Yep P-51B has the Merlin and that's why it has *dramatically* better performance than Allison powered Mustangs. The Mustangs that soviets had were Allison powered NA-73s (Mustang Mk.I for the Brits). We've kept it in the H2H use just for it's "similar" appearance and to have more diversity. It definately shouldn't be available in CT. We just had it in there for fun. :)

One of my long time dreams will come true if this setup hits CT. :)

I'm very pleased of this nice discussion of our becoming Finnish-Russia map!

I have done very much work with that map, but in this week I have worked only in my old Sauna bulding. I am repairing it and it is becoming like new one! Everybody knows that Sauna is very necessary relaxing place to Finnish people: Without it you cannot do anything... :D

I am hosting in H2H-arena next time on Friday 27. of september at 19.00 GMT. Wellcome everybody to: "Suur-Suomi: Finland - Russia Teams" to check it live!

And after that wellcome to my brand new SAUNA!:D :D :D

Hmmm lots of pressure for me to start working with winter textures. I'd hope I had more time for this. ;)

I look forward to a Continuation War setup in the CT.  I will, of course, fly for the Finns only.

Reading this thread reminds me of one more reason to be really, REALLY ticked off at the state of the economy.  I was planning a trip to Finland, but had to cancel it due to economic preasure.  Now I'm nearly bankrupt and haven't a clue when I'll manage to get over there.

Sigh.

Hey Mipoikel, it's not winter yet here in Finland, you have enought time!:D

But where are HTC's early WWII planes, for ex. Fokker D XXI (Finland) and "Tsaikka" (Russia)? If we some day have them, we can make with this map real WINTER WAR 1939-40!:cool:

Hello Karnak!

Can you speak and read/write Finnish? It is very necessary because of our Finnish radio channel!:D

If you can't, we can always arrange one Squad to "Volyntary Pilots" from foreign countries! We had them 1939-44 for ex. from Estonia and Sweden!:D :D

And if you are coming to Finland, you are always wellcome to visit and stay with me in Joensuu. I have big home and two Saunas: one electric and one wood heating... I promise to you good steams!:D :D :D

I didn´t get your E-Mail for the arena settings! Can you resend it kanttori?

What I´m looking for is:

- LOW/NO ICONS
- DAR tower only
- reduced lethality
- NO killshooter

Then I coud go on hosting Karjala Takaisin! H2H. Do the arena settings save automativcally? Or do I have to adjust them everytime i host?

:D julle
