Neither does the b-26, b-17, ju-88, me262, ar234, tbm, c47, lanc, or the mossie.  What is that?  Like half the planes?

Or the Hellcat....

And if you are saying "more than two" the only planes that do have more than two variants are the Jug, the 109, the 190, and.... well that's it... I can't think of any more.

Besides, a Perk P-47-N would be WAY cooler than a lame-O early war 38 variant. :)

But Bug doens't count those...

The 110 G2 might very well have been the surprise plane, however, maybe we have one more surprise plane, it's a possibility ;)

Post by: Wutz on March 12, 2002, 10:35:55 AM
I too have a good feling abt the P40E (It could offcourse be the british version Kittyhawk for use in Med.Scenarios) But I have a strong feling (3 Germ Planes 2 UK Planes and 1 Jap Plane so fare) But if we add 1 more UK plane it is 3 Ger 3 uk 1 jap, and that is the number of 331 sq R.A.F Norwegians of the North weald wing. Hmmmm I realy must take my medication now.

Actually, Pyro joked 2 years ago about the 64 plane limit and someone just punted the old thread to the top.

Post by: WhiteHawk on March 12, 2002, 12:38:21 PM
Although these new 1.09planes are cool and a challenge to fly,
its kind of depressing to know that if u fly  any of em, a La7
or a niki or a spit9 will completely outclass any of em.  
  Maybe a more radical perk system is needed.

AH needs a perked p47-N!!


Thats what im hoping for, but im content  with a p40 as long as it isnt another silly british paint job.

To be honest it doesnt really matter i'll still be flying the same bird i am now :)

P-38K was a prototype that never saw any action, nor was ever deployed to any combat areas.  It shouldn't be in Aces High, the P-38N however...

More specifically the Ju-87 G-1 with the 37mm Flak 18 guns.  Would be fun to kill gv's with one round.

Precisely the reason why we have the CT arena and the ENY values that rewards planes of less lethality/manueverablity overall (ok ok, it needs editing... but that is another issue)

It would be interesting to fly the Bf109E as you want to select when you fire your sacred 20mm shells.  For the rest of the time you would be shooting peanuts :D

Maybe, just maybe, the new surprise plane isn't a plane at all.  I think it is going to be a new GV, ie the Tiger or something.

Just my wishes anyway.

I heard a rumor that a new GV is coming only in 1.11 or is this rumor unfounded ?
