What is the AvA schedule for June 2010?

[Dawger]

Anyone know?

[captain1ma]

got any suggestions? gyrene is putting together a setup for June 3. Fork has something planned for the following week. but fud and OM don't have anything as of yet. we have plenty of shifty's setups to use, but if you have a suggestion, we can throw it in the mix. at the very least we can Keep it in the repository for later use.

I would suggest that since next week is ETO Late War it be followed by a setup simulating the earliest part of the China-Burma theater with a Flying Tigers Defense of Rangoon setup followed by Salamua-Lae campaign culminating in Operation Postern in New Guinea. You could finish the month with the campaign to capture Rome on the west coast of Italy.

Four major theaters, four time periods. One month.

Just my quick thoughts. The specific setups probably already exist but I have thoughts on that as well. For example, troop carriers in Operation Postern should be LVT's. It would be interesting to design an amphibious assault and capture.

Amphibious assault off carriers sounds fun.

Funny you mentioned that

Flying Tigers setup would be tough since we're missing some key Japanese aircraft...unless we just want to furball over a base...and we have been running PTO setups more frequently than anything else...Rangoon, Midway (twice), Changing of the Guard, Birth of a Legend. I'm looking into a possible Med setup to run starting June 3rd, that would encompass ops from land, sea and air circa 1942-43...but the right terrain is not easy to find.

Which terrain are you planning to run it on? Because the distances on the rangon09 terrain are not suitable for the AvA imo.

...followed by Salamua-Lae campaign culminating in Operation Postern in New Guinea...

Which terrain are you planning to run it on? Because the Coral Sea terrain is not suitable for the AvA imo.

Edit:
Actually, Coral Sea is much better now that Dux added some bases. There's still not enough to enable capture, so there will still be folks who won't like it.

Yes, Italy will work, but Operation Postern goes right back to the lack of a good AvA terrain for that area.

I will pwN ur lvTz with my pTz-109z it will bE ePic. 

[TheBug]

There used to be a good terrain for a North Africa setup; at least there was back when I was part of the CT Staff (now AvA). Plus there are MANY aircraft that are good for this type of a setup. Italy is a little tougher to do simply because of the map but its not a complete waste since there was just a terrain that ran in FSO for "Breaking Gustav".

All the terrains looked great before the terrain update, they just need to be updated to what they used to look like.

Do you want us to run nothing but North Africa and Italy setups until we know for sure whether or not HTC will allow new maps that are not made by members of the "map team"?

The only Africa terrain that works right now is Tunisia and it's barely workable for ground battles...it's much more conducive to dogfighting and strategic bombing.
