Setup for July 14 - 20. Manchuria - August 45

Manchuria August '45

In Japan's final deaththrows, Russia moves swiftly to push
Japan back into the sea. As Japan's final fuel reserves
run dry, and with the US on her doorstep dropping horrible
bombs, Japan is feeling her death as a nation coming soon.  

But not without a fight...


Soviet Union
C-47
Boston (lease lend)
La-5FN
La-7
Yak-9 U/T

Japan
Ki-67
Ki-61
Ki-84
Nik-2

Vehicles:
M Series
JEEPS!

Franks v. LA7s

This has the makings of one of the best dissimilar-type match-ups ever, Fork, had great fights last night.  My sense is that the Frank is the underdog, but not by much.  We'll see how it looks by the end of the week!

Remember that the propellers spin different directions.

The La-5 may be one of the most underrated planes in the game.  Especially since the last FM change, it has become more stable, benefitting as much as the 109 did.  Maybe more.  Something to do with the slats on the wings maybe?  It's more stable than it was, and still has all of the positives that made it useful before.
