Maybe it would be more interesting if it weren't Allies vs. Luftwaffe, but rather Allies vs. Axis.

Maybe then the LW fanatics might want some Ki-84s, J2M3s, Ki-44s and G.55s.

Absolutely. Many times.

When they get organized and determined, they are very effective. Their A/C are mighty competent, and when the pro's show, yer in fer an bellybutton kickin if you assume they are pushovers.

What seemed to cost them most here was teamwork.. we were fighting a gaggle of LW/Axis planes, while we were flying as a team with good comms and excellent mutual support. That made all the diffrence in the world. All we had to do was split 'em up and cut 'em down.

First Rumble, we lost, same reason. They stayed organized, we were scattered.

It ain't the planes.. it's the pilots.
