yep - some here do not want the possibility for "japanese" players... if you play the japs you are a fanboy... so everything that improve the situation is "ahistorical"... nobody said that you should be easily able to produce 1000s of ki84s... but if i manage to do so, i want to equip my groupswith it, esp. if they otherwise can only fly the nate... also the same is true for the p40-crap versus thunderbolts/mustang thing... sure, historically some groups flew them until the end, but hindsight here hindsight there, NOBODY can tell me that if i can use "better" planes (and i hope we all agree that the p51 mustang WAS better as the p40 ) cause i have lots of them in the stockpile i do ignore it and even worse, if i have only a few worser planes, my groups will NOT be updated.... sorry, that sound not really smart for me. My idea of reequiped air groups is that you only can do it at certain places (for example size10 airports) and that you will loose experience points (differ from the type... zero2 to zero 3 nil, zero 2 to shinden say 15POINTS (no percentage, so it hurts you really)) or even better, you have to DISBAND em (and you loose 90 days....) This should be true for both sides (again, the same planetyp, just another version should be upgradeable like now)... and navy = navy and army = army and also bomber=bomber and fighter/fighterbomber=fighterbomber... is it ahistorical ? yes... but the whole game is fully ahistorical from turn one... so no problem, cause we use historical things and try to do better... and this should be possible with both sides... it is true that japan will loose, but if i do better as the jap, i should have the chance to let the allied pay much more as they payed in 44/45.... and it seems to me that the fanboygroup want to avoid it... (or, for the japanese fanboys to invade frisco...) both is not smart... and take the fun out of it... but as i mentioned earlier, we have the editor and we should have enough good people to create nearly perfect scenarios without bashing the designer... "we" (i mean the people who disagree to this strict rules) can live with it and if "we" are so many that nobody will play other scenarios per pbem, maybe something will change.. so take it easy and be happy... we should not forget that this IS a great game and i can only advice to buy and to play it.. have fun
