Calling ALL Pilots! Dec. 7th Special Event...
« on: November 29, 2009, 11:17:04 AM »
Dear AH community,

On Monday, Dec. 7th at 9 PM EST, there will be a grand battle taking place. There will be a Pearl Harbor special event. We ran an event that was similar to this last year, but there were some serious setbacks and flaws to it. Therefore, I have redesigned the event almost completely. The Brewster Buffalo has been added to the plane set, as well as cruisers with increased hardness to simulate battleships, and the change that will be the easiest to see: NO MORE SITTING ON THE RUNWAY!!! I realized that it just wasn't going to work the way I had wanted it too, so now there is an alt cap until engagement for the americans

However, this event represents more than a reenactment. This will be a tribute to those who fought and died on that day. A moment of silence will be observed before the frame starts.

I am asking that if you are available on this night, that you please attend. 68Raptor, 68Falcon, and myself have worked hard to get this event up and running in not a lot of time.

I hope to see all of you there. Spread the word to your friends in game!
 :cheers:
