Sheeple will vote for the latest greatest speed and guns.

Only a handfull of folks actually interested in the historical part of the game will vote for early birds.

The beau is off so I'll vote who cares for the leftovers.

you would...squeek!!!

anything but that p.o.s. jet would be better everyone but, the zoomtards are probably going to get their wish. if you voted "don't care", may as well have gone ahead and voted for the metor.

Anyways, im an Early war guy, and originally i voted for the IAR-80, but when it was bumped off i switched my vote for the meteor. i like its styling, its gun package, its a jet, and i think it would be fun.

why do people cry about the beau anyways? there seems to be a pattern on these boards.

-Everyone cried the b29 would be a gamebreaker, but when it was put in it did no such thing.

-People cried for the betty to be in the game just as much as people are for the beau. Yet when HTC finally listened to the whining and but the betty in, it rarely see's action in the MA. and has become more of a novalty perk gathering aircraft.

The beau would likely go down the same route. be popular for a week, then be hangered for the mossie.

Sure, it would be good for scenarios, but the past couple of planes (a6m3,p39,b25,p40's,Betty) have been put in for scenario reasons.

Isent it time the MA gets a new bird for the soul purpose of MA fun?  ;)

I've had a lot of "MA" fun over the years flying the A6M3, P-39, P-40, B-25, and G4M.  People who say they are just for scenarios have a pretty limited view of what can be done in the MA.

Missed the point.

They were put in with scenario's being their main focus.

(Except possably the p39/b25. which could of been put in to fill the EW planeset)

How do you know why they were put in?  Did you have a talk with HTC?

The 39 and 25 were Poll winners, I think the 25 won by less than 1% so they put in both.

Too bad fellas, I know you've campaigned hard for your aircraft and I think you deserve to have it included. You never know, perhaps HTC will include it anyway.  :salute

 :( :cry Poor Beau...

Here is an idea. new vote but put a P51H or F7F and I bet it will show just how clueless most players are about ww2 planes.
