Only German aces are in the top aces listing. Is the listing only meant to show aces from the player's chosen country?

I started an American campaign... To do some testing.

also, some of those people definitely shouldn't be in the sky in 1918.

They seem to be final scores for those that died y June '18 (Voss, Bolcke, Gontermann) but why is MvR showing only a 61 and not 80?

The BoX career newspaper gives only list of players nations aces. This is unlike RoF, where newspaper shows scores of allcwars highest aces till this day.

 

It works the same way in WW2 campaign.

Given incompatibile kill confirmation rules between services, I don't think it's bad idea.

 

Germans doing historically unplausible missions, though? That I have problem with. My campaign started with escorting far beyond the front two seaters (thing which Jagdflegeen never did, and reason d'etre of Schustas). Said two seaters were on daylight bombing mission (which FAs also never did in 1918).

I plan at some point to have another look at the mission list, because before this update I didn't have time. So please, yes, continue to post issues with the mission assignments and I'll see what can be done. I know I've already seen some other ones on the Entente side.

That's not the case, I'm flying a British career... and also just have a list of German aces. Its seems FC just lists German aces currently ?‍♂️

So: @LukeFF

German Jastas have bomber escort missions. German escort missions beyond the front should be done by Shustas / Schlastas, not Jastas. Also, German daylight two-seater missions far beyond the front should be predominantly recons, not bombing runs. 

German Jastas free hunt missions have objectives far beyond the front. 

Free hunt missions need reaching a waypoint to success. My free hunt mission never reached the waypoint because my flight  intercepted and destroyed several enemy flights. Free hunt was still failed. I think destroying enemy plane should be enough to succeed in free hunt?

It looks like the newspaper and the career dates aren't in sync. This listing would have to be from between Sep.23 and Nov.23, 1917 to be accurate.
