Sounds great! Im a bit perplexed tho as to how this works. f.ex if a Gold field has 10 190A4s but no one takes off from that field, does it mean that the number will increase every 3 minutes, so after say 60 minutes of no one taking off at a certain field, there would then be 30 190A4s available? OR.... would it be the case that a new plane is added every 3 minutes ONLY IF the number available from that field at the time is less than the 10 total allowed, and it would only add a plane every 3 minutes until it reached 10 again, at which point no further planes of that type would be added until it went below 10 again? Hope that makes sense Regardless, seems like a nice idea and adds something a bit different to the game. -glas-
It sounds excellent, but... ten planes of each type?!? And only 3 minutes for respawning each of them? Maybe with the numbers in the arena, 5 would be better... and 5 or more minutes for respawning single aircraft for this type. Or you could distribute the plane number for small (5), medium (10), big (15) field? Anyway, as an idea it has great potential! <S> EDIT: Whoops, rgreat posted just before I posted my stuff So, 10 is the limit? Fine with the 'ferrying' planes thing, but I believe time should be increased
There is a flaw however - reds having usually 1,5 times more available types will have 1,5 times more planes available at single field. With low player numbers this is not important, but if reds have 2-3 comparably good planes and gold have 1 good, golds are at a significant disadvantage... And I don't say it because 303 flies gold in this tod Other than that I like the idead It's something new and maybe it will add to the game
Snakeye have a point, but 1 more thing what happens when we go up form CV, now golds have only 1 plane type and if reds kill fast then raid from CV is pointless, isn't it then after 3 min u can have only 1 zero, or if red or golds kill 10 ju 52 or Li-2 u mast wait for 3 min for new one, and that's a long time for that plane type.
Could they arrange that a plane is say 'faster' to make than another? For example, a 262 lost would be replaced much slower than a Yak-3. Or that thing mwolf said about early war gold CV planes.
we'll see but in early tod, it will have some desagrements. as i anderstood, if ten planes take off and be killed in less of 5 min, only one is avalable... will be hard but encourage to attac other field than defencive operations. is it the same for hmack?
imho bad idea what if i want to fly with my sq mate and i take last plane of the type? snake made a most accurate point, look at curret rps: lagg, spits, p40, f4f, hurri, i16, i15, soon yak1 vs 109e, 109f2, 110, a6m2 btw id prefere streak restrictions than this; one more edit: how about one mroe rule - if u landed aircraft u can fly it again no matter if theres any left in hangar; in such case i could approve; that could encourage ppl to rtb; its a little different than what is in rules... i often relax couple minutes in twr after a sortie, that wouldnt be fair if someone steal my plane
rgreat, interesting idea however what about if i land my uberplane at field and just after taxi horde of ground pilots take my last bird ... have to change field? looks very bad , could you please do some ID's for last plane used , cancelled when field changed from tower
Good idea, but needs fixing (more gold planes on field as Snakeye proposed)... also changing the number of planes accordingly to field size... streak restrictions would be a good idea too, to prevent suicidal defence of fields.
from now on ill relax killin tigrou btw, destroyin hangar would take -1 or -2 planes from each type; but landed aircraft always should be available to the pilot that rtbed in it;
I agree with "spuint" -->if u landed aircraft u can fly it again no matter if theres any left in hangar But you must to change the rules to CV gold, maybe more them 10 planes available each type. Gold bombers from CV are so weak defensive guns and armour (only japanese type). Reds have more models available. And -> Curret rps: lagg, spits, p40, f4f, hurri, i16, i15, soon yak1 vs 109e, 109f2, 110, a6m2 7 reds planes x 4 golds ones At this moment squads who fly to gold side will be in whole disadvantage. What do you think "regreat"? And what you can do to equalize this difference?
The number of planes should be balanced between reds and golds... As Snakeye said, reds have more plane types, so they will have more available planes (in numbers)...
Hell that'd be great that the reds have more planes, because only a certain amount are good! SO, if you can knock em down they are forced to take shitty aircraft, and thus you are superior. Then again that goes both ways. Continue.
