We don't need another Italian fighter Brady. It'd be redundant--after all, we already HAVE an Italian fighter. We don't need an SM 79 bomber. We already HAVE bombers that are just as good and/or better. For that matter, why do we need to have so many different types of fighter planes? I mean, they all do the same thing--shoot down other airplanes. Isn't it redundant to bother with adding so many?
Lighten up man, besides I dont want a SM 79 I want a Cant Z 1007:)
"Sorry, but your argument about redundancy doesn't hold water. What matters is CHOICE, and right now the C-47 is the ONLY choice for aerial supply/paratrooper drops. There are TWO heavy bombers in AH. In BETA AH had more fighters than that! "
The problem I see in modeling a JU 52 is well the time frankely, I would rater see something else made in the time it would take them to model a German transport, the C 47 is faster and that 7.9mm MG on the JU 52 is going to scare nobody:)
"The Ju-52 would DOUBLE the number of transport planes available. It's be GREAT for Allies vs Axis setups and it'd even see use in the MA (doutlessly LW-oriented squads would choose it over the C-47). Adding the B-24 (Or He-177) would increase the number of heavy bombers available by 50%; adding them both would double the heavy bomber choices available."
True it would, but J_A_B I am shure you have noticed this 99% of all this BS on the BBS is about personal oppinion, and lobbying for whatever we feal is right for what ever our reasion. I lobby for the underdogs, IF US planes were unrepresented I would lobby for them, as it is adding planes that add new dimenshions to the game, new abalities and expand the CT, and the CM corp's tools is what I am after, and adding a plane like a B 24 is not somthing I would back because it simply add's nothing we dont already have a US heavy bomber from WW 2, a lot of fighters are from diferent times in the war, and different models, they add somthing because they represent different time frames differnt set up's. Heck during Stalengrade in the CT We had NO Soviet planes from that battle the only planes that were in service that AH had modeled were the Brit ones we added. Thats why their are so many different planes added, other than the Furball MA whear realy only the late war planes can compeat truley effectively. So If you add a Cant Z 1007 you add somthing new to the game and expand the set up's we can do in the CT or for a special event, do I expect it to be used in the MA, well for torpedo sorties maybe but not much else.
Karnak, I feal the JU 88 is a better bomber than the Do 217 primarly because of it superlative handeling and dive bombing abalities, in terms of defensive firepower if we look at the models that were in exestance at the time of our A4 JU 88, they are realy very simmilar, granted the Do 217 could cary aprox, 2000 pounds more, it should be remembered that our JU 88 is missing the outer wing bomb mounts that would lessen this advantage it has, and that is it's only real advantage over the JU 88, slightly larger bomb load.
