Actually Charon I think most of us already know who we are and have done something like this on occasion in the past, usually when the Muppets, 13th, the BK's and friends hooked up in Knitland.  Won't take but a few moments to get it rolling in the MA cause the hate of the horde has been festering for so long  :D

Instead of going to a map and looking for an even fight we can mass together and head for the horde and make the fight even. Much more fun than upping from a CAP'd base.

Sounds good to me stang.  I know the reputations of the squads mentioned, but there are a lot of lone wolf or small squad guys like me out there who have the same spirit. I spent a lot of time a few months ago fighting the BKs in a running brawl trying to get a kill on Laz in his Fm2 just for laughs, or seeing if I could get by its resident Killbot (levi) to get a shot that I could make, but Levi kept popping me, and popping me and popping me. Did get a weak one on drex though :)

This is the most excited I've been with AH in a LONG time...

First the word of the movement must be passed on past the BBS.
Then we must organize our squads. Im not talking about 1 night a week. I am talking about a daily butt whipping. This is not to change the game from strat to furball or furball to strat it is to turn it into a game into a place where flying with the horde is no longer safe and easy.

They shall know that flying in the horde now makes you a target!!!!!

Seriously, we that have been here for awhile are to blame for the current situation of milkrunning hordes. We let it get out of control. I have been here since 2001 and have seen the decline in good fights. Those days the strat guys attacked defended bases and milkrunners were ridiculed. We have beatched and moaned on the BBS but now it is time for action. Lets take back our virtual skies and mold the new guys to what they should be rather than let them change the game we once loved.

I was just thinking that initially, it might be a good idea to start with a "get to know you/have some numbers" squad night as the movement begins to grow. I personally wouldn't want any repeat of the overwhelming RJO, unless it was spread out through all the countries evenly. JMO, Keep rolling brother Jam.

i think for everyone who likes dogfighting and killing alot of air to air in a sortie, the anti-horde CAP has surely been done.

But, NEVER on a scale like this could be...

Mwwaaahahah...

im in.

We will only use force when forced too. We will not constantly horde around.

A name is in order for the anti-horde horde... Any suggestions?

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't this kind of what was intended by HT in the first place?

Don't get me wrong, it sounds like fun, as someone who enjoys doing bombing runs every now and then I would love to actually run into some real danger to add to the realism. This would force them to get together fighter cover and bring together a real nice little furball, bombers and all.

I wouldn't think of it as anti-hording since you are really giving most of them exactly what they want.

In conclussion: Good idea :aok
