1.  NOE =  NAPE OF THE EARTH 499ft or less is noe. this means if your 499ft or less enemy cannot see you on radar.

2.  19,000 lbs to destroy HQ

3. You CAN NOT rebuild HQ unless its completely destoryed. ( you can goon and repair buildings near hq but you cannot rebuild hq)
 ps. this is not a bug.  matter of fact Dale's exact words were " IF you could rebuild hq not destroyed THAT WOULD BE A BUG"


4. Troops should be 800 ft to be safe. C47 is plane with troops lvt2 and m3 are ground vehicles which carry troops.


 5. PLEASE ASK before you send invite  to join someones plane.


 6. Fly what ever plane you want

 7. Want to learn how to kill fighters go to DA with shane he will teach you.

 8. want to learn to bomb then ask me and I will teach you in 5 mins how to bomb.


 9. join a squad asap even if just to look at squads. They can teach you the ropes and may become some of your best friends.


 10. you can use external view on bombers  only.

 11. SETUP mic in sound recorder you will want mic  to talk to your countryman

  12. if your over from WARBIRDS couple of good warbird squads are here  VIFF's RED Isreali 101 is here, so is DEADHE's  squad  367th and some others.


   13. want plane that can fight fighters bomb towns and kill Ground attackers try the A20 easy to fly and can do alot of damage.  If fighter is your bag then spit  or 109g10 if you have sim time 109g10 is close to other sims 109.  


last thing this game can be addicting or give you stress it all depends on who and what you know. Don't be afraid to ask questions some guys will be rude and tell you to go read manual. But there are many who will take time to answer questions. HAVE FUN ANY WAY YOU CAN./ Life is to short to get mad about a game.



 P.S BEWARE of the a20 in the skies it may be mine:)

how's 99% structural damage and 100% functional damage not 100% effective damage, i.e. "destroyed"?

Just a slight note on points 1 and 4 ...

1. 499 ft AGL (Above Ground Level). If you are flying NOE along a mountain crest at 12,000 ft, you will not show on radar.

4. Troops are dropped at a minimum of 800 AGL (Above Ground Level). Check base alt and then add 800 to it. That would be your minimum drop alt.

Nice job rod !!!

i beg to diff on the HQ rebuild ( as for I was there when it got smacked 2 times in rookland friday)

the 1st time just the main HQ building was down .. the dar came right back up after the c 47 supply chain  ran


the second time  is was fairly well flattened ... supply chain ran and ran and ran .... it acted like the c -47's didnt work at all .


Another thing with the buff formations and noe's you must gain alt of at least 200 feet for the formation to line up , and if you gear down to bounce over a hill ... you lose the drones .

when fighting something like the hurr and flying something like a 109F-4 try to use    
   your extra speed and climb by using the vertical this is the only way to fight great turners in powerful aircraft in 1V1 knife fights

Rod i'd like to add that the Radar Factory near HQ has to be above a certain percentage before HQ will start to rebuild itself also....I found this out many many times on NdIsles....supplied HQ 10 times and then noticed radar factory was 49%....i resupplied it a few times and voala HQ sprang back up pretty quickly....

Differ all you want but Skuzzy has said it many times in the past that if you can only fly in supplies to the HQ if it's 100% destroyed.  To do so otherwise would mean there is a bug that allows you to resupply HQ if it's not 100% destroyed.

Common mistake that makes people think the supps are working on HQ is when a supply train sneaks in below them
