Up this week: Spanish Civil War
« on: June 14, 2012, 08:15:19 AM »


SPANISH CIVIL WAR
The Spanish Civil War was a major conflict in Spain from 1936 to 1939. The war began after a declaration of opposition by a group of right-leaning generals under the leadership of José Sanjurjo against the elected government of the Second Spanish Republic, at the time under the leadership of President Manuel Azaña.  We pick up near the end of the war as rebel General Francisco Franco under the Nationalists tries to push out the Republicans.

In an attempt to simulate the state of aircraft, we have included actual aircraft used in the conflict and sub'ed others close in performance for the wide variety of aircraft used during the conflict.  For a complete list of aircraft used, please visit the website Aircraft of the Spanish Civil War.

Aircraft
I-16
Bf109E
C-202 (sub He-112)
Stuka
Storch (sub most single engine light fighters)
Ju-88 (sub various european bombers)

Vehicles
LVT's - (sub light tanks)
M-16 (sub various AAA/Anti-Troop vehicles)

Arena Settings - normals for AvA.

The real problem is anyone should feel like they can come to this forum and make a wish without being treated in a derogatory manner.  The only discussion should be centered around whether it would work, or how it would work and so on always in a respectful manner.

Honestly, an SdKfz 251 would take the place of a Panzer I.
You started this thread and it was obviously about your want and desire in spite of your use of 'we' and Google.

You could toss the Betty in there as a sub for the He-111 and limit it from formation use due to the 20mm in the tail.

I'm going to limit the Ju88 arms which should be a good balance
