I was thinking it would be nice to add observation and ground attack to make the WW1 arena more active .
Spawn supply dumps resupplied by truck columns. Observation planes and possibly balloons would be used to spot supply dumps and trucks on the road. This would show the locations on the map since they would not spawn in the same places each time.
When enough supply dumps are destroyed the battle is won by the high supply country and the map is reset with new supply dumps.
There would be no base capture with the current map. Just observation, attack, and defense.
Observation aircraft could be AI or player. AI observation aircraft would provide constant activity. Conditions could be set so one player aircraft can't win a battle but would always have something to do beyond aerobatics while waiting for another player.

I had forgotten that is about all aircraft and balloons were used for. Fighters, observation planes, two seat attack, observation balloons, and one bomber for each side of the conflict. Could really setup the WW1 arena as all AI at that point allowing the few who play in there to shoot at them and the occasional human player who shows up.

Anything interesting enough to keep players in there while they wait for others players is :aok

it is a nice idea FLS,
Anything to encourage some players to stay in there for a bit.
