Squad 1 "The HO N1K and LA7 Bastages"
Their squad mission statement reads: Do whatever you can to get as many kills as possible with no regard to strategy or the benefit of helping your country win the war. These people have NO respect for the game and the war it is supposed to be honoring.All manner of disease and tragedy I wish upon you and your families.
I feel your pain, however, these aircraft help out those who lack skills to fly real ACM aircraft. If you offer to pay for every player who consistently flies these aircraft, I sure you can control who selects what aircraft. When you win Powerball, get back to this thread and offer to pay for their acccounts with an agreement that they avoid the N1k and LA7.

Squad 2 "Spit and A6M Dweebs"
Their squad mission statement reads: Be as annoying as gnats and turn, turn, turn.
Images of the aliens fighters in independence day float through my mind. The overmodeling of these planes is astounding. The military would love to get their hands on planes that could perform like this, there would be no stopping the air superiority.
"Annoying" is defeat in wolve's clothing. These two aircraft are the easiest to defeat if you simply grab a Spit or A6M and kill them with their own medicine.

Squad 3 "The Strato-Con Alt Monkeys... AKA. the Space Shuttles"
Their squad mission statement reads: Get as high as possible then fly for hours to get 1 or 2 kills.
If there were cars that got the mpg. of a Pony in Aces High there would be no giant oil companies. I'm amazed we needed more than 50 gal. of petrol for the whole war. that would have kept the Ponys and F4U's up for 10 years it seems.
A good way to deal with this is the same as Squad 2, grab a P51D, get high, kill them at their own game. 262 also forces them to lower alts where your squaddies can kill them

Remember the fighter pilots #1 rule "Altitude is life"

Squad 4 "Bomber Group (insert name here)"
Their squad mission statement reads: Flatten anything you see.
I actually have respect for the patience it takes to fly so long. The only problem I see is did we ever have a B17 shot down in the war? If so, how?
The guns can sink a carrier at 5000 yds. Enough said here.
Please provide footage of the guns sinking a CV at 5000 yards and I will pay for your account for one year.

Squad 5 "The Real Pilots"
Their squad mission statement reads: Do your best to help your country and fellow man.
These pilots fly with each other and actually try to win the war. They give respect where it is due and try to honor the pilots who actually flew in WW2. They don't believe there is such a thing as stealing a kill or shooting at a chute. There is true strategy involved with what they do. Salute to any and all who fit into this category.
Personally, some days I have time to "help win the war"..other times I have limited flight time, and helping to 'win the war' doesn't rank as high as "enjoy what little time I have online". With such a variety of weapons at our hands, how could one not sit down and have a fun Tank vs Tank battle? Again, start paying for your countrymens accounts and you'll have your participation.

Actually, I fall into all 5 catagories, depends what mood I'm in.
