Title: • HARM - AvA OpFor •

AvA OpFor:  In addition to the Saturday night strat run, we are running an OpFor operation in the AvA room on Sunday at 7:00pm Eastern.  While anyone can join the Allied or Axis mission just by showing up, it would help if you let the team leader know about your intentions beforehand so they can better organize.  Once the new map is setup on Friday the planning will start on Saturday, click the image above to go to the HARM forums for updates on the mission which will be posted late Saturday.

For this first OpFor mission the team leaders are Trukk (http://forums.hitechcreations.com/forums/private.php?s=&action=newmessage&userid=16468) and TheBug (http://forums.hitechcreations.com/forums/private.php?s=&action=newmessage&userid=6294).

For any Luftwaffe squads out there, heres your chance to hunt a huge bomber formation. You up for it?

Hi Trukk!

The AvA setup for this week can be found in here (http://forums.hitechcreations.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=201904),  so the bomber mission might work better as Axis (Ju-88) vs Allies, because there are only Bostons and IL-2's enabled for the allies - or I could enable A20 for the allied side for Sunday if that would help you guys.

Unfortunately, 7pm is a bit late for me, but that looks like fun! I hope you'll get a good attendance.

edit: I'd recommend to download the Karelia terrain before Sunday (from either the arena after Friday or from HTC's download page).

Is there a way to load a particular map in offline mode instead of the default map?

Yes, the Choose Terrain option on the clipboard (right after the game starts). When you have chosen a different terrain, launch Offline Practice and you should have a different map.

Hehe, No problems flying Ju's either. Whatever the event needs, and makes it more interesting. :)

Hopefully we will be turning this into a weekly deal on Sundays. IF we get enough interest.

I prefer the AvA room.

It would be great if we could get a good turnout
and make this a regular thing in the AvA on Sundays

367th will be there with 5 to 10+ Pilots

The way things are going, I the turnout is going to be great.  Keeping the sides balanced is going to be the tough part.  That being said, who and what do you guys want to fly?

Too bad I've got to go to work on Monday, otherwise I could stay up for the mission. After the scenarios, this looks like the most fun AH has to offer.

guys for arranging these.

I hope so, this first one is going to be interesting!  I think we will be good if we can keep the sides balanced.

The nice part is that in the AvA, you can switch sides with no time restrictions.  So, maybe a 10 minute huddle before we kick off to sort out how many to each side?

Cool, I didn't know that.  Yeah, I'll be on for about a half hour before the start and I'm hoping the squad COs will be on sooner rather than later so we can sort out any issues.

Ju88s escorted by 109g6s being intercepted by VVS fighters over the very beautiful Karelia Isthmus map, how could ya miss it??

Although it's not 8th Airforce, it's a little something to help curb the cravings for Combat Tour.  

Open to all, hope to see many of you out there!
