I'm glad you're not whining like you usually do, Storch.

BTW .... I'm grateful for all the dedicated Axis players (and players/player squadrons that switch to even numbers). Gives me an occasional chance to play the American (sometimes American volunteer for the British) hero.

Banner says "Brits have a go.."

How about Hurri2c land based
seafire off CV instead of FM2

then all RAF planes

What about RNZAF and FAA Corsairs? Just wondering.

Actually the Hurricane II makes more sense than the Typhoon, the Huri saw action in SE Asia, the Tiffie never did, and I think the Tiffie is too much plane for the N1K-2 anyways. Besides the Spit IX (Spit VIII) is there too, RAF doesnt need a Tiffie as well.

...and we would welcome ANY CV a/c for those of us with navy squads. FM2 or whatever.

No FM2 please, use the seafire. This IS supposed to be a brit setup isnt it?

Well the brits did actually have the "Martlet" IIRC this was an FM-2 but it may have been the -4. But go ahead and bring forth the whole allied inventory plus the meteor. Cod knows the poor little allied types need them. they have to constantly reaffirm their "superiority"

What setup was that where the axis had the Me163 and Me 262 jets at Okinawa? Hmmm.

...for info the Royal Navy did use the Wildcat VI (FM-2), this is a hyothetical setup, they didnt use them in the Pacific, but they were FAA a/c.

Its up to the CT staffers.

FAA a/c used in WW2 in AH:

Seafire II
F4F
FM-2
F4U-1
F4U-1D
F6F Hellcat
Hurricane I (Sea Hurricane)
Hurricane II (Sea Huricane)
TBM

Lots more variety than just Seafire.

RAF/ANZAC a/c in SE Asia:

P-40E (Warhawk)
Spitfire V
Spitfire VIII (IX subbed)
Hurricane I
Hurricane II
Mosquito VI
P-47
Boston III

No Typhoons and no Mustangs.

For info ***only***, just giving the list, so relax.

Sheesh, does it really matter? None of these planes or CVs were at the PI so this is a "what if". Give them anything (but not everything) the FAA had and lets get on with it already. I would prefer the Seafire to keep it all Brit, but in the end it doesnt really matter to me what they get.

It's an evil one-sided biased redundant never-ending make Storch cry conspiracy I tell ya and it has to end this minute!

Didja have fun in the Second Wind setup?

storch · « **Reply #26 on:** April 09, 2004, 02:16:39 PM »

why not leave it as reschke proposed it to begin with?

memnon · « **Reply #27 on:** April 09, 2004, 02:22:16 PM »

I'll fly whatever you decide to but in to the CT Reschke.

Yeah, Im kinda with storch here. I think we may need to leave out the allied stuff. It will be a change to see what happens between the Spit and George. Thats what this map is about!!

Arlo and Slash, you guys need to lighten it up a bit. Either contribute to the discussion or keep out of it, but directed personal attacks will not be viewed in a positive manner.
