Wierd, we didnt see you up there.

I knew the thing was comming about the E4's and it has already been told to me. So unless you know of any way to get round this predicament - please let me know:


Red:

August
Spitfire - 34% (15 )
Hurricane - 66% Unlimited


Blue:

August
E1 - 40% Unlimited
E3 - 8% (4 )
E4 - 52% (23 )


Now the numbers in brackets were based on a turn out of 45 players a side. (9 blue bombers to fly any bombers including 110's as they wished.) Now the average attendance seems to be somewhere around 40/50 of the top of my head for both teams.

The limited aircraft are limited by script and wont despawn. There fore if some one spawns 20 Bf109E4's, there gone. So we added 10% to all limits for this purpose.

So with all this in mind. Everyone on blue (less than 23) players could in effect take an E4. Same goes for red (almost).

On the blue side we have limited it our selves per squadron, like thus:

Mission 1 distibution:



This was based upon the numbers in each squadron and is what each Staffel should be trying to stick too! - OR THEY ARE VERY NAUGHTY! Bad Germans! NO!


What have the red team done in this regard? I understand you have a choice between two different aircrat whereas the Blue main fighter is the same with different armament so your system would not be so mixed.



I was reliable informed by the person from the red team who asked the same question that the red team was:

RED TEAM MEMBER: There were some compaints about the number of E-4s, did you keep the August Balance of E-1s/E-4s?

5./JG27Farber: also i suspect to many spitfires the thing is were also not flying at full stregth ie 50 players

RED TEAM MEMBER: true - we had

56 up to 8 Hurricanes
401 up to 6? Hurricanes
501 up to 6? Hurricanes
71 up to 6 Hurricanes (plus Spits below)

64 Sqdn up to 6 Spitfires (hopefully IIa's as the patched Ia is still naff)
71 up to 6 Spitfires ---- Ditto ----
41 up to 3 Spitfires

5./JG27Farber: so because the teams are not full this will happen

RED TEAM MEMBER: but not all seats got filled

5./JG27Farber: however aircraft are limited E4,E3 and spit are limited to the numbers shown in the set up of the campaign

RED TEAM MEMBER: Yes. We had 14 spits up and about 20 Hurricanes


This is roughly 41% Spitfires (34% allowed) and 59% Hurricanes (66% allowed). So all I can garentee is that there were no more than

Spitfire - 17*
E3 - 5*
E4 - 25*

*+10% was added for spawn deaths etc. (I think these are the correct numbers.)



So as you can see, its a two way street. However niether side should use this as an excuse to do what they want!


If anyone can find a solution to this problem, I would love to hear it. Bear in mind - people want to know what they are flying before hand, not just turn up and grab what they can!


Somethings are just beyond our control.

S!
