Title: New strats plus ME163
Post by: USCH on December 02, 2009, 06:09:54 PM
currently we have the 163 available at only one field by HQ... do they have plans of allowing it by the new strat towns?

I think that would be extreme over-kill...

On small maps, the single strat area is in 163 range.

I had asked HITECH one time when he was on line if they would add additional 163 bases on the large maps & the answer was very unlikely. So I would say no at my best guess.

My guess is the best guess as guessing is what I guess I am best at I guess. So my guess would be a guess that you might guess is the guess with the best guess.


.... my guess is no

Intercept the bombers the old fashioned way...  Personally, I like the 109G14 for the job, but that's just me...

:lol I guess that we guess that your guess at guessing such guesses is a good guess as guesses go.

+ 1,000,000

If I see a 163 in the area, I go somewhere else.

This would kill the whole concept, and I would not take my bomb group just to get slaughtered exclusively by rocket ships. One may as well make this new strat indestructable, then.

The Me163 Komet saw very limited service in WW2. Confining its use to one airfield near HQ is fair enough, any more is ridiculous.

I think the new strat system is going to allow everyone that wants to fly 163's more.. Like people have already said, any more than one field is way too much

Looks like in LWBlue the small map has the 163 base close enough to protect the strat.

Three times I flew to that area, all three I was met by a Me-163.....

There's one near the Baltic map in Blue. 

Kinda funny--their not coming in at 15K-18K like they used to...it's 35k and 37K now.  Our squad found a set of Lancs at 37K last night.  None of the bombers landed.

Sure, when we bombed them there were 262's and 163's but our guys landed except one. 

With bombers now getting on-screen credit for their landing damage more and more bombers will make the attempt.  My guees is more and more pilots will also lose big perkies when their 262's go down in flames.
