Brady, send message to Ronni that she makes it ready before friday. I know there is hundred of Finnish pilots waiting for the map coming!

But is there anybody fighting with Russian planes...?:D ;)

I've been looking forward to this map like everyone else.  
! for a fine mapmaking effort, kanttori.  But gee, I hope there aren't really a hundred waiting to fly Finnish/Axis.  Big numbers are fine ... but counterproductive in the CT when they all want to fly one side and one side only.

I understand national pride and all that ... more power to you.  But if the numbers are too lopsided, you might find yourselves flying alone.  Not much fun in that, I'll wager.

I'll happily be there in one of Stalin's crates ... until it becomes too much of a gangbang.

Yep Dennis, you are right. If the need be I'll fly VVS side too...although being a finn I'd really enjoy this setup flying for FAF and babble finnish with the rest of the finns. :) Although I'm pretty sure that if we can get the numbers up for one side the other side will follow because of the simple fact that there are folks in the numbers in the CT then...that's pretty rare the times I log online. :(

Dennis, I was joking!

We Finns had flown half year on FinRus map in H2H-arena, when I tested it. Me and my Finnish friends like to fly La5 and Yak very much and of course 109G2 and G6, too. We don't quarrel about who is Finn and who is Russe!

We have discussed that we of course balance the sides when it's necessary on CT.

But some day I want Sabre or Brady make one evening CT-scenario where Finns are Finns and "the rest of the world" are Russians! ;)

Excellent.  Saw the smileys; missed the nuance of the joke, I guess.  I like your attitude about the numbers thing.  Looking forward to the map.  !

How long will this FIN-RUS TOD last? 2-3 weeks? As you might know IŽll be using my "free 2 weeks" in this, BUT the coming weekend features FREE WBIII and FREE WWIIOL. And I canŽt play 3 games at once! :D

CUA up there, julle

It will run for one week, with a posable repeat in Jan/Feb sometime.

Hello Brady!

I lost your e-mail address, can you re-send it to me! I will post to you a new printable map from Finland vs Russia area with all Fields and Targets. Maybe it helps you planning your CT Tour!

How about we plan on doing that during the 31 Jan run of this map?  Say, that first Saturday?
