Can we get reasons for your choices?

For a long time I couldn't fly anything but the Allies, mostly western (USA/GB). I felt I couldn't play an emulation of the armed forces of the countries that did all those horrible things. These days I still have a very healthy preference for western allies, then IJN then other Axis, but will fly any side for online balance.

Although I've been reading about Japan's participation and absolutely appalling ethical conduct during WWII, I am really interested in carrier warfare, so that's why the IJN preference over other Axis powers.

I'm particularly curious to hear about those that choose the LW

why the LW? becouese i like the planes the most. big guns and balanced performence and maneuverabilty. I tned not to like the allied planes becouse they tned to have to much maneuverability and too less speed, or the other way around.

If appalling ethical conduct in WWII would be a factor in choosing the faction, we would all fly bf 109E with swiss markings. But maybe you are not talking about the armys, but about the government?

I choose the axis because I am German and Swiss and beacause I prefere to have speed instead of tight turn capability. I also like the 20mm. When it comes to the Pacific, I choose F4 over zero any day

Luftwaffe all the way. I am german. I am no nationalist or something. But for some reason i always tend to play my country. ROF was the same. Even thou the allied side had(s) the better planes).

I choose Regia Aeronautica because the shock hasn't worn off (of them being in BOB).

Someone going to make stickers with a Falco silhoutte ObEy!!

For the Luftwaffe fans. In reality there was not a Luftwaffe anthem in the periode.
