Last night with the help of coronado in rooklandia, I attempted to put a mission together that would have brought a significant number of historically competative aircraft to merge at a coalt situation. The situation was bf109g2s and bf109f4s vs spit5s and spit8s at 10K alt, hopefully with 20 to 30 folks per side and far from too many intruders, intended to be nothing more than an era specific slugfest to the last man. we gave approx 15 minutes of time for joining, Coronado informed me that he was competing against several rook missions. In the end it did not go off for this reason. :(. The bish produced 15 109s for said mission. :aok Now I still think this would be a real HOOT and nice change now and again for the LW crowd. If anyone has any advice to assist in getting this going once in awhile, it would be appreciated. A few folks said I should try this in the DA, but I don't think enough folks would leave the LW just for this mission, but I believe it would be a very nice break from the monotony of the LW once in awhile.
Thanks for any help with this!

Advertise regularly. Keep at it. Don't give up after a few tries. Eventually word gets around.

If you would have gave the Rooks only two options,,,,,
1. Get in the mission
2. Take a Bath
You would have had plenty of Rooks in the Mission. :devil
:rofl

Maybe higher alt would have lured them :D J/K I'll keep tryin

How about a readily identifiable mission title that all would recognise ?

Saw that last night but didn't realize you had rooks set to meet you in spits. will join next time, oh and also do this with F4U's some time :salute
-
probably just bad timing Shreck.... I would like to see something like this in the MA and would join.
How are you going to keep some dork from messing up the works!!!
There is not enough respect in the MA to pull it off!!! evenifyougetofftheground.
<S>

If I had been logged I would have joined in for sure. I'd have jumped countries to even the numbers if need be.
These kinds of things would be just awesome to see.

I ran a stuka mission a few weeks ago. Any time I run a mission I usually use early war aircraft with some kind of theme to the mission to add some historical flavor to it, so this time it was Stukas with 109G-2's flying cover. What was hillarious is that half the people that joined didn't even bother to look at what planes were in the mission. Others were like, "put 110's and typhoons in and I'll join." I told them no, I wasn't going to run some uber-lw cannon armed NOE lemming mishun.
The guys that didn't really pay attention howled when the mishun spawned. They were like "wtf is this pos plane?" and they exited. I guess flying a Stuka was too much for them, they needed their crutch. Ended up having about 7 Stukas though, but at one point there were 13 signed up. Now that would have been cool, and that was the point. Kudos to those that stuck around and flew. Our goon was some other squeaker who never responded to any coms, flew right to the field and dropped his troops on the runway. lol.
Point being it takes either a lot of old timers to be on to pulll it off, or you have to herd the cats (squeakers and LW ride potatos) into the not so uber historical stuff. Then you really have to cajole them to get them to fly above 500 feet and tell them you aren't hitting a base, you're trying to recreate a historical air to air matchup. That will get a chorus of wtf's and I'm outta here's.
Do it with the vets on. Karaya's a good cat herder for the Rooks to get people into the fun kind of missions.

My thoughts are to join the fight in an out of the way grid so as to keep HORDE LEECHES from following! This may take a transition flight of 1 - 2 sectors. Also if country folks see a glommer in a different ride, hopefully "intense ridicule and bashing" will change their mind :aok Anyway I expect a few interlopers now and then especialy in the beginning, but if it turns out to be do-able and fun I believe these instances will fade away

Well this is why coordinating with someone on another country is critical, Each country having their own mission to reach the intended goal, and staying within the guidelines of said mission! VOLUNTEERING ? :D Oh I would love some historic escort stuff also, but lets get thru some of the teething 1st before we complicate it up!
-
I normally don't pay attention to mission postings because I am not really into the taking bases especially with the overwhelming numbers method. However it sounds as though this was not what you were going with here and advertised properly I would have joined if I had been on either of those teams.
To get to my point:
When you set up these missions, be honest let them know this is not an horde the base mission but a create a fight mission. Let your countrymen know that the otherside is putting together a similar mission with different plane set. The other piece of advise I must add has already been mentioned, don't give up after only a couple of these sometimes it takes quite a few attempts for the best things to become popular.
If you want to try this out on the knight side sometime let me know I would be willing to post up something like this. Just keep in mind that my in game has changed (now ace pilot (quite the conversation starter :D))

