It was vf-31 who logged out and went to the DA/MA after our squad night had ended. But it was atleast an hour after the A73 raid was squashed. We stayed and kept fighting, even scoring a major victory in the air against 15-20 axis before we finally left.

on more than one occasion in the past they have done the same thing so it starts to look like spite from this side.



We did not mean to do any harm.  We are new to the AvA and are still learning all the rules.  We are a LARGE squad and we will take our squad to the DA/TA on the drop of a hat to better our squad.

Accusations of us doing this repeatably makes you look like an arse.

You are so full of it!!

It sure didn't come off that way.  Are you saying it was meant in "General"? Or was it aimed at us?


I'm getting tired of the Chest Thumper attitude that has been aimed at my squad.  If anyone has something to say about the VF-31 PM me.  

Something so innocent has been blown way the F out of proportion & we have been lambasted instead of helped.

No wonder why AvA's numbers are low.

I had no clue you guys were even on.  as you say you are new to the arena so while you guys are new the pattern is not.  furthermore at no time did I or anyone name your squad so it was clearly a generalization on my part and most likely everyone else's, aside from the fact that I thanked a poster for his clarification on the whole matter.

The AvA staff and myself have talked about this.  Was no mass log off!!  We logged because squad night was over.

So let it be done with!!

And as far as stating about posting missions on 200, until i see it from the Axis i will not do it!!  I dont see you guys doing mass JU88/JU87 raids and telling us where your at.....

eagleeyes, there are no axis bomb squads.  but I'll tell you what we will be working on just such a mission for thursday night.

you guys will know where we are upping from what our target will be and what time we will roll.  

you will have every opportunity to intercept and our team will have every opportunity to defend and we will not be in the leat bit concerned whether we hit self healing cartoon buildings or not.

lets see if we can pull it off.

last night two or maybe three allied squads put up a combined bomber and fighter escort attack at about 25,000 feet deep into axisland.

it was beautiful to see with high altitude fighters and everything.  they accomplished a little damage to a radar strat but other than that not much because they would not engage.  since the strat needed to be taken down to 0% for points to be awarded the mission was fruitless in that respect.

they axis side had no clue due to the lack of enemy darbar in the AvA by the time they showed up on dot dar there was little the axis could do.

there was a discussion on 200 between a few of the players on both sides.  the allied side contended that the mission was historic.  the axis contended that the mission was pointless within the context of a game.

reflecting a bit on this pretty mission here at work I thought I might offer up some suggestions for any future missions in the AvA.

Post the mission on 200 stating the objective with the general path of ingress and egress. for example we will bomb base xx from base xx

give all the players in the arena the opportunity to participate by starting the mission within the following ten minutes allowing interested participants to land and up for defense of target or defense of bomber force.

award points to the respective sides for either a good prosecution of the objective and for a good prosecution of the interception.

this might be difficult to tabulate and confirm for the points to be awarded but this type of incentive could be a good vehicle for further growth of the style of play evolving within the AvA.

or not
