Er, almost 50% of the A/C in the last version were German...come again?  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

FYI: I know Pyro has a soft spot for the ME410...so you might get your wish.

IMO, we have plenty of german hardware for a while. I'd like to see more japanese, russian, etc. Especially bombers...

Ok, I am becoming quite suttle in my approaches.

Meaning got to keep up with all the american stuff being added, seeing how these 2 countries get the most might as well not have the germans snubbed on this one  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)  At any rate I would love to see more JP or russian planes.  But I do have a passion for german planes and I can never say we have enough.  Fault me for that, but I think you can understand were I am coming from.  At any rate I would like to see more medium bombers, or twin engine fighters. I don't care which country they are from, I jsut love flying them.

IL-2 is the most needed aircraft by a very large margin.

 Spitfire please. Preferably the F IXt

Bring on the Hawker Fury!

I hope there is anything but LW in this next release.

Preferably Russian and preferably armed to the teeth with air to ground weapons.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

I just hope LW will get a good jabo plane.

Was nice to get the F8, but 50kgs very rarely kills flaks (hit one directly with 4 of um today), our guns cannot kill flaks and panzers, and we have no rockets.

I love firing rockets. Would nice to have some R4M's or even panzerschrecks or panzerblitz.

US planes have guns that can kill osties and panzers. VVS has the Yak with 37mm. The N1K can sometimes take down an ostie, but the Japanese planeset needs such a plane (if there is one). But LW has no real anti armor capability beyond 500kg bombs.

So not a request for a new plane, but for more ordnance and perhaps some AP rounds.

StSanta,

What you want to be asking for is the Hs129 for the Germans and the Ki102b for the Japanese.

Must haves:

Ki-43 "Oscar"
Ki-45 "Nick"
Ki-84 "Frank"
Ki-100 "Goshiki-Sen"
Mitsubishi G4M "Betty"


Perk:

Kyushu J7W Shinden "Magnificent Lightning" (never saw combat, but could have been a serious problem for the B29s)

cc I agree in that the LW needs Anti Armor weaponry.

The benefit of adding the Me410 is that HT would have to model many new guns and ammo wich could work with the existing LW planes.

I'm not really talkin what's best.  I've always got the Scenarios in mind whenever I play these "what planes would I pick" games.  

The "Val" would round things out nicely also.

Sturm,

Very nice cast! You pulled just right on setting of the hook, but the bait was a bit too obvious.  Overall I'd give it a 9.25

You came close to a full 10 tho!  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)
