Definitely,We need more German Ships for sure. Also we need more Destroyers like a generic Destroyer for The US navy, Japanese navy, and the British and the German Navy. Also, We lack French Warships in the game. Also can we have Axis transport ships so we don't have to use the Allied transport ships ?

Also I can we fix the icon issue for Japanese planes ? When ever I select a blank skin for a Japanese plane, the Japanese icon doesn't show up. For example, it happen to the Ki-61 , the Ki-84, and A6m Zero.

Could we have SAAF (South Africans) added to the list of air forces, please? They played important part in MTO campaigns.
Also, desert/MTO skins for static Hurricanes, Blenheims, and for Matilda tanks.

I guess Martin Maryland would be too much to ask?

I don't think that these requests would specifically interfere with the ban on MTO content and they'd be very easy to do. They already exist as mods.

There are a lot of early war British bombers which aren't in the game, and it would take a massive amount of time and effort to model them all.

The Martin Maryland would be a good choice if we had to pick just one, since it served with France as well as the UK - thus giving us a "French" medium bomber.

The infamous 'ban on the MTO content' must be some kind of urban legend - not long ago DT announced that central Tunisia map is in the works, hopefully to be released with 4.12.

Reading the new, superb "History of the Mediterranean Air War 1940-1945" by Christopher Shores I learned, to my surprise, that Marylands were used as improvised long-range fighters, quite successfully intercepting Ju-52s bringing supplies from Crete to the Western Desert - that is, until they were decimated by Ju 88C-6's of I./NJG 2.

Did I allready mention my wish, that the Magnetos should be set to off when starting from an Airfield with skills set to complex engine management?

That does sound like a good idea. I know the markings difference is subtle but well worth it. I've been doing some RAF and Commonwealth markings and scheme research. I'll add RAAF to my list if I get a chance to ever finish that... I'd love to see some basically good official markings for RAF aircraft that are standardized across the board. A lot of models were set up with 2 point rather than 3 point markings (i.e. top and bottom of wings plus fuselage) but we can try.

Any South Africans around to record a speech pack?
