ATAG's 1st Bomber Night this Weekend
 

Hi fellas,

It's finally time to get a Bomber Night going. The intent of these missions are to have a teamwork / strategic based atmosphere where the team that works the most effectively together and comes up with a good strategy will win. With that said, this will be open to the public, but it is highly suggested you hop on our TS3 (you can see it in my sig) and get tactical.

The mission features 0,zilch,nada, none AI of any kind (air or ground). The mission is fairly light on the objects as well, in the hopes that can hopefully get over 100 people on and once without any performance problems. It's 1/20th of what we have going on in the main server to give you an idea.

With that said, blues will be attacking and reds defending. There are 4 spread out objectives for blues to bomb all throughout England. Blues will have a 4 hour window to get all the objectives or Reds will win. If Blues win and destroy all the objectives, the map will rotate. Consequently if Reds hold off the blues, after a certain amount of time, reds will successfully win.

This mission will definitely come down to how has the better tactics. I see it coming down to the final objective in a massive engagement, but we'll just have to wait and see ;)

Mission will start Saturday @ 6AM CST (so you Aussies/Kiwi's get the 1st crack at it) and will run throughout the weekend. This mission will be running on our second server, so the 1st one will be unchanged and still available.

Early Planesets:

Reds:

SpitMk1
HurriMk1

Blues:

109E1 (limited to only 15)
G.50
110C7
Stuka

With that said, especially blue pilots, if you've only flown the 109, time to learn some other crates :) I hope to see a bunch of G.50's plowing through!

Here's some screenies to prepare with:

Hopefully this goes off without a hitch. Hope you have fun ;)

Special thanks goes to ATAG_Watchman for making this mission for everyone to enjoy!

This will be posted on our forums as well.

Sweeeeet, count me in :D

This sounds absolutely fantastic.. When my performance improves.. im in!

great news, thank you. I will surely give a try.
may i ask, why arent heinkels and ju 88 s not in? few users or not feasible maybe for the current mission?
my hope , to be honest is that we wont get crashes after 1 hour or so ASAP as the travel distances have been increased.

The Ju88's and 111's when flown in formation always cause launcher crashes in our testing. But we've gotten away having huge formations of 110's and Stuka's before. That's the main reason they aren't included.

With the mission very light in objects and with absolutely 0 AI, I think performance will be quite good (even the crashing issue). It was that way in our testing anyhow. Only time will tell, I guess.

This looks great! AND it gives me a chance to show off my 2 speed prop chops in the Spitfire I :) :P :D

QUESTION about the Allied airfields. How was the testing on spawning at Maidstone and Gravesend? There seems to always be issues of wrecking on the ground for a lot of people when there's large amounts of people spawning at those rear airfields.

5./JG27 and 9./ZG26 will be there!

Is that this Saturday 18th of December 2011 at 12:00 midday CET?

I'll probably be on from 7 o'clock EST until Divorce o'clock EST

Did someone say bombers?
