Perhaps it has already been done, but I was thinking a reenactment of Midway might be fun. Opposing Task forces with multiple carriers and other ships would be pretty awesome.
-
might be a while norm...that one gets old fast and we run it fairly often
i think next up is a north afrika type setup...
-
It is a popular set up and has been done quite frequently.
A lot of the old maps were taken down from the server to be remade/repaired and I believe Midway was one of them.
-
actually midway hasn't been run in ages. now the map is down. all we have is big ocean, and thats all carriers.
-
personally, if we're going to run another pto setup i'd rather see a setup where we could have 38s, 51s, corsairs and b-17s against a6m5, ki-84 and betty's...say mid-late 1943 early 1944
-
while i'd like to have 38's......i'm working on a battle of the coral sea. it would be cool to run that, followed by a midway set up/........
-
midway1 will be on your server soon, but since I can't say exactly when, it must be in two weeks.

wasn't here an episode on Black Sheep Squadron where Pappy's squad was up against a squad of USAAF P-38's? I think it was loosely based on the Yamamoto kill.

mid 43. the G started to replace the p-39(p-400) at that point, and into 44.

Pretty cool picture I thought. Even if it never happened.
Artist text:
I've dubbed the image "Slice & Dice". The scene is entirely speculative and shows a what-if "1946" scenario high over Japan. Having slashed their way through the ramjet-equipped P-51D Mustang escorts, a pair of Japanese Manshu Ki-98 fighters is diving on a formation of B-35 flying wing bombers. At the time of Japanese surrender in August 1945, all three aircraft were very much in prototype status and none would ever become operational. The Ki-98 was never finished and, though extensively test-flown, neither the B-35 nor the ramjet-equipped Mustang were found suitable for operational service.
