saw this screen shot on the BoS site and noticed the black diamond on the tail of the ac has been replaced by an "X" or basically a swastika without legs. i like this much better....

Does look much better. A bit condor legion like though. But better :)

What im liking even more is the Hurricane in the bottom right of the pic who's about to unleash hell into the underside of that 109 :D

Maybe not. The 109 has a huge altitude advantage and probably a speed advantage as well. All depends on wheather
the Hurri is pulling out of a high speed dive or just taking off.

As much as I like historical accuracy I prefer the X over the real thing. I'd just as soon never see another swastika.

Are you Panzergranate in disguise? Thats another 109 :lol:

The swastika replacement doesn't bother me. I guess the cross is less obvious though so better.

what is kinda weird about that picture is you can see the holes for the prop blades on the spinner/hub clearly. so you should see the prop blade as well.....

Maybe they haven't done the prop animations for it yet. Seems other screenshots and videos have show spinning props.
