DD_Jabo Posted December 5, 2017 Posted December 5, 2017 (edited) Hi everyone, The DangerDogz are looking for new members! Word has it that there's a war on so we are bringing our own special brand of chaos and mayhem to IL-2 Great Battles. We have been online since 2006 when the squad was formed by Jim 'Blairgowrie' Smith who some here may remember. Since Jim passed away in 2011 we have continued to maintain the squad but we want more pilots! Fliers of all abilities are welcome, the only requirement is to HAVE FUN! Play other simulators? No problem! We are also very active on DCS and are continuing to maintain our very popular public CloD/DW server with rotating missions and a mixture of BoB and NA action. Come and join the fun over at http://www.dangerdogz.com or click the link in my sig below - Tell 'em Jabo sent you. ***STOP PRESS*** In response to overwhelming demand we now have a dedicated Tank Crew night - Satuday night is Tank night!

Mangia_e_Bevi Posted December 24, 2017 Posted December 24, 2017 Hi Dogz! I popped over to the site but could not find an appropriate area to apply although I was able to register for the site itself. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm a long time (read that as old....) simmer and real-world pilot based on the US East Coast although flying online using a chat client will be a new experience for me. If you have some type of a "newbie" guide on the site please drop me a link. Thanks in advance, Jim 1

DD_FT- Posted December 8, 2019 Posted December 8, 2019 20 minutes ago, Leon_Portier said: Do you guys fly PE-2? Yes we do, every now and then. We do coops, using Syn_Vander's brilliant Easy-Mission-Generator, and one can select it as a playable a/c ... though to be honest, it's all kinda random, so like today we had sessions on the Rheinland map, Stalingrad and Moscow maps - No Pe-2 in it this time... But my guess is that if you join our group, and on TS you drop the PE2 word at a suitable moment, you might just kick off the right idea, and the next mission might have it in it ...
DD_Jabo Posted March 10, 2020 Author Posted March 10, 2020 (edited) I'm going to assume that's a good thing... Edited March 10, 2020 by DD_Jabo
DD_Jabo Posted March 10, 2020 Author Posted March 10, 2020 (edited) Just bumping this again as our recuitment drive is definitely on the up! Hi everyone, Firstly the bad news...As of the beginning of this year we are no longer flying IL-2 1946 as the reducing numbers of active pilots has led a decision not to maintain a session for this sim. Equally, we are also not continuing a regular session for Blitz for the same reason - This may be reinstated when V5 drops but for the time being we will concentrate on providing our Blitz server for community access. These new arrangements mean that the DDz are now flying GBS on Sundays and Tuesdays and DCS on Mondays and Thursdays! So we are still looking for new members! The war is going better for the Allies with an invasion of occupied France due in the next year so more pilots will be required on both sides! We have been online since 2006 when the squad was formed by Jim 'Blairgowrie' Smith who some here may remember.

We'll do all the operational bits and you'll be all set! Cheers! Jabo
DD_Jabo Posted August 13, 2020 Author Posted August 13, 2020 Do YOU have what it takes? Do YOU choose a summer skin for your aircraft on a Winter map? Do YOU get confused between turning left and right? If so, you're ideal Dog(z) material! Fly GBS and DCS with the DangerDogz on Sundays (GBS), Mondays (DCS), Tuesdays (GBS) and Thursdays (DCS). If numbers dictate, we may reinstate our CloD/Tobruk night on Wednesdays also. Head over to www.dangerdogz.com to find out more.

Edit: I scolled up and found it Hi Leon, we don't host public TC nights at this stage due to cost and management constraints, but I've asked the individuals in charge if there's a way we can invite specific guests to join in if they've expressed an interest. Stay tuned. Also edited my post for clarity - Thanks Leon Edited January 28, 2021 by DD_Jabo
DD_Friar Posted January 30, 2021 Posted January 30, 2021 (edited) @[N.O.G.F]Leon_Portier I seem to have found myself as Chief Mission Maker for the Dogz. I have just followed your link to have a look at yours and I must say the Tank dogfight scenarios look very interesting for us. Our full flying/tanking diary is as follows (all times based on current UK time) Monday 19:30 DCS practice / missions (we have pilots that only speak in acronyms...) Tuesday 19:30 start with dogfight mess about kill or be killed till around 20:15/20:30 when we go to co-ops. Wednesday 19:30 Cliffs of Dover (we run a popular public server 24/7) Thursday 19:30 DCS practice/ missions Friday 19:30 Nothing set but developing into tankers joining public servers (mainly Finish Pilots Dynamic mixed) Saturday 19:30 Tank dogfight map with firing range with multiple side by side firing positions and town skirmish scenarios then coops. Sunday 19:30 GBS 19:30 dogfight till 20:30ish then coops. We are also a number of months into a PWCG P38 campaign against AI which we take a little more seriously than usual coops that have restarts for when we crash on take off, forget to start track ir...... We have pilots from North America, Canada (who often fly as a group in their time zones as well as with the U.K. Guys), Europe and even Australia. Come on by and say hi, you will be made welcome.

DD_Jabo Posted May 18, 2021 Author Posted May 18, 2021 (edited) It is with a heavy heart I have to announce that our 24/7 CloD/DW server has been shut down permanently. The workload involved in managing the server (which up until now has rested with a single member of the squad) not to mention the costs of maintaining the service have made the current situation untenable. FT has turned the details of the random mission generator over to another group who are I believe going to use it on their own servers so it will probably resurface somewhere else, but we will no longer be hosting CloD on our own servers.

DD_Friar Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 (edited) Salute If Tanks are your thing, then come look us up. We have just finished a 6 week "Battle of the Bulge" themed event with us playing German against AI Allied forces replicating the push to Bastogne through difficult terrain and weather. Prior to that we ran another 6 week event called the "Road to Arnhem" where we drove the M4a2 from Veghel to Nijmegen. Other exciting events to come... We run an exclusive tank map 24/7 which has an extensive firing range with over 80 targets both stationary and moving (including aircraft for the AAA wagon), a "Hunt The Tiger" game, Town and Open battlefield conflicts against AI. The free tanks are included. We run tank missions (no planes) on a Saturday evening UK time (approx. on TeamSpeak from 19:30, events start around 20:30 and generally finish around 22:00/22:30. We have also been known to join Advance & Secure as a group. Even if you do not own tank crew but want a session to see what it is about, come look us up and try multicrew. It really does make a difference to playing Tank Crew. As my squad mate @DD_Jabo has posted, we also fly GBS on Sundays and Tuesdays for dogfights and co-ops, DCS on Mondays and Thursdays. Come and say hi on the forum www.dangerdogz.com Edited June 17, 2021 by DD_Friar 1 1
