Dark_Swordmaster posted:What're the rules on owning the game and loving around? I don't mean recreating loadouts or running trial missions, but maybe doing some scouting and mock order/zone placement. I'm cool with that. Once I build the area I can release that as a .scen for anyone to run tests with. The actual hostile loadouts, composition, and behavior will be different.

Thefluffy posted:Greenpeace with an airforce? What is this, strangereal?! So I'm doing a Let's Read of Wingman, an awful Mack Maloney pulp series that takes place in an alternate history where WW3 causes the United States to break up into warring factions and PMCs. It predates Ace Combat and Crimson Skies by about a decade, but this campaign reminds me way too much of the books, especially the first one where entire chapters are dedicated to the protagonist wheeling and dealing to buy Korean War and Vietnam War vintage aircraft to assemble into a hodgepodge air force. Most of the enemies are mercenaries and air pirates who work for the bad guys, and the good guys hire their own mercs to bolster their numbers. It's lovely and Mack has no clue how aircraft or weapons work despite cumming all over the F-16, but it's unintentionally hilarious at times.

Davin Valkri posted:By the way, what's a "retainer"? Is it travel expenses or an up-front bonus? This is to cover initial expenses, travel fees, wages, and, most importantly, to insure our services. If the customer backed out for whatever political reason then we still get some payment. It also prevents us from playing all the sides, they are retaining our services.

Put me in as Gemini, and I'll drop another vote for Tibet/India. Also, just a personal opinion, but I think it'd be cool if we grabbed some Mirage F1s in the future.

Tapco votes for Tibet via India in hopes of getting to fly a MiG-21 Bison some day. After that, I'd start mercilessly lobbying to put an AESA radar on it.

As of right now we have a significant majority voting for Tibet - India. I'm not going to call it yet, but I'd say you can probably pack short sleeves and sandals. Once we've made our decision on Mission location I'll allow you to vote for our support specialist. We've only got room on the roster for one. I think you'll have a hard time deciding between our extraordinarily competent candidates.

Is this system grognardy enough to simulate air pressure and oxygen requirements? I know Tibet is pretty loving high up, to the extent that commercial planes don't really fly in the country due to the added risk during accidental depressurization.

This post synergizes well with your av quote. As to the answer to the actual question, I dunno.

I don't know if it's much of an issue for fighters as most engagements happen at 36,000 feet. It's extraordinarily groggish in many details, but not sure how much of an impact oxygen or pressure has. Usually if a plane takes that sort of damage it's just dead.

Well folks, Hired Goons is off to India. Our employer is UN backed NGO's and the Indian Government. Already the TLA has denounced us as a destabilizing force and consider us to be "merchants of death" to be dealt with accordingly. China has kept quiet on the matter. Our HR department has forwarded me three dossiers. We can pick one of these fine folks to be our operation asset for this deployment. It seems that outsourcing the HR duties to a guy named BobTheHippie2944 on Fiverr.com might not have been the best idea. But these all look quite talented.

I detest everything about Zack as a person, but he's useful so gently caress it let's bring him on board. If we're gonna be taking down CVBG's in the name of Gaia we'll need cutting edge tech and/or hordes of disposable drones to soak up the AMRAAMs

Have to go with Jack, the CIA couldn't escape a paper bag without losing half of the operatives. Plus those defense attorneys he knows might come in handy if there's any complications?
