JG11 is looking to organize some squad vs. squad friendly scrimmages in the DA. Here is what we seek in a participating squad:
1) Maturity
This is not for bragging rights, chest thumping, "we pwn you" type ordeals. JG11 is all about historical immersion, teamwork, and seeking a good fight. We do not care who wins, we want to have fun. We are looking for a like-minded squad to duel with.
2) Numbers
Please specify what type of numbers you can bring. Our squad night is Tuesday night (US time), and we usually have 12-20 of us on. If you can't reach those numbers, that's fine, we can work out an arrangement for another night. Just be sure to specify how many you are able to bring.
3) Challenge
We have a good number of experienced pilots, and are looking for a challenge. Again, it's not about winning or losing, but having fun, and lopsided fights are not fun. So we are looking to duel a squad of relatively equal (or better) experience level.
4) A Good Attitude!
I suppose this could go under Maturity as well, but I just wanted to stress again that we hope to stress civility and perhaps make some lasting friends with other fine squads out there.
JG11 flies Luftwaffe only, and we would prefer historical matchups (although a German vs. German clash could be fun as well). As for altitude, we can go with whatever. As for advantage, I'm assuming we will do our first rounds with no advantage, but as we get more comfortable flying against each other we could mix that up as well.
If your squad is interested, please PM me
Squad versus squad duels are truly a blast. Coming from other flight sims where those were are only options for online play, I've been wishing we had them more (at all) in AH. They refine your skills, build cohesiveness in your own group, and let you interact with some other great pilots along the way.

Hi Trotter!
Baumer pointed this thread out to me. Let me ask my guys about it. I think we might like to try it. We are a very good natured squad with pretty much average sticks, who also enjoy events, so the classic match would appeal to us. Like you winning or losing would matter little to us.
Shoot me an e-mail or PM and we can go over some details. In the mean time I will see who would like to participate. :)

Mature squad? Crap, that cancels out the 479th :rofl
ack-ack

:salute
Looking forward to getting some good dogfights in.

I'll talk to the fellas of the 412th. You'll be in German iron?

Yes.
412th is Pony oriented, isn't it? JG11 vrs. 412th would make for some interesting fights. :aok
-
Mature huh? That rules out the muppets, at least as long as I'm a member.
-
What about the I/jg 2 Richtofen? That would be funny. :P
-

412th would be a welcome Adversary. :salute

would sunday nite work for you guys?
-
I'll ask MGD if he can email the Nightmares to see if anyone is interested. W like doing stuff like this from time to time. Sunday is our squad night, but Im sure those interested could be on about any time.
We all fly for fun, and as long as its set up as an historical engagement, I dont think you'd hear any crap from us. :)
-
Thinking out loud here - sounds like there is a lot of interest in this type of thing. Do we need to get a league of some type organized?
-
A squad ladder?
I would think someone would have done this in the past, but I never looked into one. Has anyone setup a squad ladder before?
Humm...
-

I believe we were looking for a fighter vs fighter event in any event.. sorry. :lol

The VF-31 are down. We responded in the “Squadrons” forum.

I'd bet there has been but, like you, I never looked into one. It would take some effort and resources to get one going. I can help with resources via netAces.

I will send you a PM hammer. :)

anything that starts Wanted: Mature ...usualy comes on these creepy cards in phoneboxes maybe im just sick minded. sorry i will leave now.

If you squint your eyes, the P-38 does kind of look like a fighter.
ack-ack

We can untape the torps we use on the towns and turn some.
We are in need of some more german yard furniture... we sold all the rest.
-
Well, I would think most squads were more laid back in this game. Rules out us too :l

Build it and they will come :aok

Kidding aside, I do recommend that squadrons that are interested to take up the JG11 offer for a squad vs. squad duel. S.A.P.P had a duel versus JG11 a few months back and it was a blast, really good fights and flying all around. Though, I wonder how JG11 managed to fly without their lederhosen bunching up on them.

A mere optical illusion.

We've done this against Precision and the 71st - very very very good fun (win or lose). Bruv has posted in the thread in the squads forum on behalf of The Few (even tho I'm probably the worst pilot in the squad, I'm looking forward to this big time :D)
All squads should try this, seriously, its a great way to meet other people, and try and shoot them down ;)

I think it should be a relaxed thing, not a ladder/score thing. Lean more to the quality of a historical matchup.
-
Agreed Filth - sorry if my post seems to point towards score or anything, these matchups are just a vast amount of fun
<S>

and if any of you want to work your wing tactics, i'd be happy to go 1 v 2 in whatever, however.

:aok Pink garters, what else? We would love to take on the lightnings again, ack-ack. Always a good time.
Seems like some good interest here.
All we are looking to hopefully do here really is increase the hours of quality game time we have with our friends, while hopefully meeting new ones, sharpening tactics, flying historical match ups in squadron sized engagements, for the sheer enjoyment and glory of the fighter plane. Get in touch with 'Trotter' if you and yours have interest.
