With the Ki-84 and B-24J coming ....

... and the Slot map already modeled for AHII ....

.... soon there'll be no real reason not to have alot of fun with late war Pacific setups in the CT.

Let's see. Set up a few bases for the AAF. Set up a few bases for the Navy and Marines. Set up some bases dedicated to specifically the IJ Navy or Army. Put the bombers at the rear. Get 2 taskforces per side. Let the Peggies and Liberators loose to wreak havoc.

P-51D
P-38L
P-40E (wth)
F4U-1 &1D
(Chogs still aren't a neccesity but they're a possibility)
F6F-5
B-24J
B-26

Ki-84
N1K2J
Ki-41
A6m5
A6m2 (wth)
Ki-67
B5N
D3A

C-47 (Also skinned as the "Tabby")

M GVs (with some japanese skins added to the terrain)

LVTs at the fleet (again, with japanese skin variants - Japanese "Ka-Mi"?)

Balance ... immersion?

Whatcha think? :D

(I'm ready)

it will be interesting to see how the Ki84 stacks up against the ameri iron.  my guess is it will outclass the hellcat, p38 and p40 of course. and give the pony and corsair a real run for their money.  top end speed and diving will be their only advantages.  and speed differences will prolly not be too pronounced.  maybe the 38 could outclimb it? i see many more deaths than usual in my future. oh well i die alot anyway.

Properly modelled it should be untouchable but even improperly modelled it is a welcome add on

The AH2 map wont be Ackinawa anymore because the maps cant be customized, IE no extra ack. It will be a great (and useable) map without all that gratuitous ack.
