actually it would serve well, along with a hand full of early war bi-planes in the early war arena...if the time line was shifted to 1937-1940 of course.

Possibly added, however it would be so far down in my list I would rather have Ki-100, Ki-45 or Ki-102, Ki-44, Ki-43 before the Ki-27.
At least in the LWA the Ki-100 and Ki-102 would have a chance.

Ki-27 had a much larger impact on the war, and would be great in special events.

True the Ki-27 had a bigger impact on pre/early war, but take into account in play ability in Aces High also, think of how many Ki27s would be flown per tour vs a Ki-100, I'm looking at the total flights for early war rides and its safe to say the Ki-27 after 1 tour would be a hanger queen for good.

Honestly, the same amount.
I expect both to be hangar queens.

How would a Ki-100 be a hanger queen? Given the sorties flown in a Ki-84 and N1k-2 I would believe the Ki-100 being superior to both aircraft would actually get around the same amount of sorties if not somewhere in the middle.

Ki-84s and Nikis are not flown that much, I see two or three a day. Gives that both Ki-84 and Niki are faster than Ki-100 and have better guns I think anyone who would want to take an aircraft of that type would go with either a Ki-84 or a Niki.
