Ever flown on the Winter Rhine Map?
Does your Squadron enjoy Friday Squad Ops?
Do you enjoy when all the “baddies” represent the correct historical foemen?
Would you rather conduct offensive and defensive Operations around Strategic Targets, rather than simply grab land?
Does your lederhosen drip when the beautiful wings of a Spitfire take leave of the fuselage?
Enjoy nothing more than pwning those 190 dweebs?
Ever engaged 30 plus, heavily escorted Fortresses at 28k? (and lived to tip a pint with your mates afterwards)?
Join the BoA in the AvA arena beginning this Friday, May 30th, and running 24 hrs every day for the next three weeks, and join in on what promises to provide some of the best action packed combat available in game.
Bring your Squadron, join an existing one, request admittance to the private side forums, and help your side strategize their way to victory. Earn campaign ribbons, prestige, and economical growth for your side through your efforts. Practice up for the coming CT, and…Create the Experience!
Battle of Aces
How the Battle is Conducted:
1. The War is announced and scheduled for a three round event. Each round lasts one week.
a. Two week prior, Commanders are appointed with at least two XO's.
b. Players can sign up for each side and get added to the respective forums.
c. Each side is also informed of the war map for planning purposes.
2. Strategic objects broken down on each side and given a % value.
a. Commanders are then informed of their own value and the value of their opponents objects.
b. Each side is recommended to plan their strategy and give it to the squadrons to deploy their own tactics.
3. Each side is given $1,200,000 to spend.
a. The spreadsheet is used to pick their weapons to begin the war with field placements (one field per pick).
b. The spreadsheet is submitted to the respective AvA staff member NLT Wednesday prior to the war starting for upload the next day (Thursday/Friday).
3. At the end of every week (Thursday), a tally of strategic % is done.
a. Both sides start off with $1.2 million + any unspent funds from the previous round.
b. At 100%, Commanders can maintain existing setup or make changes as long as it doesn't exceed their budget.
c. Anything less, Commanders re-do the setup to their current budget amount.
d. If both sides have reduced strategic objects, both sides loose money.
e. Commanders must submit their spreadsheets NLT 5pm on Friday for changes.
f. All strategic objects are reset and the war begins again.
g. A winner of the week is announced based on the % of strategic objects damaged.
4. The following arena settings are set:
* Field capture is turned off.
* AAA is set to .333 (bases are not capturable, and you can't hide in your AAA).
* Object hardness for strategic objects are set to downtimes of 3 days (4320 minutes) with a hardness of a 500lb bomb each (0.500).
* Downtimes for ALL objects are AvA norms - 60 minutes (yep- 60 minutes is the norm).
* Environmentals may change - wind, clouds, grey skies week to week, day to day.
* Fuel burn is set to historical levels
* Morning is 8am and Evening ends at 4pm.
5. Commanders are responsible for ensuring their budget sheets are submitted on time. It can also be delegated to an XO.
6. The winner is announced at the end of week 3 based on the best 2 of 3 rounds.
7. Campaign ribbons are awarded to all players (based on forum access) and winning side medals are awarded. A new squad-based award is to be handed out as well based on their performance during the war and from any recommendation from a CO or XO.
8. Every once in a while, Commanders can run special missions with announced targets. AvA support staff may enable special features for this effort with bonuses for both sides on a successful mission.

BnZ'd durch 190 für 30 Minuten überhaupt erhalten, um auf seinen sechs nur zu erhalten und zu haben ihn Stir seine Weise an seinem eigenen ack festhalten zu lassen?
Mit jedem porked Radar überhaupt kämpfen und ein p51 schließlich finden, um ihn am ersten Anblick nach Hause laufen nur zu lassen?
Möchten überhaupt 2 1-/2stunden vergeuden, die gerade 15 b17s bis zu 30k klettern, um irgendeine lahme Schweinefleischarbeit auf einem undefended Anfangsziel zu erledigen?
Wenn dieses Spaß dann scheint, ist der AvA Kampf der Kerben die Sache für dich.

No you read it correctly Von...though I had to break out the Pig German book of lousy translations just to figure out it was another typical negative, out of touch reply.
Man Law Von,...Man Law.

Going from a verbatim translation.....
"BnZ' D by 190 for 30 minutes at all received, in order to have only received on its six and to have let it hold Stir its way to its own ack? With everyone porked at all fight to radar and a p51 finally find, in order it at the first sight home run to only leave?
Like at all would 2 1/2-grant to waste, which climb straight 15 b17s up to 30k, in order to settle any lame pork work on one undefended an initial goal?
If this fun seems then, the AvA fight of the notches is the thing for you."
Pig German, indeed! It sounds like Yoda on crack with something resembling a knockwurst shoved in his mouth, attempting to speak German.

What I find most amusing is that someone thought it was awesome :rofl
Wenn Sie versuchen werden, auf Deutsch zu sprechen oder zu schreiben, tun Sie es bitte richtig.
Danke, und haben Sie einen schönen Tag

Notches? We don't need no stinkin Notches... :rofl

if it was translated correctly, it reads perfectly fine. verbatim translation doesnt work with german because of the way they form sentences.
<edit>PS. it just a joke anyway. relax and have fun!!
-
Thats Awesome VWE!!! :aok
And What do you find Awesome about that post Jaeger? Another AvA bashing post by JG54. Right on bro! :aok

Ummm read my last post, please. :)

I understand this :noid
schließen Sie die Tür = Close you the door. Shut the door. This is why the Pennsylvania German farmers say things (in English) like "Throw the cow over the fence some hay"
I am referring to words used like STIR, PORKED, and UNDEFENDED, all of which are still in English.
Like Stampf said, Pig German.
P.S. : VWE, I still think you have one of the top 3 signatures of all time. :aok
Jager, you on the other hand worry me. :noid

trust me, its all in fun, not trying to upset anyone. besides we got you guys to actually go try to translate it. so you learned something today. gotta love america: land of the free, home of the brave, ability to learn something new all the time. :) have a great day!! :D
-
Its a good thing none of you guys are really German. :rolleyes:

Try is the key word. It is more like UN-translating badly translated gibberish.
As for learning something......German has been spoken in my household for longer than I have been around, and still is. The only thing I learned is that there must be some crappy English to German translator sites out there.
-
Its a good thing none of you guys are really German. :rolleyes:
By this I assume you mean born and raised, and not 1st or 2nd generation.
I only speak for myself, but............
If it's the former, than you are correct.
If the latter.....Sie werden in hohem Grade, mein Freund verwechselt.

Who says none of us is german? :lol
I'm willing to bet a lot of YOU guys have some german blood too...