Understood that is why I was coordinating with coronado, I hope he was relaying my intentions properly! I even told him to confirm I would be there so maybe an attitude of " let's all go gangrape shreck" might have been a mottivator :rofl :rofl

You see that right there is why a majority of people won't join. A mission just to go fight against other planes, not in la7's and typhoons? You mean no base take? Waste of resources!!!
That's what you get.

The interest on the bish side was quite high, and I believe most understood my intention! hopefully :huh
-
Shreck this sounds like an awesome idea i would love to participate.
Anything i can do to help i would be more than glad to do.
You know how to get me some of the guys in my squad still have some people in different countries they can contact to help fill the other end.
Bish love missions so i don't see that as a real problem.
I would like it if you try this again tonight this could be great.
Especially if all involved stick to the rules and noone ends up gettting jumped.
:aok
-
Hopefully shreck, more likely was the bish leaders who usually post missions were involved and the lemmings just followed into the mission as they do when Joker, yourself, Loin or someone else of note on that side posts a mission.
Missions like these are the closest thing the MA can get to the true point of the game. Blowing up outhouses at far flung places on the map in huge mobs at 200 feet is not. Maybe Rox can change my mind some day though...

While I agree with what you are saying here, however if you are not honest and then they find out that was not the point you might get even less participation in the future. My point was more about being honest than it was about making non-base taking missions.

To be quite honest the Unforgiven made up easily 2/3 of the commitment :aok but I see signs of great interest.
Joker I'll accept the assist, You are one of the better cat herders in bishlandia
Besides stang, you're not invited!! I gotta have some hope :D J/K bro!
-
I'm all for it, EW and MW ride fun missions are the best fun!
-
I'd be more than willing to help get the other side put together shreck. My schedule ivery irratic though I'd need to know a few days in advance when you guys want to run it.
-
This idea is just intended to add a little zest to what is otherwise the "same ol same ol" of an average night in the LW arenas.
I do not want this to be some grand planning and herding exercise to be worked out over a few days! <--that will never work!
My vision here is simple, At any given time anyone can contact an adversary oin another country, set up missions to include plane set, altitude, time and location, then anounce over 200 something like this------------> "historic mission" rooks 109s, bish spits in 15 minutes. <-- giving all ample time to finnish what they got goin and join up.
Some simple rules would have to be adhered to:
#1- players must join mission, this is to control plane type and #s
#2-NO HO on initial merge
#3-the fight is to the death, untill one side is wiped out. If you are one of the last survivers and are being ganged by 20 cons, well too bad please do not complain.
#4- participants must ridicule "to the NTH degree" any friendly not following guidelines :aok
#5- the location must be at a place where it would take too long for uppers to get involved before the contest is decided. In other words I would like to see these matches from start to finnish over in no more than 30 minutes.
Remember it's just a slugfest tween historical adversaries of the past! :aok
#6- I would say no more than 2 plane models per country at a time, example= ki61s, a6m5 vs f4u-1 and fm2, you get the picture ;)
Last but not least, RIDICULE RIDICULE RIDICULE any interlopers INTENSIVELY :aok
-
Why not put that up in SEA Shreck and advertise profusely? Only a suggestion.
But but but Steve, was that the stuka mission that you came over to Bish to put up? The one I called a Leroy Jenkins type of mission. I think my only advice was that you put it up as a rooks mission. I'm just sure that many Rooks would love a mission like that. If that should be the case just let us bish know when you run it and to where. However, I just got the feeling that maybe just maybe you were baiting Bish.
-
Shrek, I would have to bet that if you wanted to do something like this, on a weekend night (11pm ESTish) I could get the Pigs to fly against your side if you wanted to. It sounds like a real hoot. Give me a PM and ill do what I can to help set one up from the knights side.

