Wait one thing for me, we've got to play on realistic for me to be in, if I'm to fly a German plane that is. Normally I would prefer Simulator by a mile, but I can not fly with that virtual cockpit.

Ok, so here's my layout of where, and what planes will be taking part. I won't start it today, as I'm going out with some friends for lunch in a half-hour, but I should get it going tomorrow or so? (Labor day is the best work-day day off!!)

List of Planes (Any plane not on the list, will not be able to partake. I want to keep this authentic and cool as possible.)

Republican/Soviet Forces

I-16 Type 24 Rata/Mosca- Will mostly be used as a fighter, and support of bombers.

I-153 Chaika- Also will be used as a fighter, and support of bombers.

Po-2- Though it doesn't have a forward firing gun(s), it will be used as the Republican version of the Ju-87 Stuka B-2. This plane will have to be covered very well, so those flying the I-16s and I-153s will have to keep it close to the Po-2s.

Nationalist/Fascist Forces

Me-109 E3- Will be used as the fighter it is made to be. Will also be used to give cover to the bombers.

Ju-87 B2- Obviously will be used as the light bomber. Though it does have guns forward in the wings, it will still need some cover from the I-16s and I-153s.

He-111 H6- They weren't really used in the Spanish Civil War, but they were on the ground before the war ended, so I will allow them. Probably won't need as much fighter cover as the Ju-87s, but it never hurts to be careful.

The map will probably be either a Sicily map, or Stalingrad during the Spring. Both will do, any Sicily map will do since both Spain and Sicily are Mediterranean and they do sorta look the same.

I'm not sure how I'll spread out the numbers of players for the each side. I would like it so their is an even number of fighters and bombers on either side. But since people are jumping for Ju-87 duty, some might have to switch to flying a I-16 or something, incase the number of players on one side is more than another. Wanna keep things fare.

EDIT: Also, the game will probably be played in Strike. And the Nationalist/Fascist force will have to be aggressive as they were really into attacking Republican/Soviet ground targets etc. But the Republican/Soviet forces, were also highly aggressive with their tactics of attacking the enemy bombers.

Ok, so I'm starting on the list of who's flying Stuka's etc. If you wanna join this, just say what you want to fly, and what system (360 or PS3) so then I know who to contact etc. when the game starts up on which ever console.

EDIT: It will be on both consoles, but some are on before others, so it's more timing then anything?

I can fly either a ground attack or a fighter, depending on who wants what, I'll be pretty versatile. Though my preference will be ground attack. Then I just need to make sure I have said plane unlocked!

One other note is that I'm not sure what the status of my headset will be at, is it crucial for me to be able to talk?

Don't worry. It won't be going on until we get some German cockpits and hopefully a cockpit for the I-153 Chaika. There's plenty of time. I just need your plane and console name But I'll put you down as what you gave. You can always change before as well.

@Matt: Don't worry, just give me a plane (Stuka maybe?) so I can put you down. Thanks.

Alright good, I'll tell you my plane of choice later today, I just need a quick look around my hanger to see what planes I have on that list. (mind you by the time the match starts, I'll probably have a lot more).
