 pby/pbm

 tbd devastators

 Float planes from cruisers

 helldiver

 ship control

 lcvp, lst, etc...

 troops more realistic that accomplish more

 building airfields on islands

 b29

 half track with 75 mm

 british, japanese: vehicles, tanks armored cars...

 duece and half

 escort carriers

 be able to control a unit like a squad of men or tanks or something like that

This is some stuff I think should be add to the game:

 Gloster meteor Did not see combat. No chance.

 pby/pbm Been asked for...

 tbd devastators

 Float planes from cruisers Yes, but why?!

 helldiver

 ship control Already have it.

 lcvp, lst, etc...

 troops more realistic that accomplish more Seconded.

 building airfields on islands We have that.

 b29 IN

 half track with 75 mm Possibly....

 british, japanese: vehicles, tanks armored cars... Been asking for those for a long time now.

 duece and half If I recall, it wasn't around yet.

 escort carriers No need.

 be able to control a unit like a squad of men or tanks or something like that Go get a REAL RTS.

 destructable terrain Far too difficult to impliment.



 more ideas later as they come to me What, no He-111?

Who said that the Meteor didn't enter service?

Meteor Mk.III's were able to fight over the European mainland on jabo missions.

I meant, did not see significant combat in time to have a significant effect. Though the 262 didn't have much an effect either, it DID see VERY significant combat. The Meteor did neither. Ask most of the other members. It really doesn't belong in AHII.

This is some stuff I think should be add to the game:

 Gloster meteor

 pby/pbm

 tbd devastators<---wouldn't be used

 Float planes from cruisers<---THAT would be neat, like Rufes, PBYs, ets

 helldiver<---would be awesome but wouldn't be used

 ship control<---we have it, take command of a CV

 lcvp, lst, etc...<--wouldn't be used

 troops more realistic that accomplish more<---more realistic troops would be cool but infantry isn't the main key of the game

 building airfields on islands<---how would that work?

 b29<----*squeek* NOOOK *squeak* hopefully someday

 half track with 75 mm<---ya!

 british, japanese: vehicles, tanks armored cars...<---totally agree, I'd like to see an Achilles or something like that

 duece and half<---you mean like a poop?

 escort carriers<---task groups would be overpowered

 be able to control a unit like a squad of men or tanks or something like that<---erm?

 destructable terrain<---too hard to model (I think)



 more ideas later as they come to me


That's my opinion, all good ideas but some un-necessary

The TBD and the TBM are essentially the same aircraft, just manufactured by a different company.

You're thinking of the TBF and TBM versions of the AVENGER. The TBF was made by Grumman - the TBM was was made by the Eastern Aircraft Division of General Motors. As you said though - still basicly the same aircraft.

The Douglas TBD DEVASTATOR was a completely a different bird and was the aircraft that the Avenger replaced as the USN's main Torpedo Bomber.

This is some stuff I think should be add to the game:

 Gloster meteor    IN

 pby/pbm     maybe

 tbd devastators        2 weeks

 Float planes from cruisers          no point, they get blown out of sky/sea

 helldiver                 .

 ship control        already have it         

 lcvp, lst, etc...            lvt faster, more armor...

 troops more realistic that accomplish more    why not

 building airfields on islands              then why have stationary ones at all?

 b29                                     maybe a lot later, NEVER W/ NOOK

 half track with 75 mm             that'd be nice.....

 british, japanese: vehicles, tanks armored cars...   we have firefly (british) japan had only light ones built in small numbers, american should come first

 duece and half    what dat?

 escort carriers     nah

 be able to control a unit like a squad of men or tanks or something like that  just have a mission instead

 destructable terrain        would be nice to be able to through a hedge in a tiger but too hard to add

As far as I know for game inclusion criteria are as follows.
1.ww2 AC   =   no F86 for joo.
2.Squadron service lvls  =   no xplanes/testbeds/field mods.
3.Combat did shoot at something or was it shot at. self explanatory
The meteor fits this criteria.

Correct.  It was introduced in 1949.

Add one more.

4. It shot at an air target that could shoot back.

An Fi-103 (V-1 flying bomb) can't shoot back, so it doesn't count as an air target. The Meteor saw ONLY that and ground attack, and ONLY in the very last months of the war. Same reason we will never get the He-162 (also, the volksjager never did see widespread service, less even than the Meteor).


And do we REALLY need another uuber-ride? And one that's not even that good to begin with? The Mk.I was an abysmal jet, as far as jet's go. The Mk.III entered service within the last six moths of the war IIRC, and only saw service (and not much at that) as a ground attack jet.

Not a criteria for adding.



If you don't think shooting down a flying bomb was dangerous..I suggest you look up dangerous in a dictionary.
