Actually the P.24 isn't really Polish. Urm, ... let me rephrase this... the P.24 is Polish product but was never used by Poles. They used the significantly inferior P.11c and exported all P.24s to Greece, Bulgaria and Romania I think. _________________

Since my German army is well versed in aircraft, and I recently got a fighter for my Italian army, I think it is about time my second favorite army gets a plane. My first thought was the 109 E or G, but Red Baron has a better idea, the IAR-80 is a Romanian built fighter that was about equal to the 109 so I vote for it.
I know there are other countries that also need a fighter, like the Russians and French, but let them eat cake. lol My Romanian army needs air power.

Baron, I'm aghast!
The Finns need a Buffalo or Hurricane, the the Russians another plane? At most you could suggest a biplane. Tisk, tisk. _________________ It is enough that the people know there was an election. The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything.

UK Highlands Sniper
"The ghillie suit was allegedly developed by Scottish gamekeepers as a portable hunting blind. Lovat Scouts, a Scottish Highlands regiment formed by the British Army during the Second Boer War, is the first known military unit to use ghillie suits. In 1916, Lovat Scouts went on to become the British Army's first sniper unit." _________________

Hehe... that plane was a kind of a landmark as I know. It incorporated several innovations when it was launched into production and... quite an important piece in the pre-war, early war, even middle war era with several countries using it.
Wait to see how the Polikarpov I16 looks in winter camo, it's all silver with 2 big red stars on the wings... its awesome man! _________________ Custom AAM Maps & Counters here

I've made a couple of those so far. I think they were very much wanted by thier new owner.

I already see someone has said soviet T-28. But for my HEAVY ARMOR games, I want to see the AMERICAN T-28. The western Allies really have NOTHING to combat the German heavies. Maybe in the AAM rules a Pershing could tackle a King Tiger or Hunting Tiger, but in real life it just wasnt so. Only the rare "super Pershing" or this T-28 beast could have done it.
Wait ... oh yeah ... I am making those right now, as I type. Should have something to show next week. I am making about 12 of them (obviously a few are for sale). Here is a sneak peak using one of my ref pics.
This tank was no wild idea that was never gonna see action. They were ready, and could have been put into action. Only red tape stopped them. They sat over here in the US and MASY have seen action had the Germans not abandoned the Zigfried line. They were also slated to see action against Jap bunkers, but the war ended before they could be deployed. Heavier armor than a maus tank, these slow tanks actually would have worked fine, as they were not to be used as a "tank", but more a special purpouse heavy fortification attacker. Its 105mm gun did DEVASTATING things to concrete or armor.
I have finished the molds for the treads (4 tracks per tank) and the wheel assemblies. I am currently working on the main hull. Thier will be about 16 resin cast pieces in this kit when I am done, and other parts.

The Polikarpov I-16 looks awesome!
But my vote goes to the Sexton. Self-propelled artillery, based on the M3 chassis, with a British 25 pounder. |

So top on my list sits the Romanian Fighter IAR 80 and that would make the Romanians "stand alone". Right now they lack the official "AA" units. I would love also some French "obsolete ww2" artillery or an Anti-Air artillery for the Italians. The Germans lack the Panzer 3 Mark J, I would love that. Last, for the Finns some new infantry.
Classification:
1. IAR 80 - 1 |
I have never agreed with you more, But i would like it to be IAR 81 (with the dive bomb capability) The tactical implications would be great. _________________

It is difficult to choose a single unit when we want several units
I chose:
-M1941 Johnson machine gun _________________ -"I want a Great War set !"
