Map Details for Air Support 2

This is a revised version of Air Support, meant to supercede the original, but of course it's up tot he server admins to decide which they like better. :) Air Support is an air-centric mission, with large floating bases, multiple vehicle pads, and a large distance between the bases. This really encourages air-battles, and a lot of people have really enjoyed this map. Revisions were at the suggestion of players, and include the addition of sentry turrets in a variety of places, and a few more inventory stations. Enjoy!

It's a classic, what else can I say ?

With almost a year of service on HV this is still one of my favorites.

All right map, pretty bland if you'd ask me. Not a whole lot to it. If you love Air Vehicle missions you'd be a fool to pass this over. I stick with my rating.

i can't get onto my server when Air Support 2 comes up in the rotation. that's how much people like it. actually, they seemed to go nuts over the first one too, but the revised version makes flag capping a little more interesting and base-raping a little harder. plus, the large distance between base is a good way of driving home the message: "hey, lone n00b shrike pilot ... lose that plane and you walk back to base." :) yes, the kids love their vehicle maps. most of them get annoying after a while. today people begged me to extend time on this map until i had set it at unlimited after an hour's worth of play. that's a good map, IMO.

Great level! Air battles in abundance. Gens are quite hard to kill without fusion mortar now because of turrets protecting them. Flags may seem a little exposed, but from my experience there are always people in that area anyway.

The territory around the bases isn't identical, with the result that players without energy packs can't jump up to one base from the ground, but they can reach the other. I would fix one side or the other just for fairness. Airbattles you got, in spades, plus snipers on the hillsides. Taking generators down has rewards, though it might be a little too easy. The complexity of the bases makes it hard for defenders to move around inside quickly.

Very nice upgrade from air support! The sentry turrets make a real difference!