Shrek its a capitol idea I must say and it sounds like alot of fun . And its a good distraction from being out numbered or on a losing side or boredom . I would definitely participate if one of these shows up .

Do it every Friday or Saturday night and I can bring you 10-15 BoPs(Bish side).

These "missions" as you call them are atrocities and the leader should be hung, you arnt helping win the war and therefor are just wasting resources. A NOE 110/niki/la7/spit16 mission to an undefended backline base would of been more effective and you should strive to do so next time.
:rolleyes:

I sense your sarcasm but you know how many people here said "amen" whenthey read your post stodd. :rofl

I love these kindof missions. Its like a snapshot in the MA. I remember years ago back in AH1 on ndiles Fester put up a sdb mission to kill an enemy cv. Was great to see 8-12 SDBs at 20k dive bombing an enemy CV. That was fun for me. I didnt care it took so long to get to alt and didnt care if I waisting our countries resorces. We all had fun doing it and times like that is why I pay the money every month. I used to put missions up to bomb enemy strat with P47s or hogs and I would get quite of few new guys to join, but we had fun doing it. I would just advertise no base caputre when putting up the mission. I would do the same if I wanted to wing with 4-5 others and fly across the front lines. Good luck next time you post a mission like this.
-
How about a readily identifiable mission title that all would recognise ?
This helps greatly. Some memorable Knight mission names I can recall are..."Pappy's Happy" (guess which plane)..."Anal Drip"..."Severed Testicle" just to name a few...
Here's an idea shreck..."Operation sheep molestation" run this as a bish and it'll fill up in seconds... :noid

I will put one together tonight before FSO, I will organize it with an adversary from another country, then I will put out on 200 this--> " ARE YOU READY TO RUUUMMMMBLE". I will follow up with a text of countries involved and planes! How's that ?
-
it could work. Advertise a virgin sheep to the winner for better numbers. Yes, I know there are no virgin sheep in bishland...
-
There are none in any of the countries. HT has a tesing program before they are allowed into the arenas. He picks only the stoutest of them to actually enter the game. You didn't think just any ol' sheep could turn over a tank did ya?
-
Doing this in the LW arena NOW adays just seems silly and a waste of time.
Stangs mission 2-3 years ago would have gotten 2-3 times the numbers it did the other night. Infact I remember stuka missions, one I think Fester set up with over 30 stuks. For no other reason other than just to fly a ton of stukas with the big bellybutton bomb together.
Its a waste of time because the 'players' are not there. The numbers are, but not the players we had years back. A completely different stock has taken hold of the game and that's that. There's no changing it and no denying it. So if you want to keep playing (and not get so frustrated you end up quiting) you'll have to accept that fact and move on... Doing you're own thing.
There are a few more of the "old stock" in the second LW. Purple is it? Pink? Orange maybe? I dont know... And this type of misson might go over better in there.
I'd say try it out in the MW when the numbers are up.

