wasn't there one of the versions where someone in HTC (Pyro prolly) mentionned something about this?  They'd run into this already and had fixed the limit up to something like 1024..

What we said was, there wasn't a limit.
Durring the life of devloping WB we had a 16,32,48,and a 64  plane limit , soon as we needed more we just increased the limit.

Works a lot like the limit on the amout of goverment debt.

There's no limit to how many planes we can do.  There was something of an urban legend regarding that in WB.

I hope not.  The roving bands of horde squads we have now are bad enough.

There is nothing wrong with a large squad and I hope the limit is lifted from 32.

The roving part I do not like, I think squads as a whole should be restricted to just one country. You want to switch sides then do it as a single player, but once you are married you stay put. :aok

Yes there is. Think if you can do max 1 plane / 2 months. In a year you can do 6 planes. I assume you are over 30 years old today? Estimated average age for you may be 85 years? So you have only 55 years time to left make planes.

In 55 years you can do 330 planes! If there is 3 people making planes, MAX number will be 990 planes!

:D :D :D ;)

I had thought the 32 limit in squades was a historical thing since in WW II each squade had 32 pilots in fighter squadrens.
