I get your point, but night time kills the action for most of an hour.


agreed

At the time it was implemented it cool,... but if you're going to A&B with other more modern graphics it's not going to fair well.

Apparently I'm in the minority, but I liked Mindanao.

Was one of the better maps.. usually forced a large scale multifaceted fight in the middle of the map between all 3 countries.  Apparently that's not what we are aiming for here.

Can someone send links or have any map layouts of our current ones?
For the life of me, I cant remember the names/layout of each.

Here are some of them  https://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,409555.0.html

You can find them all here C:\Hitech Creations\Aces High III\ah3terr\iconcache but they are pretty small

And here are more in another post. https://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,406875.0.html

Can we do the current map grinder next? Maps with giant holes in the middle are a killer. I would love to fly across the map to the heavily populated, double-sector dar bar at the Knight/Bishop front but that was just one last bridge too far. Even though it was raging all night, unfortunately It would have required me to fly across 49,000 miles of ocean. Could maps like this one have more interconnected GV spawns?

Yes to more maps that bring the three countries together and no that’s not two countries only.

 :old: New idea… How about some neutral bases sprinkled throughout each map that have GV spawns from all three countries? They could be from the bases that cannot be taken so to always ensure access to all.

If not neutral they could be country specific but still be always accessible by all countries always.

Back in 2022 after a loooooong break from 2010. Old name Ratpack, same for the BBS.

Squad I did the most tours with were the Excaliburs then The 172nd Rabid Dogs. Still trying to talk Illigaf, Coola, Oldman22, and Joecrow into coming back instead of being boring old farts!

If you’re looking for a project, perhaps you could update the North America map. I think it’s really great, but it has some crowding. Maybe shed five or six bases from each team?
