I'm all for it, always wanted a snow map just for a change of pace.  Can you host it somewhere for download so we can see it?

A snow map! :aok  Winter skins! :aok That would be great.  Any added maps would be great, all the old ones are really getting tiresome, over and over again.  We really need some new blood.

I think the idea of more skins is better than added more planes all the time.  There is a good selection to choose from.  Though there will always be some which would be nice. (Sorry off subject a bit).

Question about a snow/winter map.  Would the GV's leave tracks to be seen?  Would the planes have a slower start up?  That was a problem in the war to begin with, the cold weather.  I like the idea, but some remodeling would need to be in place if it is to be anything other than "eye candy".

Hmm, if this is gonna happen, I would really like for the login screen to tell you which map is up in each arena. We've had snow maps before. Mega eye strain.

Are you sure skuzzy did not mean skins for things such as trees, buildings, roads, etc. There simply are not snow skins for every plane in AH. Maybe you should consider having a section of the terrain snow-like. Maybe the center. An entire snow map with ALL planes skinned would be a VERY large download.

Really, I think the only planes which had "snow skins" were the German and Russian.  I know the U.S. didn't at that time and don't believe the British did either.  The Japanese may have, but doubt it.

Plane skins have nothing to do with any terrain we would accept or reject.

It would be almost impossible to get a snow terrain done to the level it could be accepted as an MA terrain.  NB hit the nail on the head.
