Has anyone considered putting submarines in? Have a spawn like the PT boats? Then add (maybe) a "depth charge" station at the back of the destroyers? Just a thought. :aok
:D More realistically, I would like to see the icon ranges reduced to 3k or less as they are in the scenario's. Makes the air to air engagements alittle more realistic and could lessen the chance for HO merges. I would think ACM and SA would become a bigger factor in the outcome of fights more than ever. This would force you to get in closer to your adversary and pick your fights a little more cautious. In doing this I would keep the air to ground icon ranges as they are. Just another thought. :uhoh

It wouldn't be more realistic.

:huh :confused: How do you figure? :huh Real life combat of WWII, the pilots had no idea what/who they were fighting until they almost merged. As it stands now in AH, you know what the enemy is coming at you with at 6k=6000yds=18000 ft= 3.4 miles. Are you saying that a person can tell if a con is friend or foe at 3 miles? Or even what type of A/C they are in? C'mon, are you serious? Thats not very realistic to me. But reguardless, this is a wishlist, and its what I would like to see.

Anyone ever fell off a carrier and landed on the concrete water? think about that statement.... ;)

Uhm... Subs would me fun though a bit hard to add to the game I bet. You would have to create the physics model for underwater movement, ballistics and them you would have to add a ocean floor for subs to either sink or sit. New collision would have to be coded for dropping on subs. This would add more algorithms and geometry to the game resulting in those that play on low/mid spec machines seeing a massive performance loss.

Take two minutes and run a search. They have been asked for before, discussed before, and HT even said he would like to do it some day ( in a AHcon recording someone posted I think), but there are a lot of other things he would like to do first.
