Will I ever be able to play as Johnny Red?

[jimmyjam]

Wouldn't that be fantastic if they added the Hurricane at some point. Does anyone think it will eventually be released? Anyone else a Johnny Red fan? I became a fan when I was a kid and found some old Battle Action comics under my cousins neighbours house haha.

I kind of need a theatre in order to relate to these planes. 

The A 20 is basically a boston. I would have loved it to death If I flew it in North Africa. 

And the G in PTO. 

A russian Hurricane would not really give that feeling. Unless we get Northfront. And still it would not be the same as Bsttle of France and Britain

A flash back to my youth.

Don't for get his mosquito also

[jimmyjam]

Oh yes, that's right. a mosquito would be so good!

You bring back some old memories there. I used to love reading Johnny Red.

We sent nearly 3000 of the things to the russians, MkII's too. they could feasibly be a collector plane if you don't mind getting shot down a lot.

though hurribombers would be welcome.

But Johnny Red was the best ace on the eastern front so the Hurricane must be the best fighter plane, da? ?

Oh, I meant to quote this haha too much beer ?

Also, why does it show that I have only purchased Bodenplatte, Flying Circus and tank crew when I have bought all of them. I have Moscow and Kuban as well and obviously Stalingrad... ?

If you got several items through steam like me, they won't show in your profile.

only items purchased from the direct store show in the forum profile.

Because those are the only one you bought before release . Pre purchases give you a badge 

Anyway, they talked about stop doing that

I had no knowledge of Johnny Red before I stumbled over the comics remake by Garth Ennis (Preacher, The Boys, Hellblazer, Punisher). Before that I had read his take on the Night Witches in "Battlefields". Now I'm going through most of his WWII-related comics because I'm intrigued by his approach to weave actual history into a fictional stories.

 

Some  of  Ennis' WWII-related comics:

 

Battler Britton

Dreaming Eagles

Battlefields

Night Witches

Out of the Blue

 

and, of course, Johnny Red

Good stuff. Learned some of my early art off those Masters.

A Soviet Hurricane could work. And there’s always CloD if you want an RAF one.
