Thank you for participating and helping us grow. We are still in the development stage and mistakes are made, but with active participants we try to mitigate as many bugs as possible. As of right now the theater on our server has to be manually adjusted after every session.  Eventually it will be a 24/7 server, where the front lines will move automatically based on the results of the previous session, in a way similar to TAW, but with more variables. 

 

As of today, we would like to apologize for a bug that was discovered when spawning in AAA truck.  The idea was for a human AAA to spawn in a secluded area, not to be visible by an opponent right away. As a result, some people spawned already dead or on fire, probably because they spawned into an object.  We will try to fix that issue by Tuesday. I know it upset some people, but please keep in mind that we are trying to resolve such bugs before the server goes full force operationally. Thank you for your understanding. Furthermore, if you encounter some other issues, please report them here or on our discord channel, which has an English section.

supply to a certain zone near your positions, which brings 20 units
ground vehicles and 0.5 guided vehicles.
- Added replenishment of the front using a car with anti-aircraft artillery,
thus imitating trucks. Each delivery replenishes 0.3
controlled equipment and 5 units. backup technology.
- Added the ability to transport ammunition to the front, not only by plane,
but also on anti-aircraft guns.
- Added the ability to win on the map by capturing key points.
- Added "main" airfields, which are more protected by anti-aircraft

"respawn" of ground equipment, for aircraft 10 km from any active
airfield.

Pilots,

 

We have completed our first campaign (Battle of Moscow). In a way it was a trial and error process that is still being refurbished as we speak. Nevertheless, we have made some important changes that should allow our guest to not only demonstrate their piloting skills, but to think and execute task on a tactical and even strategic levels. The biggest difference that is being implemented on our server is the ability to support friendly troops along the frontline by the variety of means throughout the mission.  We are not talking about just providing cover for a supply column, instead we are focusing on expanding the scope of logistic operations. As many of you know, the ground crews play an integral role in the success of the mission; in Historical Air War you can now provide replenishment supplies for the ground crew, using wheeled vehicles or tactical cargo aviation.  In addition, you can repair bridges, capture settlements and airfields, set up your own supply convoys, attacks and defenses. 

 

The many changes that have occurred after the Battle of Moscow campaign are now available in the Battle of Stalingrad.  For more information regarding the changes please visit the last post in this link https://discordapp.com/channels/1009865706122264626/1075793411463991316

 

Hope to see many of on our server, and if you are craving to fly for the Red Air force, you are more than welcome, since we are in a dire need of the Red pilots.

By the way, we are in dire need of the red experienced fighters. At this stage all of the red aircraft are available.

This is a fun server. But the stats website does not show all the past missions. None of the missions from July 29 are on the stats website.

Stats is something we are still trying to improve. We also added a new feature - Artillery spotter. You can pick a spotter aircraft (Pe-2 or Bf-110), circle over the target in the vicinity of 3 km, then your friendly artillery start to bombard enemy positions up to 17 km away.

3 miles you wanted to say? That's 5 km radius, 10km diameter. Too easy for spotter player cause you can make a low level approaches. No need to climb and see the target. Just touch that 10km circle and run away. Artillery's gonna open anyway. Then you can repeat that from different angle. Too hard for intercept fighter players. Lacking realism quite a bit.

No, it's actually 3 km while hovering over the target. Once you step outside of that boundary, artillery will stop firing. So a spotter will have to hover over the target for artillery to take any effect. 

 

As far the technochat goes. Our goal is to make this as realistic as possible, this includes learning your aircraft's characteristics and gages. We understand that it may be an inconvenience for some pilots, but we hope that it will only motivate them to learn the instrument panel as it was originally designed for.

No. it's actually 5 km.

From  server's russian discord "News" topic: 
Корректировка активна, если вы находитесь в радиусе 5 километров от центра вражеской атаки и на ЛЮБОЙ высоте.

Fellow pilots,

 

Historical Air War's second season starts tomorrow (Saturday, 2 September) at 1500 Zulu, end 2100 Zulu (1100-1700 EST, 0800-1400 EST). We have received much feedback from the players that participated in the previous campaign and have implemented several changes. Some of those changes include:

 

1. Normandy Map added as the last map of the season.

2. Bridges are added as targets, directly affecting attack's progress.

3. Bridges are repairable via cargo aviation.

4. Territory capture formula has been redone.

5. Changes are done to equipment economy, front collapse coefficient, team's flight-hour ratio, etc.

6. Plane set and Tank set are redone.

7. Hidden artillery is more accurate with the spotter aircraft.

8. Factories disappear from the map as the frontline moves closer in order to simulate factory evacuation.

9. In case of surrounding enemy territory with airfields, the capturing team will receive trophy aircraft.

10. Static aircraft have a lesser value.

11. Reserve warehouses require air surveillance.

 

We hope that such changes will make our server more thrilling and balanced. Hope to see many of you there.

Bonjour,

I just tried your server for the first time and would like to play more. But being in the North American eastern time-zone, it will be almost impossible.
Let me know if you decide sometime to run mission for a different time-zone closer to mine.

 

Keep up the good work !
Merci et au revoir
