Title: Attention all Rooks, your country needs you. Bishops & Knights ignore.
Post by: Kazaa on February 23, 2006, 10:57:17 AM
Guys as you all may know, I have set up some really great missions lately & have had A lot of fun & success doing them. :aok

I want to try & make this A permanent thing, at least once a week or even once A day if possible, yesterday was the best yet, having 21 buffs above Bish land.

If you have any ideas on missions  & tactics, then let me know.

P.S, I’m not going to post them on the forum, because it would be just dim for reasons we all know why, so look out for them in the text bar. :p

Couple of screens from last nights, if anyone can post them, I would be really grateful.

~S~ too all the guys that took part last night, Zaphod, Dazycutr, HG3Lips,  Swampy12, Boozwah, morgal.

~S~ Kazaa.

As far as time goes, its A bit of A pickle. :D

As I’m from across the pond, the missions usually run as late as possible (London time), this is because most players that take part are from America, so this allows for everyone to take part.

I’m expecting that the big spectacular missions will be held on the weekends, so all the guys that may work late hours on A weekdays will get A chance to take part as well.

Other then that, I cannot say. I might try to get A list of e-mails form both individual players & squads & set it up in advance, with full blown out mission briefs, including pretty pictures of course. :aok


P.S, outbreak, keep your nose out ! lol :p

Our 1st HQ raid that we done was A great success, we had 5 sets of formation B24's A downed A good dozen or so fighters with only 1 lost as we hit the target. :p

After we ran out of ammo the game was up lol, I personaly took down 4/5 planes 3 163's included. :D

1 bomber droped on target, the rest where too busy to blink. tracers where all over the sky.
 
Ill see if I can get the video off A fellow squad member, it makes great viewing. :aok

I too have been flying on a lot of missions that people have been posting up, and it is been a lot of fun.  The other night we flew all la7 misson and ran into a big Bish tiffy raid coming from the other direction.
Flying about i think it was 15 p51 and we ran into another 20 or so nik and more 110's comming in.
Bombing bases with 15 ju87's ended up taking the base.
Bombing with 29 formation of lans just slow down the continues base losses.
Or doing just somthing silly like droping troops from 18 k at FT with 21 goons just see the bish comments at ch 200.

Yeah the list goes and it's been a lot of fun.

Now i dont know if you have alredy heared about the Loose Cannons Alliance in the Rook Country. It's not a squad no Co or Xo basically just a loose alliance of rooks that get togeather and have some fun. About 10 to 15 players that just hang out on channel 111 just about all the time.  If you have an idea just somthing in mind and think would be fun to do tune 111. The more fun the mission is more pepole will join in.

Thats nothing, a month or two ago, i set up a 20 squad co-op in Bishland.  Had over 100 buffs and 100 fighters all in a small area.  And it wasnt a gaint horde at one base, we hit 10 bases at the same time.  Did it once to the Knights and Rooks!  Most fun i have ever had in the MA!  Looken to setting up some more for the future!!

Kazaa,

Tune in to 111. You won't be sorry!

We've been posting bigger and bigger missions each evening and, to be quite honest, I'm beginning to wonder just how big this thing is gonna get.  Its getting increasingly difficult to organize such large numbers of people and coordinate attacks.  But heck, that part of the fun!

The biggest mission numbers typically occur Friday and Saturday evening.  Our bomber missions alone average 20 sets of planes (60 aircraft + 14 1000# = 840 bombs).  We hit a record a week or so ago when we upped 23 sets of Lancasters and decided to hit 5 bish bases simultaneously.  Sure, the furballers yelled and screamed at us as we closed the bases and suspended the vulch-fest but what the heck...WE had a good time!  We want to put together a 50 player bomber mission and really break the record! (300 planes - wow!)

But we have a bunch of other 'boilerplate' missions that we routinely run too and they are all a real blast.  I think our current favorite is what we affectionately call a "Looney Gooney".  Its a real hoot! We laugh alot during these missions and have a great time - and that's the REAL reason I pay to play.  For the FUN.

We have a web site and we share the URL with regular participants on Vox.111 so they can access some stuff we've prepared.  It has a bunch of custom downloads designed specifically for our missions ... with more to come.

Since our little alliance started, things have gotten big fast and I have to restructure the site to allow for more growth.  I'm redesigning it now.  Once its done and all secured where it needs to be I'll distribute the URL more broadly.

And Dark, that was the best interception mission I've ever flown.  We had something like 15-20 P-51D and P-51B models flying an interception mission in tight formation when, low and behold, beneath broken clouds we spot about 20 Niks heading the opposite way below us.  Meat on the table. We had about an 5-6K alt advantage and the best B&Z plane in the game to wreak havoc with. It was an awesome sight!  I felt like I was over the south Pacific in 1944.  We peeled off and had at em!  I only bagged two of the varmints though. :(  Gotta make an avi of that movie sometime.  It would make a great game intro to share with non-subscribers.

We also ran a Bish HQ mission.  We closed the bish HQ ourselves last night in a two phase attack.  We upped 17 sets of B-24's and made it to the target.  We sported a nice, tight formation ( something we've been doing during all missions BTW) that looked pretty cool and impresive.  Two of our groups survived.  Unfortunately, the bish resupplied the HQ and it only stayed down for a little while.  But we had a BLAST getting there.  If the dang vox had only held out!!H&*&%$&^

Hope to see you on the channel Kazaa.  If lots of players working together as a team is your thing, you won't be disappointed.  We have BIG plans for this little group. ;)
