• There seems to be an up tick in Political commentary in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site we know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religiours commentary out of the fourms.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politicion will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment amoung members. It is a poison to the community. We apprciate compliance with the rules.

Would it not be cool to have an ability to fly Airacudas and Defiants against He 119s and 112s or other also-rans? Procurement issues are the real X-Factor in war simulations and to think that history might look way different with different decisions on the part of the Purchasing parts of the opposing air arms! Gimme a He 100 for the battle of Britain..! Or, put the turbo back on the P39 and fly it in a 1942 D-Day scenario...
 
Sure! That's the beauty of modding right? Let's add to the list:

Patton Marches to Moscow: US versus USSR over Germany as the cold war suddenly turns hot. 1946+

Churchill at Munich: Instead of appeasing Germany, WWII begins in '38. Biplane fights between Hawker Furys, Nieuport-Delage 62s, and Heinkel 51s are later punctuated by early monoplane models.

Balkan Blitz: Interwar skirmishes between the squabbling nations of the balkan peninsula.

All you really need are the airplanes. ETO and MAW already give you the maps. The rest is just a matter of setting up the campaigns and missions. No need to muse - you've just found your new hobby!
 
now that I think about it, Multiplayer could use a date specific upgrader that could match hypothetical upgrades...like He 100s with nitrous and MG151 15mm cannon against Buffalos re-engined with R-2800s and six fifties like the Wildcat. is it me, or is the late Thirties-early Forties period one that lends it self to a capable rendering system like this one .?
