Rosters
There are no rosters as such in the AAIT.  If somebody is a member of your squad they may fly on your team. All squads are asked to be honorable and use ONLY members of their squads.

Scheduling
Liaisons will be responsible for scheduling their match (Day and Time). Once agreement is reached they will create a thread in the AAIT Match Scheduling forum – and they will have a server assigned. Squads should make all effort to meet their commitments – and ensure they have spare players available.

Match Rules (Liaisons must know these)

Pre-Match
Competing Liaisons must be in contact before their scheduled match to choose which Liaison will start the Match timer and execute server administrative commands.

Match Format
Each side will have 8 pilots - a side is permitted to play short handed.
Each match will consist of two 60 minute rounds.
Each squad will take turns being the Attacker & Defender.
Each squad must record a track of both rounds of the match.

Starting the Match
Players join the server but MUST NOT HIT FLY – this is to ensure the match server stats are accurate and because each player has limited lives.

  1. Once all players are in the server to begin round 1 of the match the chosen Liaison will execute the restart map command. This will reset the map and all the targets.
  2. Non-Airstart players spawn in and taxi to takeoff positions
  3. Each team announces ready when all taxiing aircraft are ready
  4. Once each team is ready the chosen Liaison executes <timer 61 in chat to set the server timer and then executes the timer chat script with ‘timer60’ in the shift+tab screen
  5. Players wait until Go! Is displayed – upon which airspawn pilots may enter (be careful and stagger spawning at airstarts or collisions will occur) and pilots on the ground may take off.
  6. Once a round begins, the pilots that started the round are the only pilots that can complete the round.
  7. The round continues until either the timer runs out OR a side is given victory
  8. A screenshot must be taken of the victory text
  9. Once a round is complete there will be a 5-minute break
  10. In between rounds squads may substitute pilots for the second round, but once they start the round they are the only pilots that can finish the round.
  11. Once the 5-minute break is complete squad members will then re-enter the server to prepare the start of the next round.
  12. Once all players are back in the server the Liaison will repeat steps 1 to 8.

Post Match

For each won round the winner receives 2 points.
For each lost round the loser receives 0 points.
For each tied round (neither side wins) each side receives 1 point.

One of the squad liaisons will report the results in the AAIT results forum and the other liaison will confirm.

Player rules (each player must know these)
  1. Each player has only TWO lives per round. If you are kicked from the server for deaths you may not rejoin the server until the round has completed.
  2. Respawning -Pilots will not hit refly unless any of the below applies:
    -The server is telling them they may not fly that aircraft
    -They are landed
    -They are “Pilot Killed” – in which case they must hit refly immediately
    -Their aircraft has crashed into the ground.
    -They are in their chute
  3. If a pilot that starts the round gets disconnected during the match only that pilot will be allowed to reconnect to the server to continue flying.  If that pilot had a death prior to disconnection they must voluntarily disconnect after their next death.
  4. Pilots may fly any aircraft that is available. As most maps will have plane limits they should use the ‘<planes’ command (in chat) to display available aircraft before choosing one. (Note: the command includes in flight aircaft in the total available).
  5. If A player spawns and is warned that they may not fly that aircraft they should immediately hit refly and select a different aircraft type. If no aircraft are available they may wait until another aircraft has returned and become available (ie swapping pilots for an aircraft).
  6. Pilots must make a reasonable effort to stay on the map at all times. Wandering short distances off is understandable but no effort to traverse off the map to avoid the enemy is allowed.
  7. Pilots must make all effort to land at a friendly airbase.  An aircraft that is ‘deadstick’ may emergency land anywhere but if captured it counts as a death .
  8. Vulching and perching is allowed.
  9. Chute killing is not allowed.
  10. The use of lights and smoke is allowed.
  11. All pilots must use the proper markings that coincide with the theatre of war e.g. German planes wear German markings.
  12. All pilots must have a unique identifier on their plane (i.e. – aircraft number). This will allow for easy identification during track replays.
  13. Custom skins are not allowed.
  14. Bad attitude or unsportsmanlike behavior will not be tolerated – Squads exhibiting bad behavior will be removed from the tournament and blacklisted from any future A^A events. This tournament is for fun so leave the ‘tude at the door ;)
  15. The use of ‘Modified’ versions of IL2 1946 is strictly prohibited.
