This open to all players in Aces High. 10 PM EST/ 9 PM CST in Special Events Arena 1 Friday night Oct 23.
The first event will be a race using C-47's to capture bases on the MMESA map. Players will all start from A1 and fly to all enemy bases to capture them. No sequence of bases is setup, just choose one and be the first to get there. All town building will be down and all the ack will be down.
The clincher is that after all the players have departed A1, then the CM's will close all airfields. That means players will have to fly to the nearest captured airfield to land and re-arm with troops to fly to another base. Players can drop troops by air or land them next to the towns and maprooms on V bases.
The player with the most captures WITHOUT breaking their goon will be the winner. Friendly collisions will be turned OFF.
Do you think you have what it takes to win?
The second event will be players dividing into two teams for relay racing in jeeps. Both teams will line up at one end of a runway. The first players of each team out in front of the single file lines will race to the end of the runway and do a 180 and race back to their teammates. The second teammate will race as soon as the first one drives right through or by the second player. And so and so until one team has finished first.
This will be a best of 5 heats for the winning team.
If time is still there then other events will happen on the fly.
Hope to see many new people there and all the old hands in jeep racing. :salute

Just so all who read this there are only 60 bases on the map with one being friendly at the beginning. That means 59 bases are up for grabs.

I'm guessing all towns will be immediately and permanently down for the event...?

Yes. This is to allow capture easy.

don't listen to eskimojoe he's not a real eskimo and he is a squeeker to the max, he will blow your headset, that is how he got kicked out of the 357th :x

Being a squeaker doesn't mean anything negative. Players that exhibit manners and attitudes to be disruptive will be ejected from the arena by the CM.

Too bad I don't have a high-pitch or squeaky voice or else that would be true.

UPDATE: CM Marshal informed that in order to prevent the map from resetting, he'll take a couple of rear bases that had been captured and switch them to enemy bases that are uncapturable. Players will not lose their capture on those bases when this happens. Just a preventive issue.
-
New Update : After a short time when the goon race begins, CM Marshal will open up a vehicle hangar in a rear base for players to mess around in with jeeps. Players that break their goons and players entering the arena after the start of the goon race.
