I am now a member of the 7th Fleet. I like this fleet, the lads are sound and banter is great.
On top of that the site here - ribbon award system, ship patch designs, forum, Ventrillo usage, ettiquette and the work that goes in enhances my gaming experience 200% - and as long as this is going (all good things - and all that) i will take part. BUT
I am starting to get bags under my eyes. the planetary dispersion and time diference is epic.
there was a suggestion made in 2013 for a european friendly set of events to get together for. this didn't really take off then. I dont know how many european fleet members we have at present so before I make any formal suggestion of a breakaway action set in a friendly time frame 19:00 - 21:00 (GMT) i would like to gauge how many would be interested.
This is not calling for a seperate fleet - or flotilla, more like something akin to something I served in - a NATO operation called Operation Active Endeavor. Allied ships detached (on loan) to take care of business on while the main surface fleet operated as normal.
it would make it possible for members to be slightly more active without becoming antisocial at home.
This would not detract me from taking part where I can - but for me it would further enhance the game.
Feedback?
