Post by: Karnak on August 20, 2003, 08:34:24 PM: I think the Boston and Ki-67 could be happily lost from this setup.

Yes, the TBM-3 and SBD-5 are better than the B5N2 and D3A1, but seriously, this is going to be a fighter on fighter fest and offensive capabilities are pretty much null regardless.

Post by: Oldman731 on August 22, 2003, 07:43:54 AM: Just a question, Brady: Will the fleet hardness (or whatever the proper descriptive term may be) be reduced, so that we don't have the floating ack batteries at the end of the runway that we have observed in this setup on prior occasions?

Post by: brady on August 22, 2003, 01:51:29 PM: Their are only 3 fleats for each side oldman, a much reduced number comparted to prevoius set up's,and two of those fleats are non CV fleats, and the hardness will be at half the MA standard.

Good to see an open mind. Especially since the Ki-67 is a '44 aircraft that saw most of its production (around 700 units) built in '45.

A treat to try and catch it with a P40b.

Post by: Eagler on August 23, 2003, 01:08:11 AM: big let down after the last 3 weeks

you should at least provide in-flight movies - bases with these slow planes are way too far apart

hurry up next Friday!

Try it with a Wildcat for real entertainment.

Hey, I LIKE this setup, even with the superbombers. I was getting clobbered in the modern planes; at least I can hold my own at 1942 speeds.

Had a great time!!
Title: Friday the 22nd
Post by: Halo on August 27, 2003, 11:58:38 AM: Easy fix by players -- just agree that Boston and TBM will not be flown as long as Ki-67 is not flown. View with patient tolerance those who insist on flying the later war birds.

And if they are flown, play like they're not there. Just like little army soldiers on the rug at home ... everything is negotiable.

Meanwhile, should be some more fun excellent fighter matches.
