Last week they buffed tank armor, this week its light vehicles and air, in order to combat this threat, its time for skyguards and AA Maxes (mostly skyguards), getting both costs 5 cert points, and hopefully we will be able to focus on camping air pads to keep people from taking off (this usually creates MUCH rage among pilots).
Failing that we may fall back on picnicking. To those of you that may have come out in the past, or never before, please consider this, anyone who wants a tutoring session will be able to get one Wed, Thur, or Friday if you have never played before or need to brush up. Its completely 100% free to download and try, see you on the battlefield. Day: SATURDAY Time: 7pm cst (or earlier) Ventrilo is mandatory IP: il2.leetvent.com Port: 3812 Pass: tightpants If you make a character please post their in game name here Fun in this game increases exponentially with the more people that join up so I hope to see more of the people that stated they were interested in the initial thread to come out, the game is FREE, but you are restricted to 14 days after which you will have to start all over again. If you get "suspended" or banned since the trial accounts are loopholes just make another one. Conversely you can spend $20 to pick up the game at direct2drive, which comes with a free month, this allows you to keep your character instead of having to re-level someone every 2 weeks. TRIAL INSTALLER Remember, the trials sometimes will RANDOMLY suspended you, just a heads up. Â Sig by Joel |

A word from the wise (aka I played on saturday): the Skyguard has serious issues defending itself from reavers now. While they buffed armor on both air and light vehicles, the surprise-and-rape tactic with a skyguard doesn't work nearly as well any more.
That's not going to stop me from driving one on Saturday though. ^_^ "If you want to be a Double E, bend over and grab your knees...." "Atom is Sexy!" <-- Donate your own pic to the cause! Victory needs no explanation. Defeat allows none. -Sun Tzu |

We went head-to-head with Prowlers and came out on top, it was ridiculous. Something that _wasn't_ a lot of fun was running a Thunderer, a Thresher, or an Enforcer, they can't defend themselves against air and there are WAY too many reavers out and about.

They'd have to up the bumper damage and bring back the ANT bomb for it to really be fun though. Suicide survival with ANTs! "If you want to be a Double E, bend over and grab your knees...."

Also as an encouragement to get new people to come out, if we hit some size critical number, like say 20, I'll either give away a copy of the game, or something on steam in a random drawing of everyone who came out.

Seems pretty unlikely you'd be invited to two parties in a year let alone a weekend.
