Can't we have for 4 frames, 2 different time periods during two of the days of the battle? Would make thing's cool by adjusting the arena time to match it as well.

Like 2 for june 5 and june 6th

It could be like Coral Sea, Allied first 2 frames......switch sides, Axis last two frames.  The design team has indicated 2 issues......
  • Terrain is hosed...
  • Is set for a 2 Frame event: making it a *possible* 4 frames by replaying Frames 1 and 2 over but switching sides.

When it's ran it will be in one of two options.

As part of a multi-battle campaign or as a sideswitch event.

The Battle of Midway could be a great scenario. Here's a rough plan of aircraft.

For the allies there could be the SBD-5 "Dauntless," TBM-3 "Avenger"(Devestator sub), and F4F "Wildcat".
Objective: Destroy all 5 of the Japanese CVs and fend off Japanese attacks
Restrictions:Wildcats can't carry bombs, only drop tanks, and the TBM can't carry rockets or bombs.

For axis they would have the D3A "Vals," B5N2 "Kate," and the A6M2 "Zero"
Objective: Destroy all 3 of the American's CVs, attack Midway's airfield, and fend off American attacks
Restrictions:Zero's can't carry bombs, only drop tanks.

Gun Battries can be manned by both sides.

Allies: 40% of players   Axis: 60% of players

HOPE YOU CONSIDER THIS AS A FUTURE SCENARIO                            

SEE YOU IN THE SKIES :salute

The Japanese only had 4 carriers.

Would this scenario only focus on the carrier battle, or will midway island be allowed to launch aircraft? If so, other types of planes like the army's b-26 and b-17 bombers; the marine corps' SBD Dauntless, F4F wildcat and f2a-3 buffalo; and the Navy's tbf avenger could all be used as well. I know the b-17's were "E" models, so that would be a non-game plane as well as the buffaloes.

Actualy they had 5.  The Hoshu was escorting the main body force consisting of the Battleship Yamato and two others.
