It's 15$ us.  Usually between 40-60 people around that time. If money is an issue, I am glad to pay for your first 2 months. Pm me if that can get you in....we want you. We need you...

Usually climbs to about 100 by 8pm EST

More than enough for a great time!

Depends on the day of the week, also.  Friday nights tend to be more active - close to 150 in the MA is not unusual.

Price as mentioned $14.95 a month and remember the 6-month plan; attendance, one more than before you re-joined the fun.
Far too many, if not most, people on this Board post just to say something opposed to posting when they have something to say.

Let's round up both: $18 USD would be £13 GBP.

As for numbers, I couldn't say.  It'll depend on the day of the week, that is for sure, with Friday and Saturday likely being where numbers are highest.

Thanks but no the money if fine at that price. I will get back in with attendance over 100. I guess the maps could be smaller now compared to when it used to be 800.  Excellent flight model and attention to realism I have seen anywhere x

At 7pm? Keep dreaming ;)
And while there are still complaints about 'big maps', the truly big maps for 600+ players were pulled from rotation about 5 years ago.

Sadly the attendance will only get worse over the next year. It's kinda like a locked door being shut from the outside. And this door is almost shut. Hi-tech threw the key in the trash years ago. I will continue to enjoy whats left until there is nobody left.

been hearing for years that ah is about to die, only a few months left.  and yet we still playing.

if you enjoy the game, then enjoy the game.  no need to be so negative.

I wonder how many people would be playing, if everyone who isn't playing because there aren't enough people playing, was playing.    :D

I'm sorry.  I know that was just humor, but that argument, which is often trotted out, drives me crazy.

It is essentially like saying:

"If everyone would just go back to driving horse buggies, there there would be a better market for buggy whips.  :D"

It's both true and pointless. Those who had been horse buggy customers have either died of old age or moved on to buying automobiles.
What's left now is a handful of Amish.  Those remaining Amish are still loyal and appreciate the quality of the remaining world-class 
buggy whip manufacturer, but the market trajectory is not going to change by force of wishful thinking.  Especially if the criteria is that no material changes to the current game can be considered.  If you send the same parameters to a function, you get the same return value.

On the positive side, I suspect the rate of population decline is shallowing. Not because the market is changing, but because most who are likely to have left, already have.  Those who are remaining probably represents a fairly durable population.  They have pretty much decided to stay until they take a dirt nap, or HT unplugs the server.  But it still seems to be an evaporation rate of about 20 players a year, at least since 2018.  But I defer to Lusche.

If WB or WWIIOnline would finally give up the ghost, AH might get one last handful of refugees.  But I wouldn't expect more than a 20 player bump.

Everything is impermeant.  Enjoy it while it lasts.

$0.02.
