An appeal to *all servers*

After 1941-1942 increased power to weight ratios and speeds changed the way aircraft interact with the air and dogfights develop. More importantly, the widespread use of aircraft cannons and the replacement of earlier cannons with high-velocity, high rate-of-fire ones lead to much more abrupt kills.

I enjoy combat in which complex energy management and maneuvers matter - not just who can dive on a target and get enough bullets over it to indiscriminately blow it to pieces. I yearn for combat in which it take multiple runs to shoot down an enemy aircraft, and in which a pilot knows they are being beaten well before they are shot down - combat in which one can gauge and study their opponent.

So my question: Is it possible that any dedicated server could split their maps into two three year sets as an experiment?

1939-1941-1942

1943-1944-1945

I think that, if tried, this may be a popular way of splitting up environments.

Thank you,
