Its up to the players to follow the suggested orders, get organised and capture/defend bases only if they choose to hitting st rat targets and grabbing territory will advance your forces enabling new aircraft at captured bases. The tools are there if one wants to take advantage of them. If folks want to dog fight its their choice.. Enjoy :aok

THE CURRENT SITUATION
WEATHER CONDITIONS OVERCAST... AS THEY WERE DURING OPERATION BAYTOWN..
The 99th Fighter Squadron, XII Air Support Command, transfers from Licata to Sicily with P-40's, they along with P-38's are sent to hit landing grounds at Reggio di Calabria base A2... but fail... instead they attack targets of opportunity in the general area.

The allies attacked at Axis base A2 Reggio di Calabria ..The toe of Italy. But failed to capture it
Axis has defended successfully ...... and won today's round
To advance Allies will first need to capture and hold Knight base A2 Then continue and advance northward capturing knight bases A57,A56,A63,v60.
If a country captures a base it will be populated with their aircraft automatically
IE if the allies take base A2 as instructed the base will be automatically suplied with allied Air craft and other tools of war to help them advance.

Really hate the rolling plane set. feels like it restricts the gameplay too much.

Is there scheduled times for these events?
Negative. its an open arena at all times. you can come in and attempt to complete the axis/allied objective whenever you wish.
The arena gets most busy tho during the evenings-nights.

Just one question, we can’t retake a captured base? I don’t see any where it is mention that we can’t? Cause it seem the base was being reset in a matter of minutes.
-
Had fun in there tonight. Great fights and good group of people on both sides.
Well matched plane set, although in the right hands the 109G2 rocks! (just wish they were my hands).
I will repeat!
cheers,
RTR

The only thing that resets in a matter of minutes are the hangers they will reset in 15-20 minutes Yes bases can be captured, and retaken for sure. That's the idea, side with most bases at the end of the set up wins :aok The idea is for the allies to invade Italy and Axis to defend it..if they can.. :D
Player-"Dude"... Is this your question??? If so please check this out >
it's the explanation 0f how to capture bases> http://www.hitechcreations.com/Help-Section/Flight-Sim-Information/aces-high-help-gameplay.html#up
The short version> Again the only thing that resets in a matter of minutes are the hangers they will reset in 15-20 minutes the town needs to be taken down before the base can be captured not just the hangers ext.

Thanks RTR it was good to see you in there! Was a blast, thanks to you and all the guys and squads, that are joining in on this one. Jolly Rogers gave a heck of a CV defence over the coast .

White flagged a town this afternoon, but the guns came up within 3 mins. How are you going to achieve any strategic :old: :old: objectives if you can't get troops out before guns come up? :old:
-
Guns are set at only 20 min during off hours and town down for 45 min.. The arena was re- set today perhaps something changed ill take a peek..
Thanks for the heads up.. :aok
-
I timed them at 3 mins, may have been another reset for that last update~
-
A-56 town ack reups after 2-3 min. A-63 town ack stays down fo at least 10.
-
A56 has a bug all others work fine something in the terrain Think that town need to go to sleep.
