Default Online Match Rough Idea?

So while I was sitting in my living room, watching TV, when I suddenly got the idea for a possible Online match, that could be easily set up. The whole basis, though not during WW2, would take place in Spain (Map would probably actually be Sicily?). And it would "take place" during the Spanish Civil War. The only fighters available would be the Me-109E, and the I-16, since both of them actually did go up against one another during the conflict. The Soviet or Republican side would be equipped with I-16s, and for bombers have the Il-4. The Fascist or Nationalist side would be flying Me-109Es, and Ju-87B-2s.

This is just a rough draft of my idea, and I just thought what you all thought of it? Any input as to how to make it better would be helpful, and any ideas of maps, I'm not sure, but Sicily seems to be the best map for it? Also, all but the Il-4 was in the Spanish Civil War. So it would probably be just a Dogfighting match, making it more accurate? Unless suddenly some people want to fly Stuka's and try to bomb the Republican side? Just a rough idea I had.

Same, I like to fly heavier, maybe less mobile planes, and focus on firepower and bombing.

This match sounds interesting though I find with these things that gathering everyone together and getting everyone organized for the battle might be harder than the actual combat.

But the first thing to know is what console do you want to do this on?

It doesn't matter to me which console it's done on. Maybe I'll try it on both, but like you said Matt, it might not be so easy gathering the people, which I have taken into account. But this match (If it can be organized) will consist of the Stuka and the Republicans/Soviets will probably be flying fighters, as during the later years. The Republicans were focused on fighter cover of the cities they controlled etc. The Fascist/Nationalists were more into the offensive. So this game would involve, Stuka's attacking the town or whatever the Republican I-16s are defending. So both of you would be able to fly the Stuka, since that would be the only bomber available at the time. Unless for some wild beautiful reason, they come out with some late 30s planes, in which we could use. But anyway, it doesn't matter what console it's done on. If both sides would like to do it, I'd try it out on both 360 & PS3.

Ok, you can be a Stuka pilot. When I make a list of those interested and willing to play, I'll add you under Stuka pilot

EDIT: Also, my idea may smooth out more as we go along. I absolutely will not start this tomorrow or even friday. But I do promise to start it.
