Would said planes have bombs? You know, like for GVs?  OOPS. It isn't like I am a GV Bomber or anything lol We talking Tanks on the MARCH, in formations, pushing towards objectives on a map?   Not the MA, "Hide in a bush and snipe"?   An historic-ish scenario, including Armour vs Armour with CAS elements?  If the numbers would bear out...would be an awesome scenario!!!! :rock     HMMM? Can GVs be drones like planes in ww1 arena and matchplay?  Even like the mission arenas?

So its about base taking with mostly tanks but planes for support. the planes will have limited options for weapons. the idea for planes is to take out small GV's to help base capture or dogfighting. the tanks will do most of the dirty work. its get all aspects of the game involved!

I have an idea but I think it belongs more in the realm of a scenario or snapshot.
Midway.
The Japanese get 4 cv task groups plus one BB task group.
The Americans get 3 cv task groups plus a small base at Midway.
The objective is to capture Midway for Japan, defend Midway for the Americans.
Once a Cv or BB is sunk, it is out permanently, same goes for Hangers.
For the BB task group, only lvts are enabled.
All man guns will be disabled.
Auto ack set to minimum.
F4Fs, A6M, SBD, D3A, B5N, maybe B17s with no formations, and LVTs.

This should be do able in 1-1.5 hr mini war, nice suggestion .

More of these and less MA. Keep doing these and I'll probably keep my sub. MA not doing it for me.

MNM, TNT, and add these into the week. I'll stay.

Count me in if needed.

I’ve been away quite a bit lately, Spring temps don’t last very long in Phoenix… We’ve had an unusual bout of luck with gorgeous weather through April - enjoying it as much as possible. 105+ drives me indoors and back to AH & LOTRO.

Hope to make FSO next Friday too 👍 See you then! Am quite rusty though…

not a terrible idea, but some stuff would need to be changed. guns would be manable, but once down, would be useless.
i could lower ack, but not set it to minimum. people need to die. this could be something we try at world at war.

the other thing i found is that i can have airspawns for moving carriers. that works. so lots we could do with this.

this could even involve commanders for the carrier groups as well.
