Join us for a special night in AvA as we unveil this new terrain and debut the new KI43.
This terrain contains features never before seen in Aces High, at least as long as I've been here. You will just have to see it.
Set Up:

Axis:

G4M
We will start at 9pm est and will announce some challenging suggested missions, complete with in game, country specific mission briefings. (you have to be there to see this)
More surprises await.
We will post more screenshots later, but for now you will have to come in and see for yourselves.
This terrain has been a result of collaborative effort between me, easyscor, USRanger, and made possible with AC3D training by MrMidi and the SEA terrain team.

We had a pretty good time. Here's what you missed.
Mission briefings.

For those who don't get over to the AvA forum.
The secret that people didn't get to learn last night is that the rear base that links to the remote airstrip is custom and has no fighter or bomber hangers.
One of the parked Tabby's is set as bomber hanger and one of the parked Oscar's is a fighter hanger. Finding the airstrip and strafing down the planes shuts the airstrip down.
It also shuts the base down which is why it is a rear base that wouldn't get much use other than to access the airstrip.
Right now the downtime for the planes turned hangers is 15 minutes.
The airstrip isn't easy to find and you gotta fly pretty low to see the parked aircraft.

When you report to O-club, this is the allied greeting. Axis has one too. The last paragraph is an actual excerpt from something Claire Lee Chennault wrote.
