Title: Wanted: large squad for an experiment
Post by: captain1ma on March 06, 2009, 07:22:59 AM
I'm looking for a large squad, around 10-15 players, for an experiment. i would like to try something in the midwar, because of the low numbers, with another squad. you will be going up against JG54 in case you hadn't figured that out.

There will be a distinct set of rules of engagement. basically it will be a capture the flag scenario, one squad against another. planes and GV's are going to be used.

if interested leave me a post on here and I'll PM you or PM me direct. thanks

Maybe you should think about getting time in one of the SEAs or the DA. In MW if your just wanting a 1 on 1 fight that is easy to do. If your wanting to setup squad against squad I think you'll be running into a lot of problems. A large DB is going to attract folks looking for fight.

About the SEA's <in the voice of Lumbergh> "Um......yeah...."   

What about this gem from AZbaer of JG54:

Why don't squads do what we do, when numbers are low we split the squad and use the true aces of the squad to  school the rest.

i thought about that shuffler but im hoping i can nicely ask everyone to stay clear and let us battle it out. the idea is to capture the other guys base. we need a map with capturable bases thats why i thought of the MW. I'm hoping that everyone will be kind enough to leave us alone so that we can test out this experiment. i can send you the details if you'd like to see them. This will end up being a squad duelling ladder that isnt just planes

well he's right, we balance the sides and the better pilots help the lesser pilots in 1V1 dogfights. on squad they tell us everything we do wrong, right up to the point where they shoot us down!

in this particular scenario it wouldnt work because the idea is to pit squad against squad. we cant mix 2 competing squads, but a squad can get mercs to fill in the numbers, or the larger squad can drop a few guys. the numbers must be exactly even for this to work!

Don't think there are enough active Raiders anymore.  With my departure from the squadron, think that leaves 3-4 active members.

It'd be easier in the SEA. Contact one of the CM's.

We could probably round up some people pretty easy to fly against you.

well maybe we could create a squad just for the event?? again, mercs are acceptable in order to balance the numbers. maybe there are people out there, that would like to participate that dont have or arent part of a squad. good opportunity to create one. again you will be on opposite sides so you'll have range vox available. this will work for people that arent part of a squad!

Sounds like a good idea to me.  I would also recommend you try and set this up in one of the SE arenas.  If it takes place in the MW, you will get those that will do whatever it is they can to grief and ruin the event.
