Aces High General Discussion / Re: Another Pilot Flew West Last Night

Very sad to read this.

Hombre was always a guy you could count on and I flew many a scenario with him and some FSO against him. He was a good stick and a great guy

Such a loss for us as a community   R.I.P. my friend

Seems we have lost quite a few guys. I have been flying since Feb 1996 back to the AW days and many have passed on over the years.

Friday Squad Operations / Re: Mountbatten Melee 42 - Frame 3 logs are up

« Last post by Devil 505 on Yesterday at 07:49:52 PM »

lets see..

reduced fleet number to 1
5-15 minute float time to shore
axis air spawn moved closer to fight
axis ignoring defense of airfield entirely
oops, technical difficulties leading to a 30 second head start for axis
oops, the cv didn't spawn correctly

seemed like a massive overcorrection to compensate for axis 'bad time' during frame 1 and 2, which probably couldve been fixed just by nixing feetdry spawns

instead of the axis bailing out early, it was the allies this time. nobody wants to fly an FSO like that one. its only fun for the winning team. if you guys want a furball just make an FSO dedicated to furballs.

just my 2 cents

It took all those changes and a squad forcing it's way to the outnumbered side just to get things fair - and then your team cut and ran.

Unsure what’s funny about even numbers this time…

“lol”

Aces High General Discussion / Re: Airjer Heart Issues

« Last post by ZE on Yesterday at 07:26:43 PM »

My niece had the same blood sugar problem that delayed her heart surgery.  After the surgery she is so very pleased with the outcome so hang in there Airjer.   Better days are ahead.

Some members of my family successfully overcome the same problems. With God's help, all will be OK well Airjer. As a heart attack, survival with stem is great to know doctors have solutions to several of those problems...

Wishlist / Re: AI Pilots

« Last post by Dadtallica on Yesterday at 07:11:36 PM »

I would think a large portion of this stuff is already built. When Hitech was working on "Combat Tour" a lot of these things were talked about being in that version of the game. I wonder how much of this stuff is already made and how much trouble it would be to finish it off?

Would imagine it would probably help. I feel the big takeaway from something like this is not what it would require to make it happen but what does it require to keep it happening day after day.