Your memory must fade quickly. While not a take-off participant, I DID up to help your mission from a base north of 22.
If you recollect--I arrived shortly after your mission did. The FH's, BH's, and VH were all still up. Someone was calling out that a wirble was already on his way to town. I dropped the VH, and one of the 109's strafed the wirbel, knocking out his turret. The town was almost down. I got killed by an LA7.
If your mission was designed to:
TAKE THE BASE ?: Then it's a D. The 109's that you brought with the stukas could not contend with the full darbar of NME that upped to defend. The plane-set and numbers needed did not have the ammo/ords to accomplish it all. Some of that was due to a few folks joining, then opting out in the last minute or so which always happens in most every mission.
If your mission was designed to:
HAVE FUN ?: Then, it's an A. You chose a realistic WWII (BOB or maybe Poland/Greece) style plane-set and stuck to your guns when folks on country text complained. You had 7 stukas on take off and about 5 or 6 guys in 109's. You kept reminding folks on green text that "Real Men Fly Stukas" in missions to have fun...those who agreed joined. (I can't remember if you had a goon or not.) You went to a base with full knowledge that the NME would see you all coming--but took on the challenge anyway. When I got there--the folks in the mission seemed to be enjoying themselves despite the long odds and the growing darbar against them. I heard guys on range VOX laughing as they pinged away at the gv's with their Stuka bb-guns--having a good time.
There are a few things that you DID accomplish, and probably never realized it (and this is what comes with seeing the map as an over-all chess board and not just scattered events):
Strategic: At the time you planned/posted/executed your mission, knights were in a hard fought scrap to take 22--off to the west. They had the hangars down at 22 (only one tank at town), but since they had taken the town down piece-meal, some buildings remained up, and multiple troops head to be brought in--all the while a hangar here or there would pop and had to be taken down again--and the concequential uppers killed. It was taking far too long for the take at 22.
YOUR mission took valuable bish recources away from 22, and instead, they mainly upped to defend 23--where they still had all hangars up. This allowed the guys at 22 to finish it off and take the base thanks to your diversion of resources.
Now: your mission is over and those guys are now at...
Our cv...steaming down to 23, and all the folks who just took 22 switched over to hit 23 off the cv. Our full darbar of uppers off the carrier vs their full darbar off the base. Our guys quickly drop the hangars, but by then the VH had popped momentarily, and multiple gv's have upped and are on their way to town. There is even a T-34 in town and a T-34 on the beach looking for advancing LVTs. It takes a few trips, but our guys kill the gv's and then LVT the town...base captured.
The fact that YOUR mission had already destroyed most of the town was a contributing factor in knights taking the base...as the hangars were due to pop again shortly....so, in a way, you did help take 23 with your mission--it just took a follow-up organized by oDALLASo and some determined knights to finish the job.
BTW: if you believe that all I do is NOE missions to distant bases, please keep believeing that. That means my propaganda department is doing a great job.

Hmm! The old guard seems very tired and resigned to failure! Too bad really, in reality there is probably not much difference tween then and now, many more folks playin now with the same old learning curve. The quality of play is probably exactly the same as when you were at this stage of knowledge about sims, just many many more folks now at the stage where you were 10 yrs ago I imagine!! :aok
I shall stay OPTIMISTIC about this cause it sounds like fun and a nice change! <S>
-
Well, the 1st mission finally happened! good time was had by all who fought. The Bish produced 28 souls for the fight, rooks only 10. Most of the Unforgiven backed out to make the odds fair <S> ty for that, and the Jokers also voluntarily pulled out for fairness <S> ty. The ROOKS won the match, although the rooks had many intruders and piktwits who arrived in uber rides, I was very suprised by the names of the intruders and the squads they were from :rofl :rofl. In the future we will expose those who just can't allow a fair fight to happen, here on the bbs. Anyway a big <S> to Limbo0 for being my counter part in rooklandia and helping make it happen, TY :salute I will keep at it as long as there is interest!

Sounded like it ended up being a bait mission to me....
Correct me if I am wrong, I cant recall ever seeing a knit rook up a mission like this for fun unless its an uber ride, probably because the end result would harm their "precious"....

That was a hell of a lot of fun last night Shrek, keep doing it, historical matchups with good numbers are hard to find.
<S>!!
Steely
-
I heard the mission call and then heard that Rooks only had 10 folks entered. I knew right then that Rooks would be engaging with uber planes. At least by comparison. I think it shows well for Bish though.
Honestly I think this event needs moved to sea.
-
Logged on for a few hours Saturday and had a blast with those missions, even with the Mossie Hurri mishap. :lol Keep it up Shreck and all who take an interest in this.. If those kind of missions were put up every hour or even sooner that would be awsome.. :rock <S>
-
I occasionally post a themed mission, usually historical in nature. Rarely get many participants, being knit. All my missions also have a tactical purpose, usually taking pressure off another base.
meh... :noid
-
I think that even if one were to make a base capture mission and keeping it somewhat accurate in nature posting a defensive mission on the opposing side would be fun. Axis vs Allies style. One side could stay axis or allies for a week or maybe just the day. Maybe I am just saying what is already done on Squad Ops. I do suppose though, also that if one wanted really accurate fighting then maybe the Early Arenas might be the place to fly.. The furballs that were flown though were awsome..

