Title: Set up for Aug 12th 2005
Post by: Slash27 on August 12, 2005, 08:08:31 PM

Due to a last minute schedule conflict Im taking this weeks set up. The set will be posted in the morning when I get off shift so guys will get an extra day of the late war speed demons on the Rhine.

 Proposed set up will be:

RAF/RN

Typhoon
Mosquito
Spit IX
 
CV based Seafire II, TBM-3

IJA/IJN

Ki-61
Ki-84
N1KJ-2

CV based A6M5 , D3A, B5N

Map will be the slot.

Not sure if Ill enable base capture and Im mulling over adding the Ki-67 and b-24J with formations off.

Gvs will be the Ms only for both sides with LVTS if needed from the CVs.

Input welcome before I post it in the morning.

I'm no expert mind you... but ... typh and spit9 vs n1k2 and ki61? The Ki84 and spit9 is a good match, but those other IJN planes are going to get CREAMED big time!

Looks like a pretty even setup to me.

FYI Storch, Ki84 pwns everything the allies have.

 So the N1K cant hold it own against the Spit 9 anymore? Its seems to do just fine in the MA against whatever you throw at it .

Anyone with a clue knows this.

Yup, KI84 will make destroy spit5. If anything, the whines should be about adding a spit5 to compete with it or remove the KI from the plane set:p

In one of my Mosquito books it mentions a Mosquito Mk VI being shot down by a Ki-43.  It doesn't mention the details of the fight, simply that the Mosquito was shot down.


Personally I have a lot of trouble with the Typhoon when  am in a Ki-84.  Very nasty bird.  The rest, not so much.

How long does a CT setup last? 2 weeks average? I'd like to try this out but I'm on a limited PC right now til my PC case arrives on Monday and I can assemble the new parts into a machine capable or running AH.

This setup will be running till next Friday.  They usually go one week unless something happens and they have to leave the old setup in place.

The Tiffie's weakest traits are the Ki84's strongest, which is roll rate and climb/zoom. The Tiffie is poor in roll rate, but it is horrible in the verticle unles it is very fast to begin with. Use roll rate in the Ki84 to make the Tiffie miss any shots, all the while climbing and evening your E states, then once in reach, dispatch said tiffie. :)

Only time I've gotten a chance to fly this setup over the weekend, I had ONE chance at a fight, and had to chase him across the entire map at nearly 400mph to even get that chance. That was after climbing to 20k.  Then 1/2 sector out I got phone call from work, by the time I came back to the computer I was off the map and running out of gas.
