Hi everyone.
Been reading through many of the posts on here regarding New Private Worlds and thought what it would be like to do something a little bit different.
We are all used to playing in 5 year Worlds set from the 90s or newer where really you don't have to think or plan.
Buy ATRs, then Dash 8s, then CRJs, then Airbus or Boeing depending on your usual game play and strategy.
Nothing wrong with that, it's pretty much the bread and butter of the games available (and the ones you have a shot at winning).
Unfortunately, long games also seem to lose players and interest is quickly lost if only a few ACTIVE players remain logging in.
However, I have recently joined my first 'public' World and am having tremendous fun.
Real planning, gate usage, monthly maintenance are suddenly important.
It would be impossible to recreate in a Private World these new pressures of playing against 200 hundred people as people come and go.
However, I thought I would just see what possible interest there is for THIS new Private World.
Game play is long enough so that even those working or studying can dip in and out and not feel the game is moving to fast between log ins for them to compete.
I am happily, one of the 'usual old timer' suspects, but would like to think trying something where you actually have to THINK about your airline could entice some new blood.
Maybe the game I propose doesn't go far enough to stretch some or seems to complex for others, but here goes.
Start year 1975
Game length 25
Start Gate 1
Start A/C 727-200 ADV
Max Base 16

Just let me know what you think.
Ideas appreciated.
Happy flying.
