Time: 1950's Korea

as the Korean conflict continues, the Soviet
Union has decided to intercede in the conflict by
Striking UN targets with IL-28s(AR234) and Tu-4s(B29)
in response to USAF bomber Strikes Against North Korea.

Bases A75 and A2 contain B29's. these bases are strategically
placed to be within range of Strats. the Side to get any
strat down to 75% gets 1 plane at 1 base of their choosing.
**Also side with the most points wins!

Vbase 107, which will be neutral will contain a LA7 for Knits,
and P51D for the Bish.it lies between v110 and v31. T34's,
and firefly's will be active. whoever captures the base, gets
their plane. if the other side captures it back, they get their
respective plane.

***points will be issued for Strats. 1 point per 1 percent.
***winner will be side with most strat points.
***this includes all strats. if you knock the ammo factory down
***to 30% and the radar factory down to 70% you will acquire
***100 points towards the win.

had fun last night gunfighting B29s with Hamhawk after the map change. It was a slooooooow turn fight, much more reminiscent of old sailing ships duking it out on the high seas.

 :salute ham, it was fun!

 I agree completely, Cap. Last time I was in there for jet week I had a ton of fun.
There were a bunch of 262s furballin' OTD. As I'm awful in it and don't want
to lose 200 perks in the Late War Arena, I usually just boom and zoom with it.
Was tremendous fun to get it low and slow and get my arse handed to me!
Those dang Muppets!  :x

Best regards, and good huntin'!

Best regards, Odd

 that's one of the most fun things. get these cartoon planes stupidly slow, into situations that the real guys in real life would never dream of doing.....and try to make the other guy make the first mistake.
 i didn't get home in time to log in tonight......maybe thursday night, as i have a meeting after work tomorrow night.....
