Title: FSO - Lightnings over Luzon - Frame 1 Objectives Sent
Post by: Nefarious on January 04, 2020, 08:35:50 AM

To the LCA and 412th,

As you will read in the email, I am trying something new this frame.

At Hour 2, a limited plane set will open for both sides. Please check objectives for field details.

ALLIED: FM2, and P-40N
AXIS: A6M5B and Ki-43-II

These aircraft will be available from all active fields at T+60 and be unlimited until the cessation of hostilities. It is completely optional, it is not required to fly. This is a trial run and may or may not be done in Frames 2 and 3. They will be scored lower than the Hour 1 aircraft and are allowed to attack the objectives if needed. The idea is to keep the fight going for people who want to fight. Completely optional.

Any questions? PM me or reply here.

Sounds intriguing.  Just to be clear: assuming I survive the first hour, I will be able to land, tower out and re up in a different plane, or the same plane?

Different plane.

Only the Hour 2 planes will be enabled.

I for one, applaud this effort.  :x

How many times has one side been overrun due to unforeseen circumstances and the last hour is spent on milk runs.  IMHO, this should increase the length of the fight.   :cheers:

Thanks, I'm hoping it does too. We will tweak or even drop it if it doesn't work, but I don't think that will happen.

I like the secondary plane.  :aok Just need to make sure fields for second hour are a bit closer together.

Liked the idea, but maybe only one extra life instead of unlimited.
