Title: Early war greece planeset
Post by: croduh on July 05, 2007, 05:46:36 AM

So i made a map consisting of few islands in Greek Sea.
I run it in h2h, and want to make a historical planeset for early war Greece theater.
Which planes should i choose?I am only sure about 109e, hmk1 (?), c202.

Early war Greece?

Gloster Glaidators, and C.200s, most likely.

Da Stuka.  How early are we talking about here?  Italian or German attack?  Are you including Crete?

Will I believe the Greek Air Force at the time had a good amount of PZL-24s. We really don't have a plane like that in AH, but maybe the closet substitution for that plane might be the D3A? But then again I think the PZL had 6 .303, but not sure. Really our EW plane set is crap IMO. your best bet maybe is

Allies
Hurrican MK1
D3A as PZL

Axis
109E-4
Ju-87D
110
C202 (maybe)

Too early for the 109E-4... If anything they might have had 109Ds or maybe some E-1s (4x 7mm armament), and I don't think they'd have the 110C-4 yet either. I'd have to brush up on it to be sure, but that's my guess.

EDIT: C202 is a 1941 airframe. It probably outclasses everything else on that list.

They had them at that time:
The Italian attack on Greece started in Octiober 1940, the German in April 41, after the Battle of Britain.

Our early war plane set sucks.We have too many late war rides and too little early war.
And yes c202 is the fastest plane in my plane set.Oh the irony...

Don't know how early your talking about but there's a Greek Spit Vb skin in-game.

mmm more early war planes i agree cause im the kind that likes to furball 51s la7 and such in 41-42 planes... other then that i believe your plane list is correct and the best you can get with what we have.

That PLZ24 has high mounted wings, anything on AH got those?

oh yeah, some Greek pilots who escaped after Greek was overrun served in the RAF and were later equipped with Spitfires, so theres and explanation for the Greek spit v skin, though i may be wrong.
