plane suggestions for future

[Flybert]

add Halb D.II and switch Pfalz D.III to fighter

add Sop Tripe to Allied

Reasoning: Halb D.II closer match to N17 .. Sop Tripe a match to Dr.I .. Pfalz D.III about as useful as SPAD 7 as fighter

add the Bullet and E.III as bombers

Reasoning: most games we seem to be having now are at most 9 or 10 players per side, and if one side has 8 or 9 and the other side 7 or 8 ( one player difference ) .. it's a pretty big advantage for the side having 1 more player to be taking the best bomber ( or fighter ) extra

personally, and I think the majority feel this way, I'd rather take a low end bomber than a low end fighter .. IOW .. I'd rather take an E.III over a Pfalz D.III ( if that becomes a fighter ) or a Bullet over a SPAD 7

if there is only 7 players per side .. it allows some choice if 9 planes per side

I'd also switch out the N28 for the SPAD 13 .. it seems the Allieds usually more kills .. adding the Sop Tripe slows down Allieds a bit ( like the Dr.I ) yet they would still have a great climber and turner, The SPAD 13 certainly has the speed but cannot turn fight against either Fokker like the N28 can .. just think it might even out things a bit more

Salute! Flybert,

Thank you for your input.
At the moment we are only halfway though the FC3 tournament, and I would like to wait with the review of the current FC format until we have completed the series of 4 matches. But comments on this subject (or other ways to improve the format) are welcome.

I may move this topic to the Game Development section later, but for the time being this thread will probably be read by more pilots if it stays here.

...why dont we just run CW then with all these changes ?...I got written permission from DM to do so...we just change the FM to a good one.....a rear gun would be awesome to have !!!!...I'd have many more kills....
