If you could have one Allied A/C...

See...that's whats interesting about how the game is set-up. What if Japanese production is NOT hurting in 1945? Or 1944? Or 1946? If the Japanese player is able to hold on to areas he needs to continue to get raw materials, and his production has not been impacted by Allied advances...shouldn't the Japanese player get everything that COULD have come his way?

The only way that'd happen is if the war didn't start until then...

AVRO Lancaster. Just for the whatif and latewar scenarios.

And a version of it that carries the tallboy

Or one that carries the 22000lb Grandslam bomb. Oh yeah.

This thread is pretty simple....

If you could have one Allied Aircraft added to the game...

....What would it be?

PBJ-1J Mitchell as upgrade for the PV-1 Ventura (well, maybe a corrected PV-1 would do, and get rid of the default upgrade PV-1 - PB4Y-1, in my stock game there is simply no reason to employ the PV-1 because the PB4Y-1 is so much better...)

or

B-25H Mitchell with that nifty 75mm T13E1 gun

or

Beaufighter TF.Mk X, nice torpedo plane for the British

Sorry...didn't mean to hijack the thread.

OK. Since people feel free to talk about Japanese a.c. that weren't part of the OOB because they never made it out of X-development, I'll nominate a good Allied early war wannabe.

The YP-39 as a full-up production aircraft. This would be the one *with* the turbosupercharger.

Before that "mysteriously" disappeared...

Then either the game is totally screwed up...., or the Allied player is totally screwed.

Heh, yeah...

[Mike Scholl]

If you could have one Allied A/C that is not currently in any of the Mods or stock what would it be and why?

B-52. So I could "Arc Light" the Emperor on December 8th. Now that would be really "remembering Pearl Harbor".

A spooky would be fun. [:D] Of course I want the AC-130 version and not the AC-47 one. [8D]

[langley]

My vote would be for the B-25H if only to see the effect of the 75mm cannon on shipping.

I have a feeling it would probably be disappointing, due to the game's mechanics, but I haven't gotten around to implementing it yet...

try the HVAR, hell on subs, tested for a smallish mod for PBEM, best combined with the TBM-3E variant of the Avenger.

my vote, btw goes to the F4U-4

*crosses fingers for pic to work*

Did it work? I thought PGM's had to be manufactured separately...

it worked, at least on subs, caused much flooding and little system damage, the Okha is a special item in a special slot with its own production rate, but adding a completely new weapon seems to work (don't know about ground attack, though but i don't see why it shouldn't)

[Terminus]

Veeeeery interesting... Thanks, Distiller!
