Swordfish
« on: March 05, 2010, 04:02:18 PM »
Have you noticed that there are no biplanes in aces high 2 i wish there were like the gladiator was obsolete but very important, but it would be awesome if we had the Swordfish because it was a very important in many carrier attacks.  I don't know why aces high doesn't have biplanes but it would be awesome to have at least the Swordfish.

Biplanes you say?  Like, maybe, a WWI arena? :)

I would love a Swordfish, Gladiator, I-153, and Avia B.534 too. Why we don't have any WWII era biplanes, I don't know. We will be getting WWI biplanes eventually though.

I've never flown one, yet I'm fairly certain biplanes will out-turn spitfires.

More planes to fill out the early war set would be welcome.  Cr.42 vs. Gloster Gladiator, anyone?

I have not double checked the stats for the Swordfish, but woulnt the B5N be a viable substitute?   :)
