Operation Debrief:

Tropical Thunder Squadron's Dishonourable Raid on the Rooks

0600 EDT / 1000 UTC ZULU

In an unprecedented and controversial early morning operation, the Tropical Thunder squadron, alongside select pilots from the Knights, executed a raid on Rookland knowing they had no opposition. The following is an official debrief report of the events that transpired on this fateful mission.

Composition of the Horde: The operation was led by a coalition of eleven pilots, predominantly from the Tropical Thunder squadron.

The following pilots participated:

LOOPY
OldWolf
baronred
NikonGuy (Tropical Thunder Sqn)
Tortoise (Tropical Thunder Sqn)
Vertis (Tropical Thunder Sqn)
Chute (Tropical Thunder Sqn)
Jaggy (Tropical Thunder Sqn)
Mr Cart (Tropical Thunder Sqn)
MrJousts (Tropical Thunder Sqn)
TechWrek (Tropical Thunder Sqn)


Raid Overview

At 0600 EDT, the Tropical Thunder squadron, in coordination with their Knight allies, launched an extensive and unopposed raid on the territories held by the Rooks. The operation took advantage of a sparsely defended landscape, with only one active Rook player present and two inactive players from the Bishops.

The operation was meticulously planned to maximize territorial gain while the Aces High community was largely inactive. Over the course of the operation, the coalition captured a total of 19 undefended bases.


Tactical Execution

The raid began with precision strikes on Port 31, while I (99cap) tried to slow down the horde, there were just too many of them. The Tropical Thunder squadron, renowned for their early morning hording of the map, swiftly overran the undefended bases. Their actions were marked by a strategic efficiency that has drawn widespread condemnation for its timing and apparent disregard for the spirit of fair play.

Key Points of Contention:

Lack of Active Opposition: The raid occurred when the majority of the Aces High community, including the Rooks and Bishops, were offline. This strategic timing has been viewed by many as exploitative.

Territorial Gains: The capture of 19 bases, while a tactical success, has raised ethical questions regarding the integrity of the operation.

Community Response : The raid has ignited a firestorm within the Aces High community. Many players have expressed their outrage at what they perceive to be a dishonorable action, undermining the competitive integrity of the game.

Statements from Key Figures:

“This kind of behaviour tarnishes the spirit of Aces High. Winning without competition is hollow.” – 99capera.
“While the operation was within the rules, it goes against the camaraderie we value.” – Veteran Rook pilot.

Conclusion

The Tropical Thunder squadron's early morning raid, and continuous hording while refusing to balance teams, has left an indelible mark on their reputation. The operation, characterized by taking advantage of low numbers in the MA, only serves as a stark reminder of the fine line between tactical brilliance and unethical game-play.

I mean, there's only so much people can do when the #s are low. These kinds of things are going to happen when you are able to get friends together and do attacks during low #s.

[Shane]

But they failed to get the win, so there's that, right? gj!

I took 3 Bish bases back before turning attention to Rooks to get them and YOU off our strats. Before YOU logged in, with a CV finally in place, I started on Port 31, Loopy and Chute joined me to help.

I killed your bailed Storch pilot waiting at the map room and took the port.   

You then proceeded to take a tank to Knight AA factory instead of defending the Vbase. Then we found you after considerable time from a Storch after you attempted to retreat. We all know by now you will devote all your effort toward keeping Knights strats down to benefit either Rooks or Bishops, YOU do not care.

Stop playing some type of victim, you do gamey  💩 every day. It’s a game, go outside and get some Vitamin D for God’s sake.

Things actually continue to happen in Aces High when you’re not present, believe it.

I do not know what happened after I logged but BaronRed and myself are NOT the same player FYI. I don’t know if he was there as you say, however he was NOT while I was logged in, with a small roster a quick glance in the mornings tell us a considerable amount of info.

Sounds like a real snoozer. Glad I missed it.

Your concern for my Vitamin D levels is touching. I’ll be sure to step outside and ponder the deep complexities of your in-game strategies while basking in the sunlight. As for the game, I’m glad to hear it continues without my omnipresent influence. Who knew the digital world didn’t revolve around me?   

Keep fighting the good fight RotBaron...you're a champion of virtual warfare. Your legacy is secure in your own mind. 

Keep up  the 'good' fight.

It was written in a comical spin, trying to be a fun AAR, but I think everyone did see you "whining" about how others played that day.

Thank you Fugitive

Oh my bad.. your multiple mentions of hoarding and not evening teams kind of sounded like a whine to me.  Not to mention a wall of text to attempt to hide the whine.  Not to mention you naming players individually.

I'm sure your feeble attempts to defend in a wirb likely hiding in a tree didn't help much did it?
