Med theather is pretty playable IMHO...

Of these two, I would definitely opt for the Med. After 1943, Japanese carriers didn’t play any meaningful role, and the chances for an attacking JNAF torpedo bomber, even land based, were so slim that the only viable way to continue fighting was the extreme measure of “special attack”. I don’t think any player would opt for a torpedo or bomber JNAF career ending with a suicide attack.
Expanding Mediterranean theatre could result in interesting scenarios and career. An Italian pilot will start on the blue side, and could switch to red after September 8th 1943. Italian Co-Belligerent Air Force flew mainly Spitfire V, P39Q and Martin Baltimore… And just the latter would be needed.
