Gents,

I enjoyed FOM and had some very memorable battles in all the frames (except Fr.1).

The major critique is side balance. I understand the setup and simulated time period was lopsided, as was the real events. But there simply were not enough enemy.

~S~ the 4th FG for their role this series. Having been on the short end for many an S3, I know the pain flying into 1:3 or greater odds.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That said...Ki27 vs Brewsters; and Ki43 vs. Hawkers were outstanding matchups, especially in the late frames. A well flow Hurricane vs. a well flown Hayabusa made for some great battles, like we had over Singapore last night.

Thank you, all, for your work to preserve our Sunday nights.

~S~

Sakai, we appreciate your comments. Only by hearing from players can we make positive adjustments to future S3's.

Yes this one was set up to be historically lopsided. While we may have a scenerio that calls for it again, I dont think we will go that lopsided in the future as we want to keep this interesting for all players. I was dodging 4 cons at a time when I was over Singapore...

To keep things fresh, we have 2 more S3's in the works that are in never before used terrains. Hope you all enjoy them!

Many thanks nookyb. A big SALUTE to you and 4th for attempting such a lopsided event.
While it may not be remembered as one of the top ten S3's, you guys rock.

Thanks for keeping the S3's going.

Thanks Nookyb, AE's had fun this series.
Job well done considering the 4th had it's hands full the entire time.
Valiant fight over Singapore in frame 5.

Thanks to you and the others for the time you put in on these.

<S> sir.
