Try the 110C4. So much easier!

I tried again, and it seems that the settings on QM affect the results a lot by changing AI behavior.
If I climb a bit, AI turns around and confronts me. If I just try to pursue, they will fly away from me, acquire lots of speed (I can't catch them), and then turn around far away and fight back. Somehow this gives them an advantage I can't counter back with my sluggish 110. I always avoid frontal fire exchange, because I consider it "cheating". Even if the Pe2 rear gunner is a cheat in itself! Some marksman those guys! They will fire at you with precision never matter hard turns, high G's or whatever. |

Saying that, in one on one encounter in multiplay I'd prefer Pe-3 bis to any Bf 110 model. -------------- Just tried C4, D1 and E2 in 500 m scenario vs AI Pe-3bis. I still prefer F2 as it seems to me the most balanced in speed and agility. C4 was a bit difficult due to lower speed and climb. D1 surprised with good climb (is it better than F2?) - with all tanks dropped, of course. All in all, I have concluded that I can beat AI Pe-3bis in any Bf 110 variant in most cases. Multiplay is different story

Actually, the german pilots had the exact same opinion! Looks like TD did a good job with the FM!

I had literally tons of QMB scenarios in which I went vs at least 4 ace enemy aircraft of the correct period. Like Hurricane vs 4 He-111 (downing 4 of those on ace level with Hurri was a nightmare as those were the snipers back in a day), F6F3 vs 4x ace Ki-84s, F4F vs 4x ace A6M etc. stuff like that.
Arguably A6M was the toughest ace Ai from that time, close second would be boosted Spitfire. But last time I fired up the game it was like 2009 or 2010 so many thing could have changed. Once I even pushed to the limits and went Me-262 vs B-17 scenario... managed to down 25 of them on realistic settings. One of these days I'll probably put some of the most interesting stuff online, if for anything that for nostalgia's sake. |

Me 262 vs B-17 is "classic" scenario...
As much as I loved it and tried it I never managed to shoot more than 12 or so(offline). By the way one good campaign was adapted to BAT last year: https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.p...c,55095.0.html

Here is a fun battle. I have had fun this past week flying four ace 1940 Re.2000 aircraft against four ace 1943 La5fn aircraft.
I start the battle at 250 meters altitude on the Smolensk map. The tactic I found that works best for me is as soon as the La5fn comes into sight I order my wingmen to attack them as I veer off ninety-degrees to the right and climb up to almost 1000 meters. I roll into the battle as my wingmen meet the distracted La5fn squad. The Re.2000 has light armament and much less power than the La5fn fighters so if you can wipe them all out before they wipe out you and all your wingmen you will have earned the victory. I have gotten to the point where I can win this battle just about every time, so I will look for another one soon, but not before giving the La5fn squad one more chance.... |

I tried it in multiplayer against probably every "red" fighter except La-7 and Yak-3. A lot of fun. Highly recommended. By the way, it can be used as very precise fighter bomber or even dive bomber (yes, despite its meager bomb load).

Okay, four ace Re.2000 vs, four ace 1940 I-16s is a tough fight because the I-16s are well-armed, very maneuverable and they are at least as fast as the Re.2000. I have only tried this a couple times so far and have not beaten them yet. Looks like a lot of work.
