You mind posting a graphical indicator of the map so some of us can see where things are going to be located?

Just took a look at the setup in the arena. Nice idea having so many neutral bases inside the contested area. I would think it will give the GVrs on both sides a sense of blitzing and racing to secure strategic points of the map. Seriously in my opinion that's a novel way to deal with current terrain and map limitations as well as low player population issues. If it was your idea, good thinking, if you're using somebody else's suggestion on the neutral bases good decision to try it. Also this will be the first time the AVA has used the limited ordnance option that became available in the past few weeks. Good call there as well this is a great setup to test that option.  :aok

Reshk,

Just hop in the arena and take a look. While you're there you could screenshot and post it. :aok



Jaeger

Since you're going to post daily objectives posting a pic of the map with the targeted areas highlighted with them might be a good idea.

Well I got nothing so far. Each time I try to take a screenshot I get a white screen when I go to export it over into Gimp, Paint, you name it it happens that way.

I guess I can try to get in there daily to grab new shots...would it be better to do late at night the day before?

Nice idea Jaeger.  :aok

Not sure why but it doesn't give me anything other than a white screen as if its in windowed mode...even though AH runs in full screen for me. Kinda freaky and it did it on the other computer that has AH on it here at home my son uses.

i just want to say that tonight was one of the most fun nights ive had in the AVA in a long time. i want to thank everyone that participated. at one point i counted 26 pilots. it was a great night if you missed it. although we've had a few problems with this setup. its been pretty good all in all. thanks to everyone that helped make it happen.  :salute


this just in from the Axis front:  due to pressure from Allied attacks the 262's and ar234's will be moved back to bases 131 and 127. thanks for your understanding.
