you need lederhosen, that's what the rest of the free world will be wearing, when the Axis Crushes the Allies. lots of shot down Allied planes.

we like our sheep and bratwurst hot, and the beer cool, but not cold!

Toss up between 190 and 109  :x :headscratch: :neener:

Comes down to flying a fighter (the 109) vs. attack role (the 190), eh?

Here's how to decide -- blurt it out to yourself and go with whichever you say.  :aok  That let's your subconscious decide.

You are correct, there won't be any Axis parts simply because you guys aren't able to hit us.  The only Axis metal raining down will be spent cartridges, and there will be so many of those they value will plummet.
