I asked earlier, but I think my question got a bit lost in the shuffle: are *all* the planes in each region/country going to be available after they're 'conquered?' The reason I'm asking is I'm pretty hyped about the German jet fighters now, so if/when we capture Germany I can fly one.

* Regarding Jets, I originally did not intend to allow players to use them because I did not want them to be used as tactical Kamikaze against bombers, maybe I will add them with certain conditions or as privilege to officers, dont know yet, I have to think about it. |

By 'tactical Kamikaze,' I'm assuming you're saying that the team who is flying the jet fighters would have some sort of overwhelming advantage over bombers... I'm not sure if that's your meaning, or if that would even be the case. Jet fighters certainly have speed, but bomber escorts could certainly develop tactics to combat them I would think... plus, if the jet fighters do have an advantage, this only offsets the advantage that the B-17 brings to the table... although I guess this may be moot if both sides can use the B-17 equally from the start of the game. I do hope you come up with a way to include the jet fighters in your campaign; with all the T&B, dogfighting in BOP is soooo one-dimensional, and IMHO the option to include more B&Z plane choices is a sorely needed aspect to this simulator, which accurately reflect the real-life awareness and adjustment to the tactics of energy fighting & situational awareness (something somehwhat missing in the endless descending spiral dogfights that dominate BOP). |

what I meant by "tactical kamikaze" was that I dont want players to use jets as suicide fighters to ram into the bombers.
Most likely I will add Jets but they will be used by privileged Officers only and with severe consequences for intentional ramming. Also, Jets will only be available to the team that controls the German Territory. |

Awesome! I agree - ramming bombers should be prohibited from any plane... to be honest I wouldn't expect anyone participating in your tourney to stoop to such cheap tactics.
This is gonna be fun! |

Maybe *all* planes should be allowed... on sim they all have advantages and disadvantages, correct? Unless there's something I don't know about one plane being cheap or something...
