Now that the A6M series is being updated
« on: February 03, 2011, 09:06:07 AM »
Please give us the A6M3 Model 32 "HAMP". It is needed in SEA setups as a stop gap between the A6M2 of 1941 and the A6M5 of late 1943. It was a key fighter in the Solomons battles. Should be fairly straight forward to add it.

As I said in the other thread, although the Model 22 was more numerically representative and (arguably) a better performer, the Model 32 is:

1) Visually distinct from the Model 21 and Model 52

2) More distinct in its flight characteristics

3) Of arguably greater historical significance, as this was the version of the A6M3 that was mainly encountered by the Cactus Airforce

Therefore, if HTC gives us only ONE A6M3, I vote for the Model 32.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

He's passionate.  That's not grounds for PNG.

Having not read the post, and if I don't get moderated, I'm sure it was along the lines of, "Look up three posts, you avocado, same thing."

PNGing is usually a result of bad mouthing the company, keeping your own house clean, or ignoring repeated warnings to stop doing what you are doing, repeatedly.

The Krusty bashing seems to get out of hand on occasion because all the "cool" people do it and others who want to be "cool" emulate them.

Quite so... Which is odd that my post was moderated but not the original...

And yes these newbie tools that jump on the "insult Krusty" bandwagon without having a clue about me are trying, at times.

I meant that he's gotten into quite a few scraps, and the odds of a foot-in-mouth moment would seem pretty high!  Krusty, you've got great opinions, just work on the delivery a bit.  :lol (I've got the same problem)
