Honestly, I can not think of one good thing about it. Maybe if GVrs like to kill strat targets that don't shoot back it's good.

Chris, those strats are bait. The idea is to capture the airfields that might launch mudhens, encamp the strat, set the hook.

Great amount of fights. All kinds of things to shoot at. Short flights from base to base. Short rides in GVs. Quick action for those that don't have an hour to play. I dont see anything wrong with these. Its better than a large map, having to fly for an extended period to find something.

9k base to a port STUKAZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!  :aok

with that being said it is tough to do regular type missions, so now you must think more about what you want to do.

it has pluses and minuses but its better than nothing i guess...
if i had my way it would be axis vs allies in a rotating planset with a rotating map..
but that will just be saved for friday nights....

Finally got to play on it for a while last night.  Every other time it's been up the day/night crew horde rolled it before I could log on.

There were enemy planes flying.  I was able to go and fight with them.

Based on that alone, I give the map 2 squigglies up.

I think the problem for some stems from no horizon in any real sense until you get down on the water. The large monotonous tan colored angled mountain sides that slant away from you in one direction while curving away in another messes with your equilibrium. Otherwise it's a giant honey pot to sucker players into quickly going somewhere to try and pick cons or roll a GV into the target faster than others have the attention to respond. It's aptly named as a "Buzz Saw" for the action it generates.

Last night every fight I was at the OP was there stealing my kills. He didn't have that bad of a time..... :O

 Looks like  a hurricane. Do not like it at all. With all the swirls, I almost get a seizure. -2

the Pizza map.
