We need to start planning for the 4 squad matches. We'll need to get person's involved including the AA pilots.
We've got a practice match coming up soon with Warships USHA and TS. I'd like to get there pretty organized, so I need all of your input and thoughts on the matter.

I guess we need to brian storm some tactics.
My initial thoughts are that the strategies will not need to be quite so fast changing / "dynamic" as needed for the LTS matches, although if we are rushed we could use the LTS tactics.
As for BSS practice, we had 13 sign up for roll call, and there's a few AA pilots now .... so if we could get 9 or more pilots to a Sunday training session, we should try 3 teams of three, 4 teams if we get 12 etc. To this end, we could also invite select friends, like anyone from USHA or Birdy etc etc. If we could have 4 or 5 a side - 3 BSS squads and a squad of guests would be good.
Any dates for this first friendly ? I'll start posting invites for friendlies in the various AA forums.

4 Squad is a game of chess to start with.
All aircraft scramble..
Once the scramble starts .. it is a constant map watch .. watch what each team is doing.
Most likely.. the baddest guy on the block will NOT engage BSS. Reason: They will take us ez targets out later.
If the BSS is not in an aggressive stance to start with.. we are not considered a 'threat' as yet.
Coy.. and cunning prevail.. then skill in the combat area.
The idea.. is try to maneuver constantly as a wing in a way that 'forces' the other opponents to engage.
Remember.. this is NOT an LTS format. So once shot down you go right back up again. Rounds are based on 'time'. So its really important NOT to get pinned .. the other guy wants as many points as possible. Now here is where the BSS ir a primary target .. once we get shot down and start taking off.. you can expect that 'other' team to try and keep us down.
I've seen in 4 squad were US SU to at it .. and on the other side of the map.. GB and GE keep going at it.
Its a wild ride folks
