The orders do not call for a discussion they clearly say axis ace fly's 202. Write your op and move on.

All criticism is not welcome I see. Myth busted. Is this the level of response we can expect from CMs in future when problems with setups arise?

Considering that the 202 was the most numerous Axis plane in frame 1, and that is likely to be the case in frame 2, The likelihood that a P-51 will encounter a C.202 is essentially certain.

Therefore, the performance disparity between the two planes is very important. The ability of the Allied ace to score bonus points is far greater than the Axis ace.

As my dad used to say, "Who said it had to be fair?"  From what I've seen in the FSOs over the years, one side or the other winds up fighting uphill in some fashion.

I always looked at it as most of the fun comes from doing what you can with what you've got.

Well C202 vs P-51 is way lopsided for potential points. Trying to figure this one out.  :headscratch:


There should always be room for discussion here.

When the point is still valid no need to make a new one.

This isn't about plane vs plane directly. It's about potential of points for one team being easier than for the other. That should always be as even as possible.

Point made, pressing it is counter-productive.

Please don't take this wrong.  I do not intend to "stir" this any further.

The original question (or concern / complaint) should have been emailed directly to the CM staff for clarification and not argued here in the forums.
