombers will start in the hangers.  I don't know about destroying spawn points, that's a pyro question.

Why do I get this feeling that this will be the best release so far in AH, the sim is growing up  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

Now that we get new airfields I can admit, "Yes I hated the layout on the old fields", now there it is said  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Sounds really good with the new ones, I loved the off runway start in WB when we had it, and it will be great to have it back.

I am really looking forward to this release  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
