Sounds cool at first, but I wonder when this will turn out as Early War Arena is now. Started out as a cool fad until the new wore off, and things weren't top-end enough for the masses.

Looks like i need to break out my googles and satin scarf....

Just imagine guys... the scarf around your neck blowing in the wind   :devil  while blazing away at the bad guys..


Just one question Hitech...Will we have Trenches and Barb wire on the new terrains?

No parachute to bail.. man this will be crazy   :devil

I wonder who will have the balls to de-ack a field in this paper plane...  :x

Check this little tidbit on the Camel. Makes me wonder how touchy this thing will be in AH.

To each his own I suppose.

This is my opinion: Neat and all, but I prefer WWII area. I'm sure some are overly excited for a WWI arena, and thats fine.  I still prefer WWII area and the leaps and bounds in technology that came from that area. I may try it couple times, but WWII era is why I'm here.  :joystick:

Personally, WWI, Red baron, started my love of Air combat history, when I was 5yo...
Saw a book in the school library, looked at the pics, and I was hooked...
LOL, 51 yrs ago!!!

This is going to be fun!   Thx to HT and the crew, for something NEW TO DO!!!

I've always been most attracted to the "fokker scourge" period of WWI....
Eindeckers ruled, until the DH2 and Bebe Neuport appeared to give them a
run for their money... Then came "bloody april" with the Pfalz and Albatross...
Allied pilots had a life expectancy of 72hrs... Sheesh, UGLY situation!!!

The pendulum of tech superiority swung back and forth all thru that war...
Gonna be fun!!!

I'm not sure what side I'll be flying for yet... but if this is the default skin for the Fokker DVIII



You can bet that'll be the first plane I target.
