It's not just the Battle of Britain either. Any early war scenario is hampered by the lack of a slow early war bomber that the fighters of the time can easily catch. The He-111 could serve as a better substitute in early war scenarios to the various Japanese, British, French, Russian and Italian bombers than the too fast Boston or Ju 88.

The HE-111 would be a great add to the planeset.  Whether or not something is competitive in the LW MA is not an issue in adding new vehicles or planes.  A lot of us fly what we want, when we want regardless if it is a total demon or a total dog.  It is the fun and variety I am after, not being able to PWN anybody that comes near me.  Enjoy the challenge of something different, and add the HE-111.

Why is it, whenever we get a new or updated  acft, people start asking for the He-111.  That thing will be totally outclassed in the LW arenas.  Mabye it's its phallic shape that entices so many to ask for it.  Thats all I can think of.  There's plenty of other german/Russian/Japanes/Italian planes the deserve to be put in before that thing.  EW/MW arenas mabye..but I'd rather have the 88.

So, here's my back...let the daggers start flyin.

Well, maybe all of us does not care about having the best most "competetive" ride all the time. Some just likes to have fun.

Agreed...
Also adding the early model B-17s would be something I'd like to see. The British flew C and D models pre-1942.

 The He111 was an important piece of German hardware throughout the war and deserves it's place here.

maybe we can have two new planes  :pray

If anything, the Ju-88 has a much more phallic shape than the He-111...

Because its the he-111. Period

Yes I agree ! The HE-111 is a staple of history and is no more pathetic than the stuka,B25, val, boston, etc. and should be represented!  Very suprised it isn't yet!

The Axis bomber set is sadly lacking the He-111 would & should be the obvious first inclusion to get the bomber set up to par for the Axis.

Yeah thats what we need another bomber to be used like it was never intended or designed to be used, like dive-bombing ground vehicles and cv's like the lancstuka's and dive bombing B-24's yeah thats what we need. until HTC neuters the heavies in order to stop the divebombing on gv's and cv's and limits them to what they were built for then we dont need another bomber.

I agree about lancstuka's but at the same time they are capable of carpet bombing GVs (just a sad individual who does so) and as for bombing CVs...most i see come in from 10k and bomb as intented.. the other lancstuka types are easy pray for a manned CV (just getting the ppl to man is the hard part..or better yet CAP over CV to stop 10k buffs AND lancstuka raids) but back to the topic, Id love the He-111. Maybe add the Zwiling  ;) but id settle for any model He-111.
