Title: Combat Challenge III - Black Friday
Post by: Nefarious on November 27, 2013, 07:28:24 PM
That’s right! It’s back. It’s been over 3 years since Daddog ran the first two Combat Challenges back in 2010 and featured changes to the typical FSO settings like reduced visual settings and radar. This event will be modeled in the style of the first two combat challenges, but with some changes. This event will feature standard FSO settings in frame 1 for people who might not be familiar with FSO and then in frame 2 will go to limited Icons at 1K. Radar will be on in Tower only.

This will be an FSO squad and Walk-on friendly event. All are welcome and it is not mandatory for FSO Squads. This event will take place at regular FSO time at 11PM EST and will run the standard FSO length of 2 hours. It will be unlimited lives in the span of the two hours. All four aircraft will be enabled at T+60.

The objective will be for the two sides to engage in air combat and shoot down enemy aircraft.

Fly what side you want, but I may ask some guys to switch if it becomes to much of an issue, but most importantly have fun!
