No comments on the map, just on your last paragraph and explanation.

SHARP to you sir on your promotion and the historical and personal meanings that it has for you-congratulations!

Congrats Major Jarbo, you putz! (Wab ain't around and someone had to say it!) :) Sounds like a great match up. You gonna include lots o' San Miguel beer and . . err. . . um. . . friendly natives?  Whether or not, I'll spend some time in there this week.

How very interesting....


N1K2 has 132 Kills of F6F-5
F6F-5 has 98 Kills of N1K2


N1K2 has 21 Kills of F4U-1
F4U-1 has 13 Kills of N1K2


N1K2 has 23 Kills of FM2
FM2 has 13 Kills of N1K2



I think we shouldnt have these setups unless the ki-84 is released!





 Its not fair on the allies. ;)

I dont understand your post jazz, but I have noticed even numbers, which is nice.  In case you are confused, I am a f4u fanboy, and I was making a little fun on the guys that think the speed problem between the f6f f4u against the niki makes it a useless plane.

Someone brought it to my attention the "Torpedo" capability was too limited, and in reevaluating setup I am adding TBM-SBD and D3A-B5N to CVs only.  I will update my first post to reflect this.

Good setup and I have became very familiar in last weeks with my Zero!;)

Only minus is that map is toooo big to CT, but it's still nice looking!

Thx!:)
