This is a real game changer whats your thoughts?? Alot of big squads can no longer accept pilots..and for GI after cutting most inactive players were still over 50...just curious about others feed back on this...This opens the door to alot of future new squads as well as part 2 squads

Maybe the larger squads could have an "elite" squad for their members who have attained III Air Chief Marshal and up? For Misfits I suggested a MORAF only squad to free up spots.

This is a good thing. 32 per squadron really would be best. From that you could form larger organization with your top players taking position in each squadron. Would give good incentive to each player vs being lost in the bullpen. Preference for reaper is to be smaller and build our flyers. But however it is setup is fine.

Hi there!

Posted this before on Zupermans topic about this...so if you are having a déjà vu....it's not just you.

Hasn't the wheel already been invented in real life?
I don't know how things were managed in during the First World War, when they díd have to invent it, but after an hour or so of Wikipedeing I came up with this: (probably not absolutely correct,so feel free to shoot at it!)











A brigade (up to 192 planes) is two wings,
a wing (or a group) is two squadrons,
a squadron (12 to 24 planes) is four flights,
a flight is 3 to 6 planes.

So it's the understanding of a 'Squadron' that is a bit lost in the game.
Each Dogfight 'Squadron' should consist of smaller units.

Wouldn't it be an idea to be able to apply for a spot in an upcoming "Squadron War'game.....and when it's full, it's full. and your place and role in the game is according to rank.

Or we could split the 'Squadrons' up in historically correct smaller units, and call them M.O.M brigade, Misfits Brigade, Dragons Whatever Brigade etc.

1st. and 2nd. Group (or Wing) of that Brigade,

Alpha and Bravo Squadron of that Group (or Wing) of that Brigade,

...and then some nitty-gritty about the four Flights of each Squadron of that Group (or Wing) of that Brigade.

Wouldn'd that be cool if you could make them out on the marking of the planes......or didn't they have that in WW1?

(But we all know it is highly unlikely that any of the Flights, Squadrons, or any of those units will ever see action together in full strength, because we are all playing at different times of the day and in different timezones.)

So wouldn't the signing up idea be something to take into consideration?

Well, just a thought.

"Adventure is úp there!"

Good point....well us at G.I has done the split with a secondary squadron GI2 so far has been a success and seems to look like its gonna work just my thought for those considering doing the same!! Wasn't crazy about it but so far so good...
