With the combat aspect of YSFlight slowly dwindling. I am going to try to rejuvenate the fighting spirit that many users in YSFlight enjoy. The 171st had a internal squad system where the sub-squadrons would compete against each other to keep their combat skills up to par. By implementing this type of competition to the mass users on YSFHQ, the interest in YS combat may significantly increase.
Note: [s]I am currently waiting on Ice's approval to publicly release our squad maps that were for 171st use only for Squad Wars.[/s] In the mean time, we will wait about 2 weeks so members can organize their teams. You are more than welcome to create some of your own maps intended for Squad Wars, be sure to contact me for standards required in a Squad War map.

Rules:
3 Players minimum are required per team.
5 Players maximum allowed per team.
In a battle, only 3 players per team are allowed on the playing field
Some maps may only require one member per team to compete. If that is the case, then we will do a best out of three so each member on the team can compete.
Any plane of your choice may be used. Squadron planes, stock planes, etc. (As long they have reasonable .dat)
Teams may consist of members from different squadrons
Trim is forbidden in combat fights.
3 flare rule not regulated.

With many of our users heavily invested in modeling maps, its always nice to have many different maps to play on!
If you are interested in making a map for Squad Wars, send me a PM asking for requirements needed in making a Squad War Map.
Server owners requested to help host Squad Wars perhaps on the weekends.
