These are from FS SDoE, courtesy of Rattler. http://www.cris.com/~rattler/fsmain.html

I sure hope we can get this kind of arena here.

Your're Dreaming Funked,

I think it's a well established fact that HTC favors late war things.  

I asked HT on gray once if he was planning a RPS. He flat said "NO".   Now I know lots of folks didn't like the RPS in brand w, but I did.  Made the best of it, because I enjoyed T&B slighty over B&Z.

AH is currently the best on-line sim out there, in spite of the limited number of planes  - it's no contest. But I see a definite bias against early war stuff and a bias for late war, high speed planes.

I am hoping that the special events that pryo has talked about will at times be limited to specific periods, like BoB, '42, etc.

I guess, like brand w, i'll make the best of most of the early planes.

Wish you luck in your dreams.

<APit V is a rather early plane and it's seeing quite some use dalta ..

Anyways funked said he wants to see these for the HA .. and why shouldn't this one be plane set dependent.. not by HTC but by the players who fly in it...

 Cod Delta.  What a freek'n whine.  So the Spit Mk V is late war?? LA5 is late war?  C202 is late war? 109F is late war? The Typhoon is late war???  
 What's your point with your complaints and whining with your recent posts?  If it's just your opinion you might want to educate ot before voicing it out loud. Otherwise I think you're just trying to be disruptive.

 p.s.  Looks awesome Funked. Will be a blast to try when they get them modelled.

I'm on "Olegs" mailing list for Sturmovik, he's developing an online sim with  the Sturm engine, that will be historical, with trains, tanks, vehicles etc.  They will be giving HTC a run for  their money  more  so than  WW2-online will  come this December.

If you want more information on this, email me privately.

Westy,

It a free country. Or it was last time I checked.

I think that if early war planes are provided, then there should be some dedicated platform or arenas to have only and only those planes available.

Like a historical arena or RPS.  HT has said "No RPS".  So I just wondered how are these planes (La5, 109F4, C202, 109 G-2, Spit V) ever going to get a chance to perform without the F4U-1Ds, the P-51s, the SpitIX, the P-38L, the 190s dominating the areans.

It a wish list.  So are you saying I can't express my wishes.

Like I said, I may not get an RPS or special events arenas that will cater only to the early plane set, but I will make the best of it.

 Of course not. I was commenting on the very whiney/squeaky tone of your post and the obvious inaccuracies in it.

Hell,

The player terrain editor is otw soon guys.
Soon you'll have custom generated terrains. Dozens of scenarios to choose from. Guam, Pearl Harbor, D-Day, Russia, fantasy, etc. Having a tank, artillery and aaa is gonna be a ton 'o fun. This is really getting cool!
