I personally don't think I will contribute anymore to this conversation unless we all put aside our national pride and look at things objectively.

Please see the above post Mr 'Unbiased'.

This whole thread is seriously overmodelled, therefore I insist that it should be fixed by the devs in no time!! Also cheating, HOing, vulching and shoulder shooting along with getting a kill using superior E state has been witnessed. That is not all but I am too upset to type anymore!

You know I have seen so many old arguments trotted out on this thread. To all those reading this whether 'biased' or 'unbiased' I highly recommend Stephen Bungay's 'Most Dangerous Enemy' it is almost universally praised and covers much (all I think) of the strategic and tactical topics covered by this thread.

One last thing. I saw a post on here that describes Dowding as incompetent, now he certainly had his faults but they were outweighed 1000 to 1 by his accomplishments. Lord Dowding was and has been judged by history as a leader of rare genius.

I agree.

Unfortunately, in a previous book recommending thread, some members, and one in particular, held that book up as an example of what has been called 'propaganda for the little people'.

He didn't state at the time whether or not he'd actually read it.

I am put in mind of Captain Beard from Blackadder going 'There are two school's of thought on that.... Mine and everyone else's'
