ABS FIESTA REDUX

[Qwepir]

• Change A-10C trait "Clumsy" to "Slowpoke (Automatically fail all offensive and defensive pursuit rolls)"

not a fan of forcing automatic failures, though i agree something should be put in place so that an a-10 cant keep up with a supersonic plane in a chase. maybe they get a hefty penalty for pursuing and can't keep the pursuit (and therefore, the +20 guns bonus for being in a tail chase) for more than one turn or something (because even if by some miracle they get behind someone, the target could just speed up and get away)

• Introduce Tier 1 Su-25T with "Clumsy" trait for NAUC, faster but smaller with less ordnance capacity

mite happen, while doing this i noticed NAUC has exactly 0 dedicated strike planes, which is a little odd (this isnt to say that nauc never had strike planes, just that i never statted any for abs fiesta)

• Introduce Tier 3 Harrier GR.9 for the Imperium

maybe

• Lorens gets A-10C mastery +2

ok

[Gojira]

"Pleasure meeting you as well," responds Markus, slightly intrigued by Loren's use of a hand towel.

[CypherX]

"And you," Gus says, equally intrigued.

He turns towards Markus.

"I don't believe we've formally met."

He extends his hand towards Markus as well.

[Operator¹]

maybe

what about the strike raptor

[Gojira]

"Good to meet you as well."
Markus returns the handshake.

• Lorens gets A-10C mastery +2

Two things. One I pined for this in the first place but was turned down. Two, everybody now also gets a +2 to all aircraft within the category of their piloting preference (A2A Preference results in +2 to Interceptors and Air Superiority fighters, A2G Preference results in +2 to Strike aircraft, and Multirole preference results in +2 to Multirole planes. Nobody gets a bonus to Omnifighters for the simple reason that they tend to end up better than everything else that isn't an Omnifighter anyways and the +2 is completely unnecessary in that regard.)
This means that the highest possible EV bonus you can get is now +12 in your respective category if you stick with the plane long enough. This surpasses regular aces and most named characters (Who tend to be around a +6 through +10), and matches super aces like Xiaomei (+12 is loving broken.)
So I probably should have brought that up. The +2 to A-10 comfort is still going into Lorens' profile though.

[CypherX]

Xiaomei is +12? Holy stuff I didn't know we were flying with the Red Baron

[Gojira]

good god

[Operator¹]

time to max out the mig-29 then

[NoZoner]

Lorens crouches down and starts petting the big dog in the middle of the group.

"How about you? What's your name? I don't think I got it the last time we met."

[Tayasaurus]

I like how the "rec room" is the "basically everything" room.

[Swat 3]

Aero looks from afar.

its a convenient meeting place

Xiaomei is +12? Holy stuff I didn't know we were flying with the Red Baron

there is only one other +12 in the game, and he is not a friend

what about the strike raptor

mercana didnt adopt the raptor though, and their "advanced strike plane" niche is filled by the razorback

[Mr. Hurricane]

"This is Jalko," Jaakko says referring to the colossal dog in the middle of the group.

"And Talko,"

He points to the dog that is nuzzling Markus' arm for attention.

"I'm Jaakko Kirves, or Crash. Flight lead," he says, extending a hand.

it was directed as a suggestion for the goths though
