Also I think this game seriously underestimates difficulties of maintaining planes, for a both sides.



100% agree.

i have more than 250 aviation support in every front line base i have, which leads to the fact that i can maintain easily in combat strenght even low service rating fighters...

I play the game to be more attractive to some women.

Well if she looks at the map and sees you have not captured Singapore and its already march.......

Another thread has spontaneously informed me that this game is irretrievably borked and should absolutely not be played.

I think we need to learn to coexist. Thiese type of arguments rear their heads every few months. Keep in mind there are a lot of AFB who want to play Scen 2 also. The reason for that is that the game has a tendency to grind down once you get into '44 and '45. For many, the best part of the game is from mid '42 until the end of '43 when both sides are near parity. Scen 2 does allow for the "interesting" part of the game to be played longer. The only problem I see is that JFB take the extra capabilities in Scen and use them to "take over the world".

There are so many side discussions that could be made here. I guess my feeling is that both camps, if you would call them that, have a place in our larger commmunity. Its is somewhat similar to the old theology debate between Calvinists and Weslyans. Those two sides will never reconcile but in end, everybody gets to Heaven. That is not meant to stir a new religious debate only to point out you can debate some things for centuries and not get resolution



Here is wisdom. This has been an interesting and thought provoking thread, and I think vettim89 has put what many of us think very well. I just love the game for its immersion factors in its myriad of details, strategy opportunities, excitement and above all FUN.

And to Roger:- [rant on]You are not the only one who is extremely irritated by a proposed high speed rail line costing millions of pounds ( of taxpayers money ), to move rich people about and saving them 20 minutes on their journey time.
( poor, poor lambs, as if life was'nt hard enough for them already ).[/rant off ]
