So I have been away from the game (online anyway) for a whole year.  It now looks as if AA50 has been abandoned for G40. Is that the general feeling?

@CWO:

@ABWorsham:

Did I forget a category or person?

I don’t know how his numbers stack up against the others, but Adolf Galland shot down over a hundred Allied aircraft.

Galland ranked right up there, if not surpassed, most of the airmen in the Luftwaffe.

I read the book about him. Very awesome story. Read the book, then watch the movie. 

Interesting story Garg, interesting story.

And thanks Marc for the background info. It’s easy to forget/overlook things like that.

Is anyone still playing AA50 anymore? I seem to be the odd duck out these days. 

Anyway, PM me when you have posted.

Did we/you want to can this game/call it a draw? i think we have run out of steam in playing it.

So you are playing G40 yet? It looks as if anyone playing AA50 is a dying breed around here. For me, G40 seems a bit too overwhelming.

You going to check out A&A 1914? That looks interesting.
