Yeah thats what we need another bomber to be used like it was never intended or designed to be used, like dive-bombing ground vehicles and cv's like the lancstuka's and dive bombing B-24's yeah thats what we need. until HTC neuters the heavies in order to stop the divebombing on gv's and cv's and limits them to what they were built for then we dont need another bomber.

So will more people fly bombers just because we get the 111 in the game? NO

Will the "problem" with divebombing with bombers get any worse with the 111 in the game? NO

Will you be any more or less able to do what you have always done in the past with the 111 in the game? NO

Will alot of people be happy to finally get the 111? YES


Now what is your problem with getting the HE111? Just because you dont like it does not mean we dont need it.

I still haven't seen a "good" reason why we need yet another bomber.

In my opinion. I still haven't seen a "good" reason why we need yet another bomber.

Anax he is entitled to his opinion. But judging by this thread his opinion is in the vast minority. I'll also never understand why a person wouldn't want any ac that flew in the numbers that the 111 did added to the game.

It was a sincere question.  Was he hinting at something else?

If none of that former posts made sense to you, nothing will.  If the 111 ever arrives, feel free to ignore it, it is your $15

Um lets see, we need the 111 for historic battle reasons, its a fun bomber to fly, its the he-111, and just because you dont want it doesn't mean we can't have it. Just like alot of people hate the La-7, we should get rid of that too huh?

anymore reasons?

Some are thinking about game play in the MA only.

Some of us are thinking of Scenarios and special events where aircraft of similar time period are matched.

He-111 is definately needed to fill a planeset during specific years of WWII.

Hajo hit the nail on the head. There is a LOT more to Aces High then just the MA. FSO has had over 500 players show up on a Friday night. For those that enjoy events we look for aircraft that will fill gaps and add to events. MA is just the practice ground for special events.

epic thats the 1st good reason I have seen.  I am not trying to dictate what planes we do or don't get.  My main point was that every time someone asks for a new plane, the thread almost always turns into the we want the 111 thread.  Surely there is some other acft besides the 111 that folks want (besides the B-29 w/ nuke) that hardly ever gets asked for.  How about some lesser represented countries, wasn't there a 3 engined Italian bomber that was pretty good?  How about a Ju-52 for a troop hauler or mabye the Brewster Buffalo.

well thats just my 2 cents............$14.98 to go.

Ah, we keep hijacking over the 111 because none of the requests for new aircraft are justified in comparison.  It's equivalent to leaving out the B-24 or <insert ubiquitous American bomber here>.

Because there is one german bomber, and 6-7 american bombers?

You guys are missing the point.

The original post was protesting something that never happened.

WOW! I LOVE reality!

Do17 , He111 , devonite , buffalo's , all are a part of a great scenario making.

In warbirds we currently have He111's AND do17's , very nice additions to our scenarios.
