Why is the A-20 much more durable that his similarly sized german and russian counterparts? Like the Me110 is made of paper, and the Tu2 will break down if the pilot silent farts!

And the same silent fart kills the ME410 6k away...

A-20 should probably not be so much tougher than a B-24...   :noid


Oh, and Brewsters that don't have self-sealing fuel tanks and very little armor...   :noid

The Brew is a scrap feeder just like the ki43 zekes and FM2. The only way they can pose a threat to Late war planes is by arriving with lots of excess energy and jumping an un aware opponent, or by jumping into another's knife fight where a friendly LA7 has the enemy pinned down and forced into a knife fight.

A group of Brews or its like without the low ENY planes to assist them are not much of a threat.  No need to lower its ENY.

It does however, though not as bad as the yak3, seem to be able to take quite a bit of damage for a small plane with little to no armor.

The Brewster does not need its ENY to be lowered.  Those that think the Brewster is uber just don't know what they are talking about and really no nothing of the Finnish Brewster.

There is one general rule when it comes to the Brewster: If it kills you, you screwed up. Fighting in a Brewster means you are on the defensive 90% of the time. Unless the opponent is a complete noob you will have to work really hard to neutralize his E-advantage and against a good opponent you will not succeed. Anyone complaining on the Brew should fly it for a tour.

Your right I don't know about the history or the specs of the plane, but you can't deny I have a pretty good knowledge of the game and the fighters in it....and that's what I base my opinion on ENY off of....like it or not it's just my opinion.

If I can up it and land 4-5 kills pretty easily, I think it should have a lower eny....I literally upped it after a conversation about it's eny on 200 and landed 7 in a ozkansas center island furball.....I was flying a K4 prior to that and was having problems getting 2....EVERYONE would agree the K4 is pretty easy mode in the MA.

Instead of 20, I just think it should be 12-15.....you can almost always up no matter the ENY but it isn't a perk farmer.

Again just my opinion

Junky just because you're really good at flying the Brewster doesn't mean that it should have its ENY lowered.

Maybe it is you who is overpowered. I vote we lower Junky's ENY!!  :neener: :joystick:

Fly it for a tour doing and see if you still have the same opinion.
i have flown the Brewster a lot and getting a k/D ratio of >2 isnt that easy. its a lot easier in a dora or a similar plane were you always have the option to disengage and run if it gets too hot. A Brewster is a killer in a low E furball were you can pick off people with bad s/a but in all other cases you will be on the defensive most of the time.
