Secondly, I have been doing FSO since the beinging and have been flying online since 95 so your comment about not having been around is a flat out lie. Your the most dishonest bunch I have ever seen. We might as well just surrender if you axis fools have your way.
I won my frame and won it big, all had fun, so its clear you all haven't a clue what your talking about. I love this event, its one of the things I look foward but if you all get your way your going to ****** ruin it.

The only person who controls the plane selections and allotments is me, vlkyrie, so I take this directly. I am the Admin CM and I made all the decisions about the plane-set and side balancing.
You referred, earlier, about how the LW had few aircraft to defend with. I am giving you the benefit of the doubt that you were referring to Northern Italy in the fall of 1944. In that aspect, you are correct.
The biggest opponent the allies had were anti-aircraft and operational losses. Fighters weren't much of an opposition.
From the AH/FSO standpoint, setting up the axis to man legions of 88 flak batteries isn't feasible with the current allotment of maps ( although, the more I think about it.. it might be 'different' to see a frame with 100 5" gun positions manning the coast and then around the industrial complex ) So, if we are going to conduct operations in our Squad Operations environment, we must balance the playing field a bit and allow the LW to have a decent chance of beating back a horde of heavies.
The goal of this series was to provide a little education to the masses and expose them to a different theatre of the strategic bombing campaign. I hope to expand this into actual marshalling yard objects and Austria/Hungary geography, Po Valley, and the likes to more accurately portray the theatre later on. ( once I get the brand of Scotch that Dux prefers )
My job as Admin CM is to provide an entertaining and balanced event. Judging from the participation and scores, I'd say this one is pretty close.
Now if I could just get everybody to check their egos at the forum login screen, we could sit back and enjoy the war stories.
Have fun in Frame 3.
