Default Anyone interested in USAAF vs. IJ campaign?

I was thinking of Burma. Buffalos & Hawks (and P40s at some point) vs. whatever the Japanese have. Could try with the 50+ planes option on from DCG and see if everyone can handle it, would make a good fight. If not, then 25+ planes will have to do.

If we get atleast 2 + me I can host it tonight anywhere from 20GMT to 23GMT.

Also, what realism settings you'd prefer? Locked or open pit?

Both sides will be choosable. What I'd suggest is that you use the default skin with markings on. That way the other team cant identify your plane and go straight after it. I want this to be team vs. team instead of player vs. player.

EDIT:

Or how about a bigger campaign? Starting from Wake 41 (no Pearl Harbor campaign on DCG) to Japan 45. You pick your side on which you play the current campaign part (Wake 41, then if you want, change your side for the next theatre), let's say 20 sorties per theatre, the team with most kills win. After all the theatres are played, the team with most theatre wins is the winner of the Grand Campaign. This would naturally require set times when we play, to keep it under control. I can host 2-3 sorties per night, except for weekends. Tho, I must warn you, the Pacific theatre campaigns have quite long distances to fly, so you might end up having to fly 10-15min to your target and back.

So, what do you ppl think? Single campaign or Grand campaign?

I like the idea of a grand campaign, but all depends on how many players can be available ,as you know R.L. dictates when anyone's available.''due to time differences etc.'' so i like the idea of picking set times and nights. I'm available most nights.

and what you mean p40's will be available at some point?

Basically, the campaign only needs minimum of 2 players as there's ATLEAST 25+ other planes in the air doing their missions. I set it so there will be many small flights, instead of like in stock campaigns every fighter having usually the same mission etc.

As for the times, for time being, we can start at anytime during the evening as Hunter havent gotten his PC ready for online games yet.

And concerning the P40, it wasnt available on the first mission of the Burma campaign. Tho, I'm pretty sure I can change that from the DCG settings. As for Wake '41, P40 isnt available as it's carrier ops.
