Which next campaign development of these 2 would you prefer

So I'm ready to start another historical campaign and have two in mind. I'd like to see if you guys have a preference of one over the other.

The first is for a WWI campaign Eddie Rickenbacker "Fighting the Flying Circus" flying the Nieuport 28 and the Spad XIII against the wily Hun's fighters, reconn, balloons and trench strafing during the last 6 months of the war.

The second is a WWII campaign for VMF 323 Death Rattlers over Okinawa flying the F4U1-D against the IJAAF and IJNAF fighters, bombers and kamikazes as well as ground support for the Marines fighting to take the island.

Looking forward to your responses guys.
 
There is so incredibly little WW1 to get, against tons of Pacific campaigns, so my vote is for WW1.

Kurt,

I would have to vote for the Great War option as well. :santahat:
 
Hi Kurt,

Your Rickenbacker campaign suits me. I'm in the middle of a WWI 10 country UIRES screen set with new settings screens. This will make my earlier set for the RNAS and GNAS redundant ( no more plain backgrounds!)

What airfields are you using if you do this?
 
Ravenna,

I'd be making new airfields for the Rickenbacker campaign. At least these:

Villeneuve-les-Vertus Aerodrome, France
Epiez Aerodrome, France
Croix de Metz Aerodrome, Toul, France
Touquin Aerodrome, France
Saints Aerodrome, France(advance airfield at Coincy).
Rembercourt Aerodrome, France

Possibly also

Thiaucourt Aerodrome, France
Tichemont Aerodrome, France
Mars-la-Tour Aerodrome, France
Giraumont Aerodrome, France
 
Definately NOT ww1, It's fighting in slow motion.

Killer Svend,
Set up the right way that's not necessarily true. Slower doesn't necessarily mean very slow. The slower speeds of Great War aircraft present particular problems for CS2 but having experimented with them in historically based scenarios I can say that the sim presents interesting possibilities.
