Thank you gentlemen, I enjoy working in the Terrain Editor, strange as that may be. It is challenging and gratifying.  :salute

Got to play on it for a few last night before the #s picked up. I think it will be a pretty good map. A few choke points and places where I think the fights could get really big. Hoping this map pops up on a Friday sometime to see it really shine.

Thx JimmyD! Oh and you too Hitech for getting it rolling!

Lusche, I saw what you meant about open areas around the Strats, last night. Bombers went off map almost immediately. I will try to make that more of a consideration in the future.  :salute

  This map brought over 140 players to MA on a Tuesday night. That's the equivalent to a Friday at primetime on average over the last 9 weeks.

these players who do this do not EVER make a significant contribution to the war effort and thus should be considered as milk runners even if it is the straps. Although restrictions can be put into place I feel like having those flak bases able to launch c47s is an excellent counter for this map.

Overall, I dislike this feature as it takes me about 20 minutes to resup a newly attacked strat. The time investment versus resupply time makes strat runs unprofitable hence why I will not participate in strat runs at certain times. Kenai77 explained the reason why he designed it like this and although the above statement is where my opinion lies I stand with Kenai77 on the subject and accept it as how it is <S>
