Battle Of Britain

[BMathis]

I would blance the superior planes with superior numbers on the inferior side

I believe the scenario designers take this into account each and every time... Rangoon is a good example, as well as DGS. Who would fly in a scenario you know you're destined to lose? - except for me - I flew the Ju88 in Rangoon

Oh hush, we saved your butts in Rangoon.

...Well most of the time.

The 110C is BoB accurate, it's just the best 110 that the Luftwaffe had at that time.  I would have no problem with a regular 110C-4 for scenario use, but you wouldn't notice much difference.

As I recall, less than 30 Bf110C-4Bs were built.  It is not correct and it is not representative.

[Hajo]

If I'm not mistaken....and I may well be.......aren't strat targets more important then fighter to fighter kills? (in BOB)
As in all Scenarios each side is given the tools to win.

It's how the tools are used to complete their objectives that wins the scenario.

In that case there should be no problem with having a Spit II for the BoB?
The Spit II is BoB accurate, its just the best Spit that the RAF had at that time.

Sarcasm ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Hehe, all of this bitterness and resentment directed at me for pointing out a fact.

Correct here means "correct for our scenario."  I agree it's not representative of the typical 110C-4 in service at the time.  However, neither term is synonymous with "BoB accurate," and I can't help the fact that the 110C-4/B flew when it did.

Apparently the Spit 1B had Hispanos so lets have that if it was available.

Sauce for the goose and all that.

[Anaxogoras]

The Hispano was a gas powered autocannon that initially had jamming problems in the colder climate of northern Europe.  Those problems were not teethed out until the Spitfire Mk V made its appearance, and even then a 4x20mm armament was not widely adopted out of fear of malfunction.

Ill take it anyway

Yeah B of B was in August/Septrember and its warm then even in England. 

[Anaxogoras]

Not at 25k ft.

[Yarbles]

Not at 25k ft.

25k !!!!! I dont fly rook.

[Anaxogoras]

No, but you're flying allied in the BoB scenario, right?  Therefore you're gonna reach 25k every frame, if not higher.  Remember that typical arena altitudes are less than half of what was normal in the ETO.
