B+ setup for Drive on the Reich. Too many 109G10s, but that didnt really bother me. They burned nicely too. Maybe more bases for the perk rides, one or two more.

Thumbs up.

As for perks, I had no trouble getting as many 5 point rides as I wanted. No biggie.

errrrr slash, i think you graded this week eskimo said last week's map. But I give this week's plane set an F- the map is good though.          Yeah,Im a moron. Sorry:D


Last weeks set up Id give a C. The plane set was good but the fights stayed between the same 2 bases 90% of the time. I give a F- to the perk idea.

Maintained fire discipline and only used the MG/FFs majority of time firing the MG17s for "make them think" moments.

Aside from my "England Invasion" whine and Brady's failure to correct it, I give the current CT map an A+. It is historical and the Axis is kicking Allied butt.

The Bf110s rule the attack.
The Bf109s rule the BnZ

Both rule the sky. They are fast and can make a quick "turn Around" from departure, climbout cruise, dive RTB, reload and attack again.

For 1 Sortie dikwad! No I'm not in the habit of holding my fire. Nor am I in the habit of not firing everything I have on board including the kitchen sink. However in the interest of straightening out the MG/FF issue I can conserve.

ROFL. *ShruG* Ok ..ok .... "F-" beacuse the game's obviously broke or sumpin'. No need to get all uptight about it. Game's broke. 110's broke. The Hurricane and P-40 are too hard to shoot down. Was just curious. Maybe next week'll be better. I'll see you that week just like every week. ;) :aok

Vile stuff? :rofl

Oh .... and add me. I'll try to get over it. :D

In a (perhaps vain) attempt to bring this thread back on track, I give LAST WEEK'S setup a "C".  I'm not big on late-war planes, but I thought that the match worked well.  Spit 14 isn't that much better than the G10, and I saw a lot of Typhoons and 51s.  Very nice map.

For the one evening I flew it, Drive on the Reich was a fun matchup  C..C++.  The 109g6 is a surprisingly effective ride when you don't have to face spit9's.

I enjoyed the map and theme very much...The historical match up is most appealing in the CT.  Not the cyber confrontations you see in the MA, ie.,  La7 vs a Niki.  I would give it a B-.  As for the planes, I like the axis AC, typically 109, then 190 and 110 in that order.  In this scenario, I found it very challenging to get a kill, particularly on the Spirtard 14.  Unless my target was less than 300 yrds and with a small angle of deflection, either cannon or MG’s seems useless.  Snapshots are surprising when they occur and usually they happen at less than 150yrds.  Generally, if I was with a wingy or squad mates the chances seemed acceptable.  One v One, I would think twice unless at a definite tach advantage.  As for uber planes, aside from the 14, I don't feel any of them fall into that category.  The pilots on the allied side use the strength of their crates very well and they are deadly if I do not use my AC to its maximum limit.   to all.

At the begining I tough that Spitfire Mk XIV should be perked but then.... I figured out that it can be beaten well - it is Spitfire all the way.

Great Setup......

I want more Late war setups :aok
