Please tell me you still have plans to bring them to life.
Can we at least get to the African campaign first?

For the masses I think its a bad idea Fighter Ace was a "good" ww2 combat sim/game People begged for newer maps and eye candy on the ground IE landmarks etc

They came out with a korea room Migs sabres B-29 Vulcan With rockets ( no missiles) And ya for the first 2 months it was fun .. but it was the same idea of maps and gunning at 700mph got boring it was more ramming then fighting ....Fighter ace soon died and closed after

The sales would correspondingly drop, as people wouldn't see the need to downgrade their Mk. XXVII spitfires (with 100lb boosts! j/k here), P-51Ds, FW-190D-9s to the earlier planes.

Unfortunately, with that logic, the F-86s are a long way off

This is 1940, stop wishing my virtual life away !

Oh, and btw P51s were used in Korea. They lost many in the ground attack role.

Korea started in 1950. Only ten years to wait.

have to have pacific before Korea though . . .

CLOD < release worthy CLOD < Pacific < Korea


CLOD < release worthy CLOD < Med / barbarossa etc <Pacific < Korea


Korea won't work as well with the the navy has glitchy carriers


I hope they put helos*, MASH would be pretty fun.
