A6M2 vs F4F

So if this is suppose to represent Zero vs F4F, re: deletion of F4U-1, then why the hell is the Ki-67 and JU-88 still there? Who cares about the Bosten, get it out too!!

Comon Hawk some of us aint no good in fighters so we resort to the next best thing building battering or even gv/ship bombing.OTOH I think the Ki67 should not be here but the Ju88 subbing for the G4M is not all bad but the Ju88 I think carries way more bombs that the G4M but the G4M had better defensive guns (at least 1 20mm in the tail).I pummeled the hell out of a37 last night in just 1 Ju88 if I had all 3 it would have been much worse.

Thanks for letting me wing with you last night (however short lived my flight may have been) :o   When you called that f4f after us, I just could not find him in any views untl tracers came down on my cockpit and BANG I died.  In retrospect, I shoud have stuck to you like glue.  My bad choice in breaking left, hehe. *S*

Hawk and Brady: How about if they perked the F4U-1 and Ki-61 and left them at back fields?  Would that work ya think?  I personally loved the two flights in the Ki-61 that I had earlier this week, and have no problems dragging one across 100 miles of ocean to get into a fight.  Might be interesting to see how carefull the pilots are when they got those long flights to ride too.

Brady: Please, sir, may I have some coal too?  My wood is all gone from the winter snows and my basement is freezing. :p

Geesy & others: Great fights last nght in CT.  Thanks all for the tips and calls, and clears.... oh my.

NP haven, the F4F just appeared outta nowhere must have been very high guess I need to check the AWACS board more often.Was good fun last night had some good fights all.

 Me and a couple of squadies were trying to capture v38 c47 driver called out a con we assumed were were looking at each other then all of a sudden I see a F4F screaming for the Tabby but was too late he got some of the troops but he paid for it very soon after.

We cant easly set perk values we have to call HTC to do it, and The F4U-1a is way to uber ganst the just the A6M2, and since I want this to be just the Wildcat aganst the Zero this week, I dont want to mix it up with the Tony and the F4U-1. Howeaver I am shure we will see some Other Slot set up's that play more to a later perioud in the war whear we can have the F4U-1.

Key.remember when I went balistic because no one seemed to want an early war map with just IJN and USN? Remeber when we always had to put up with the HUrricains? Remember when I started flying AH we were in Zeros putting up with F4Us and the disabled the N1K2? WOW have times changed..lol,.....

...anyway, I think the JU88 is fine except the the Betty was not as durable as the JU88. The Ki-67 rules at altitude, hell I thought the B-17 with "auto-gunners" was a pain in the ass.....

....and yes, I think the "Uber" rides should be perked....A LOT to prevent misuse. If the P-40E wasnt so mis-modeled, it could be perked as well!!!!!  
Actually, I think all aircraft incerted into a map to add "evenness" should be perked. Another thing I dont like is when, for example, the Spit and Hurricain are available at the same fields....same with some other set-ups.


The CT should be an arena of chalange, I think all advanced aircraft should be perked in a given map setting!!


.........I like coal, it keeps me warm at night :D

Im not a historian.  But i would think the F4u1 and Ki61  "Ki84"
would be as valid as any plane in the slot?

   They are, but I think they are shooting for an early to mid 1942 time frame.  I think:D
