Peitition for "Reason"
« Reply #30 on: July 09, 2002, 11:31:09 AM »
All of you who post in here should read everything i have said .. i think this is the 3rd time or 4th that early war plane sets for scenarios should be set up for download before the scenario starts like a day or 2 ... and that intresting planes should go into MA instead of old planes of newer models etcetc how many times i gotta say that before you understand .... i have nothing against old plane sets ... but they should be prepared before a scenario ... you guys do pay money btw

TimeBomb man, some people like to fly early war planes in the MA, and you cant expect HTC to add every plane in 1 big patch before a scenario!, they just cant make planes that fast, it takes time and they have to slowly add plane by plane.

AH isn't all about the MA, and the MA isn't all about latewar planes.

Why is hitech giving us P40s and planes that are inferior to non-perk planes we already have ,, nobody will use a p40 when they can use a p51


True - the P-51B and D models are both faster and the D has the same guns and P-51B has pretty much the same climbrate as the P-40C and E, but the P-40E can actually turn better than either the P-51B or P-51D and it seems to be able to take more damage than the Mustangs.  It also has one more advantage - the "John Wayne" factor!  Anyone who's seen the movie "Flying Tigers" will try the P-40C and P-40E at least once.  And I personally was on the receiving end of a spanking by a P-40E while flying a P-51D, so I know it can be done. ;)

and then Timebomb_Man said something like
i petition that they add intresting planes instead of old planes of the new models we can already use ... take this plane for explample the Ikarus IK-3 yugoslavia plane .. reply to this message if you agree with me


Until you mentioned it, I'd never heard of this Yugoslavian aircraft.  I think most of the Aces High players have never heard of it either, and I wonder if Aces High developers will be able to find enough data on the plane to make an accurate flight model.  

I think a more popular choice for the next series would be either the French Dewoitine D520 fighter, the German Ju-87 Stuka, the Japanese Ki-84 Hayate, the USA B-25B Mitchell (Doolittle's raiders), the Australian Commonwealth Boomerang, or the Brewster Buffalo in Finland colors.

So Sikboy was all, like
As I said, I have no problem with having a Yugo plane added to the set. I'm on record as wanting to see more Italian and at least one French model. I'd even like to see the Australian Boomerang modeled. -Sikboy


This outrageous!  More Italian planes?  They have two already!  Your statement is without merit and completely unreasonable! They should add the B-25B Mitchell first. We don't have nearly enough American planes.... ;)

The Yugoslavian plane would be interesting to add, but I think the French Dewoitine D520, Australian Boomerang, the Ju-87 Stuka and Brewster Buffalo would find more use in scenario play and the Ki-84 Hayate would certainly get a lot of use in the MA.

The P-40 was probably the most widely used Allied fighter of WW2. The RAF, USAAF, RAAF, Soviet, Free French all used it. Pacific, Europe, Med, Burma. Saw combat from 1941-1945.

Gee, I cant think of a reason it should be included at all .
