Only 40 Shoping days left till Christmass!


 This Friday I am going to rerun an old set up of mine from last summer using ASW's updated Libbya map, it is a suto 41 plane set featuring the C.202 and the P40E primarly with the following plane set to add some depth, while not compleatly accurate historicaly it does help to give a feal for the time and place and the match up's are good fun


Axis:

C.202
Me 109E-4
Me 110C-4
JU-88
JU-87
C47
The M's
Panzer IV

Allies:

P40E
Huricane MK I
Boston
C47
The M's
Panzer IV


I highly recomend the Following series BTW to anyone interested in Italian Planes:

Brady,
  I have a simple request... If it is at all possible... from one of the Fleets can we have the P-40E enabled from it... it has an historical reference to our squad... if you can't do it I will understand...

I thought those p40's were ferryed over on a carrier and only took off the carrier to a land base.

No CV's in this set up. Sry. P40's arent CV planes anyway.

 GV set remains the same, it simply playes better this way.

 109F4 would runin the balance of the set up and defeat the main pourpos of it which is to highlight the 202,P40E match up.

If the Tempest had been created at that time, it would have been in theatre.  Thus it should be enabled.

Your right Keyapaha, one of the guys that flies in the 325th has footage of the 317th taking off from the aircraft carrier.  I just thought it would be cool since this is a mto set up if we could launch them from it.    

Brady I know the P-40E is not a CV airplane... and didn't want to use the cv for more than a take off platfrom.  Heck you could have move it 1000 miles out of the way of anyone.  Thanks for considering it... I didn't think you could do it...

Storch:

   This set up as stated above is intended to feature the 202, and P40E in a set up that is intened to highlight them, nobody realy moaned to much at least not that I recall the last 3 times I ran this set up, and I did fly the piss out of it on at least two of those ocashions. If I aded the 109F and the Huricane IIC it would ruin the intent of the set up as I mentioned above.

 Adding any NON CV plane to a CV is freaking lame imo and I will never do so in any set up I am responsable for. CV did not play any signastudmuffinant part in the fighting in Libbya and their is no reasionable reasion for adding them. Particulary since this again is intened to feature the 202, and the P40E.


 Just because I dont want to pork my set and it's intent does not mean I am unreasionable.

  I hope to have my ***** unpacked and set up so I can fly at least by sometime on the weakend. Why do you miss me:)

Brady why cant you enable the CV on streams squad night, let them depart then disable it?

Honestly man... it's not that big of a deal... for some reason he thinks that we are going to use the CV as a combat roll... I had no intentions on using the ack or the guns on it.. just the carrier to launch planes from..  I take offense that you call me lame brady because I asked for that.. it was a simple question all I was looking for was yes or no... Plus it would have been the P-40E launching from it not another type...  But it doesn't really matter now.. it's fine I thought I would try something different.  No biggy.

I dident call you lame, I said imo using a non CV plane from a CV is lame ( from a historical/imershion prespective) in a set up.

Honestly my request was nothing more than to do something different... It would have been cool to launch the P-40E off of them...  I am going to bow out of this because this is becoming more than it should have...  Brady I do like this set up, probably one of my favorites, would like to have something like this set up on the tunisa set up too... early 43 would be cool...
