Ju-52
« on: December 22, 2009, 10:51:42 AM »
I know this has been mentioned alot but i wanted to get a video about it just for the heck of it, But i really think it would be nice to have then put in the game as they would get people away from the boring old c-47,, at this point i would rather die in a ju-52 then a c-47. lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5a8eHyBnXOQSorry but this was the only video that wasn't in German or Spanish.

I doubt it'd get people away from the Goonie. It was slower. You'll bring up the fact that it was armored. Yeah, with a few 30 or 50 cals, it wasn't a B17.

I vote for the Bristol Bombay, with perhaps a Handley Page Harrow on the side.

If you want to dump 70mph off your top speed for a 13mm gun and two 7.92mm guns be my guest, but I bet the 70mph will be a better defense against an La-7 or Spitfire Mk XVI.

If you want something NEW, it may be better to ask for something that will see some use, or have a value in scenarios etc. There is already a thread about the C-46. A goon on steroids. Double troops perhaps. Some use for bomber perks....

70mph more significantly reduces the travel time, and thus the time you are exposed to being intercepted and shot down.  If a C-47 or Ju52 is intercepted it has a very slim chance of surviving, so minimizing the time you are exposed to interception is your single best defense.

That's exactly the same with the M3 vs SdKfz 251. The SdKfz is much tougher and it is harder to kill, but the M3's speed is still a significant advantage. Hence, you rarely see any SdK's carry troops.

I think the main reason for that is simply that most people don't know that the SdKfz is much tougher to kill than the M3, so they only see the speed difference and thus favor the M3.
