Franco Lucchini https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franco_Lucchini The Franco Lucchini Air Asset in Desert War can enhance Counter-air and Interdiction missions during game play. On the Allies side, who do you think best represents similar capabilities? Why should he be included in the game? Best answer will have an equivalent Allies Air Asset included in the game.

Maybe look at the LRDG or SAS?

bcgames -> RE: User Input - DW Heroes Who Made a Difference (7/2/2017 2:39:10 AM)
As always Wodin...you are on the right track. But we already have those guys...and others...already covered. We need "The Best" Commonwealth Ace nominees. [image]local://upfiles/35266/151472D580994568A37EB055A1D82310.jpg[/image]

Could I suggest Australian Ace, Clive Caldwell - he was the top scoring allied pilot in the North African Theatre ?

bcgames -> RE: User Input - DW Heroes Who Made a Difference (7/4/2017 5:59:57 AM)
A great addition to the Sidi Rezegh scenario. Thanks! [image]local://upfiles/35266/FC640A54770A4B4EAEDD181261C05126.jpg[/image]

Not an acre as suh but I believe Hans Von Luck was present in the African Campaign. He is author of the superb and well known memoir Panzer Commander. Three New Zealanders mention here https://nzhistory.govt.nz/war/the-north-african-campaign who won the VC. Gerhard Homuth won Knights Cross https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerhard_Homuth

Let's narrow this research down abit. I need aces (German, Italian, Commonwealth) who shot down the equivalent of a squadron (~12-16 aircraft) DURING their time in North Africa. So far we have: Marmaduke Thomas St John Pattle (CW) Clive Robertson Caldwell (CW) Gerhard Homuth (GE) Hans-Joachim Marseille (GE) Franco Lucchini (IT) Who do you know? Point me...I'll figure out the rest. All I need is a name. Go get it. Report back.

L.C. Wade, an American flying with the RAF in the Mediterranean theater, including North Africa where he had 15 confirmed kills. http://www.historynet.com/lance-wade-world-war-ii-raf-ace-fighter-pilot.htm Canadian James "Stocky" Edwards. He had at least 17 kills although some were after the time period of the game. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Francis_Edwards

A possible Italian ace: Giulio Reiner https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=it&u=https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giulio_Reiner&prev=search

jamespcrowley -> RE: User Input - DW Heroes Who Made a Difference (7/10/2017 9:13:32 AM)
Not an air ace, admittedly, but Major-General Jock Campbell VC, a truly heroic figure who led from the front in Crusader, should certainly be included.

Got you Elmo See you in the next beta version regards Ben Wilkins

George Beurling. Canadian 'Knight of Malta'

Mannock -> RE: Desert War: Heroes Who Made a Difference (2/20/2018 9:42:37 AM)
I assume this is too late, but Gustav R�del and Werner Schr�er should really be in the game. Exemplary fighter pilots of Jagdgeschwader 27, who flew in the shadow of Marseilles.

bcgames -> RE: Desert War: Heroes Who Made a Difference (3/22/2018 4:11:34 AM)
It's never too late. That's what makes mods so great.

bcgames -> RE: Desert War: Heroes Who Made a Difference (12/19/2018 12:35:03 AM)
We can continue this next patch. Who are your nominees?
