Wings~of~War: Midway 1942

Unread post by Tiger »

Wings~of~War is a continuous 24 hour, 7 day dynamic campaign for IL-2 Sturmovik: 1946 4.09b1m, on a bundled T-1 connection using the AAA Unified Installer v1.1.1, FB Daemon II (FBD2) and Lowengrin's Dynamic Campaign Generator (DCG). The Wings~of~War Server will go online at 0001 hours; 12:01 a.m. Eastern Standard Time on Monday, 14 September 2009 and will go offline at 0001 hours; 12:01 p.m. Eastern Standard Time the following Monday, 21 September 2009. The server will reset every two hours to keep the Wings~of~War generated mission objectives current and up to date. A two hour session will equal one campaign day. At the end of the one week period we will tally the scores to determine the victor.

The victory conditions and objectives for each battle are determined by the mission generator. The briefing will contain reports of conflicts in various areas of the map. You will need to fly in defense of your ground units as they will be attacked by enemy on the ground and in the air. Reports of the previous day’s activity will be displayed along with the mission briefing.

Rules

1.) Each participant must be registered for the event. You can find the link to the registration form on the main page of the web site. The link is entitled Event Registration.
2.) All participants must be listed as an active squadron member on their website’s roster.
3.) There will be a limit of 30 pilots per side in the server at any one time.
4.) All pilots will fly with the appropriate markings
5.) Any pilot found to be cheating (flying hacked, exiting the server to avoid a death, etc.) will be banned for the remainder of the campaign.

Scoring

Points are awarded depending upon what happens to the plane that you shoot at in each combat. Points are awarded differently based on what happens to the enemy aircraft that you targeted and whether it is destroyed in the air, force-lands, crash lands at a friendly base or another aircraft intercepts it on its return journey to base. The last plane to shoot into the enemy aircraft will be awarded the kill points. If ground units also hit the target and no air hits were achieved the ground unit is regarded as the killing unit. If the targeted plane does not disintegrate but lands successfully the score is ignored. Pressing "Re-Fly" adds the points achieved in the last sortie to the score.

Scoring is based on the default values for targets. A list of target values can be found here; Target Values. You must survive and return to base to get 100% of your score. If you are forced to land outside of the boundaries of an allied airbase you will be awarded 70% of your score. You will be awarded 50% of your score if you bail out over friendly territory. You will not be awarded any of your score if you are captured or die in combat.

Sit Out Times

The Wings~of~War Server is set up to govern itself meaning that the sit out times, aircraft ordnance load outs, etc., are handled by the Dynamic Campaign Generator and FB Daemon II. If you bail out over friendly territory you can re-fly immediately. If you bail out over enemy lines you have a 1 in 10 chance of escape.

Death/Capture Penalty: 15 minutes (approximately)

This starts on a Monday - and I am going to make certain I fully understand MODs and how they work well before that.

So how does this work? It runs 24hrs a day - do you just hop in whenever you can (whether solo or with your squad) and fly? Or are there set times that people will be up and flying?

S!~ Medar,

Yes, the campaign runs for a solid week and you enter the server at any time to fly. There is always something to do while the campaign is running. If you're alone you can bomb targets, and if you're opposed you can go hunting to make sure that the enemy doesn't bomb your targets. Normally, the RCAF and =AVG= show up in force for the beginning of the event which sets the tone for the rest of the campaign. The Manchuria 1945, Normandy 1944, and North Africa 1943 Campaigns were a blast. I am really looking forward to this one, as it promises to be just as intense as the last event.

Tblaster, you won't have to choose a side. Warren will select the sides for us. We'll probably fly Axis first, and then switch. We've been switching sides and playing again since the Normandy campaign. That way both teams fly both sides and we tally the total points to determine the victor.

@ Badbet: I'm pumped too! It's been too long since we have done one of these and I'm having withdraws. I keep thinking about that spoof I did for a commercial and laughing my ass off;
Boredom is an affliction shared by millions of people all over the world. While some symptoms of boredom are serious, it can be treated.

Ask you doctor about Normandy.

A Normandy Campaign increases the heart’s activity 24 hours a day, for up to 7 days a week. It is recommended that you monitor your heart's activity while taking Normandy as your doctor can use this information to help determine whether the cause of your unexplained boredom may be related to an actual medical condition.

Mild side effects, including sweaty palms, dry mouth, and temporary Turrets Syndrome, have been experienced while using Normandy. If you experience any of these symptoms for more than 4 hours, stop taking Normandy and consult your doctor.

Lead a more fulfilling life. Ask your doctor if Normandy is right for you.
