Okay Gentlemen,
I have received side preferences from every squad but the following:
325th Checkertails VFG
Arabian Knights
The DAMNED
Isle of Misfit Toys
Nightmares VMF-101
Raw Prawns
Fighting 31
~U.S.M.C~/ 71 Squadron
~~~THE UNFORGIVEN
31st Figher Group
Jokers Jokers
Fighters Inc.
Sky Knights
367th Dynanite Gang
Next some insight into how I assigned squads. First off remember this you indicated a preference it doesn’t guarantee you a side (otherwise it would be like 40 allies squads versus 3 Axis squads), part of flying FSO is knowing that you will have to fly for the side you don’t prefer at times.
Without that in mind any squad who requested Axis got them (613th Pariah, II/JG11 Reichsverte, JV44 Butcher Birds Ex.III./JG44 Night Hawks).
Then any squad who has flown 2 or 3 FSOs in a row for one side automatically got the other side (364th C-Hawks~, Clowns of Death, VMF-251 Buccaneers, ~U.S.M.C~/ 71 Squadron, 31st Fighter Group, Army of Muppets, Jokers Joker).
Then after that I placed the other squads on sides.
Usually the Allies have a better turnout than the Axis (since most people want to fly allies) so the squads are split 48% to the allies and 52% to the Japanese.
Rest assure the frame 1 turnout numbers will be watch and if things get out of whacked numbers will be adjusted by switching squad(s) from one side to the other if numbers really go screwy for one side (low or high).
With that said here are the side assignements.
