So you don't want tank guns to be able to down planes.

Simple question: What exactly should be changed? HOW should HTC prevent that?
I dont think tanks should be able to bring down planes and/or Buffs no less with there main gun.

change the coad from tank hitting plane in air to tank not hitting plane in air? Or tank no hitting air objects. some thing to that effect.

With every thing HT knows how to do ..I'm sure it would not be hard.
Okay..Add 2 Country's at once, Australia and France next plane update Add ...CAC Boomerang and the Dewoitine D.520

Historical eh?  Which part of Europe are we fighting in in the MA and for which countries?  I'm fairly certain there weren't chess piece countries in world war 2 fighting on maps that Fester made.  Oh and I'm also pretty sure that countries couldn't fly all of their enemy's aircraft...

Your level of fail is increasing exponentially with every subsequent post you do realize...
actually your the 1 failing show me where a 262 ever flew the way you do ever.

So you you would bend physics to get the desired result? So that any plane can simply fly down a gun barrel, because there is no danger involved, as "tank rounds do not hurt planes" ?

Would this make the game more relaistic... or less? ;)

You can say that about almost all action in the MA's

Different combat environments breed different tactics. We can try again and again, we have unlimited lives, we have unlimited resources.
I'm killing tanks in my Hurri IID in a way completely different from "real" WW2 tactics... because I had the opportunity to practice it again and again, hundreds of times, because I did not really die. I can "afford" to continue attacking tanks that way, because dying every 6th sortie is not deterring me.

Same applies to tank/plane interaction. IN "real" ww2, planes rarely did get THAT close & low  to GVs like we do. Why do you think in WW2 the Ostwind was to replace the Wirbelwind whereas the WW is much more effective in AH? Because in AH the planes get MUCH closer to the GV's, and are much more careless dancing around heavy flack vehicles. Hence the increased range of the OW is less of an asset than the higher rof of the WW in Aces High.

What proof? You need now proof that a several pound cannon round would hurt a plane if hitting it?

Your being an idiot megalodon. We don't need to prove that it happened in WWII because a shell would detonate if hit an aircraft. This isn't a matter of historical usage or service because it could have happend from pure dumb luck.


Here is some stuff you need to accept:

For this to have a snowball's chance in hell of happening, you need to prove why it shouldn't happen, because it is physicly possible
no change is likely to happen, regardless of how you try to look at this argument.
