HTC, I'm Impressed

Wow, i have to take my hat off to you all over here at HTC...

With this latest rev (1.01) you now have 1/3 the planeset of WB and at the rate you are adding them, the gap should be bridged sooner than i thought possible

while i still find 1 or 2 things missing from the flight models, and i'm yearning for a more realistic map; overall im gettin to the point where AH is starting to look VERY attractive...

currently my squad flys brand W but we love our IJN rides and with only the Niki here, i still find the water a little cold... but if a Ki-61 and a Zeke were to arrive,id be HARD pressed to not jump onboard...

once again HTC and im definately WATCHING CLOSELY now

Bigred, how about a Ki-44?

great idea!!!, actually with HTC's penchant for adding planes NOT available in brand W and with a RPS obviously on the way..

i think 4 IJN/IJAAf planes would form a nice core planeset:

EARLYWAR: Zeke
MIDWAR: Ki-44
LATEWAR: N1K2
BUFF: Ki-67 Hiryu

with alternates as
Ki-61 (MIDWAR)
Ki-100 (REAL-LATEWAR)
H8K (BUFF/FLYING BOAT)

again HTC

Of course, if you calculate planes the WB way (G6/R6 and G6 are different), then instead of 17 you get around 28 planes, or half the planeset of brand W.  
Still, sorry to hear about the folgore.  I understand the biggest problem with the macchi is that takes a lot of man-hours to produce one.

Was wondering when I'd see you here checking out the Niki Bigred!  

Couldn't agree more, fill out the Japanse planeset & I'd be looking to join myself.