If you get to close to bases the tardlings will up in force to intervene, So far the 4 missions I've ran were at least 1.5 sectors away from bases and still had intruders, and you'd be suprised who they were and the squads they came from :rofl :rofl
this has to be planned well and the fight over fairly quickly so the uber ride intruders don't have time to make an influence on the fight.
-
shreck, what about trying it during Titanic Tuesday..more people in that arena..prolly could get people to join it and if it goes well , then try it another day... I think I could convince my co to get the squad involved...
-
Shreck,
Maybe ask HTC to host a special events and advertise so guys would join?
MA is not the right place unfortuanately but even the DA with enough notice or as I said special events. :salute

My intention is NOT to make a real chore of it. Actually the few I've pulled off have gone very very well and were allot of fun. It will just take exposure and familiarity so when it is announced everyone in LW arena knows whats goin on and they'll either join or stay out alltogether, tis my hope anyway. These fights were over rather quickly and "so far" looks like it is a hit. This will stay in the LW arenas as a "short term break from the monotony of the LW, so far so good <S>
Those that have participated---> TY and please keep giving suggestions :rock

I've put together so many Candy Mountain Mishun's and have many still on film.
I am pretty sure I hold the Single Mission Record for Stukas (It's over 70+) and the goal is to have fun. This one was after a Mishun with 54 of them flattened two bases. We overlooked the Goons and everyone STILL HAD FUN. The 70+ mishun had two goons and the base was flattened by Stukas with no escort.
"The Truce" quite possibly the largest Mission ever assembled in AH2 history. IIRC we had about 120 Rooks and almost 80 Knights working together to reclaim our FT bases back. When I logged, I was drained from flying, coordinating via PM with WMLute and RacrX and with Rooks. I logged on to see Lazer pissed off, instead of griping, I started a "Truce" to act on it. It worked, unlike the "Common NOE toolshedders that plague the Arenas these days who "think" they are "the Elite planner."
I already miss Raptor and Corky and I pray they return.
Where do I begin? Meeting off of the Uterus (in the South) map and dueling 6 B24's per side? Organizing a fighter sweep on Baltic map, going from 41 to 45 in B17's otd (IIRC, we had 20 single bombers with a gunner each)? Many Val mishuns. Even one that we ran from a CV in rookland near A17 (SE island on Uterus) and flew all the way to A1/A19 surprising the piss out of Knights and Bishops alike?
I've even duped some into "Torpedoes on the town"! Why? So all that join will GUARANTEED To laugh and have a good time. They always do. It is what "Karaya is really about." But some choose to be conflictual in the game and "try to sway others from joining my missions, solely out of spite."
Last week Rooks were whining about no Missions, I post a valid Non-NOE mission, only two joied and thus scrubbed it. Stupidity now runs rampant in the Arenas and is accepted by most. I act on things, but most in game are content with useless lip service to silence their "minions".

My intention is NOT to make a real chore of it. Actually the few I've pulled off have gone very very well and were allot of fun. It will just take exposure and familiarity so when it is announced everyone in LW arena knows whats goin on and they'll either join or stay out alltogether, tis my hope anyway. These fights were over rather quickly and "so far" looks like it is a hit. This will stay in the LW arenas as a "short term break from the monotony of the LW, so far so good <S>
Those that have participated---> TY and please keep giving suggestions :rock
Hell, I'll try it next time. :salute

Not long ago I suggested a mission system to naturally support just these kind of things (wishlist forum):

Please bump it if you like it.

Once again these missions have NOTHING to do with base capture or anything going on on the map at the time. Just 2 countries upping as many peeps as possible, " hopefully fairly even " with historically accurate adversaries, and merging at a predetermined altitude for a quick yet violent furball just for fun. It has been quite a HOOT! The 202 and 109E VS spit1 and p40b was a real blast. My fav so far! :rock :rock
