I'll be there...Those JG54 and 1/2 guys are good targets. They are real vocal when they get popped too.... I like it! lol!Honestly, some incintive for destrutcion of a base is a good idea. If light bombers suprised a base and destroyed all the planes on the ground...well that base would be outta commision. Since you can reup continuously, killing FHS should have some impact.
Originally posted by storch ok then mr fun policeman let me ask you this please? did B17s et al attack front line fighter bases? That job was mostly reserved for jabos and occasionally B25/26 A20/26. keep in mind that one sortie from the boofers could shut down the arena for the night. I think the set up is correct. you did your mishun you got your pointzes and the furball continued. or was it your intent to have your fun at the expense of 90% of the players? I would agree that perhaps we should turn strat on for those that appreciate the fine art of HE destruction on an industrial scale. However if we are going to do that we need to activate wurzburg for the axis and gimme something with 30mm and lots of them too. we'll see how many sorties you fly into the sacred cartoonland with JG54 decked out as ZG-1.

Originally posted by Fencer51 Darn don't you hate it when they take photos. The early B17 runs were also against airfields. Note that this an B-17E.
Originally posted by Oldman731 Heh. I'm pretty sure that that's a photo of the strike on the FW plant at Marienburg on October 9, 1943.- oldman
The first big raid by the 8th Air Force was on a Focke Wulf plant at Marienburg. Coming back, the Germans were up in full force and we lost at least 80 ships-800 men, many of them pals.

Originally posted by KONG1 I am relieved to know that the PROPER “folks” are discussing this. I’m sure their thoughts will be more CORRECT than the INFERIOR ones expressed in this forum.
