Let's start with the fact that field fuel stays up, ooohhh way to stay real! If bombers cann't knock out the fields to limit the enemies ability to attack what's the point?!
Fuel was never historically limited by destroying the fuel at the field. The point at which it was limited was always by limiting the supply of oil and, to a lesser degree, by damaging production capabilities.
I would like to see a good and functional strategic system added to AH2.

Then you modeled the fighters to the point were nothing in the game really seems to kill them other than another fighter or a direct hit from a cv's aa gun.!
Yeah, it is
soooo much less realistic to have to actually hit the aircraft you're shooting at in order to damage it. Lets go back to AH1 where near misses often counted as hits.
What? You were complaining about a lack of realism?
In WWII, fighters were, by far, the best way to destroy enemy aircraft. Bombers could not succeed unescorted.

Maps are old and worn out, if your going to trash the realism aspect in the plane modeling the least ya could have done is gotten new maps up!
The maps are updated versions of the old maps ture. I too am looking forward to new maps done using the AH2 engine. Once they get the Terrain Editor out we should see some nice new maps.
The aircraft are more realistically modeled, not less. There are some issues, but you seem to have some odd ideas about realism.

Then i hear your adding some new fighters but new bombers (B29's specifically) are not being added! Guess all the screaming for the b26 and others to be added just couldn't add up to all the vultch fest whiners.!
Where the heck did you hear this and why did you give it any credence? HTC never says what is coming until they have artwork for it, and sometimes (P-47D-30, P-47D-25 and Spitfire Mk XIV) not even then. The closest thing to a hint we've had was Pyro's "A fighter, a bomber and a tank" post in the "What four aircraft do you want to see next" thread. Note that Pyro included the word "bomber".

Personally i do not think the wait was worth it, of course all the vultch guys will reply with negative comments so once again the realism will go out of any argument that may happen.
Disgust,Dismay, and total dissatisfaction here!!!
Maybe i'll go play pong on the atari, least it stays within the boundaries it set.
That is, of course, your perogitive. There are frusterating bugs remaining. However much of your angst seems to be based on faulty data.
