Guess who's getting a blood eagle preformed on them~ Anyway, salamander or T33 to the Axis?

Salamander. I don't know when they get rolled out, but the T33 won't be a match for later German armor (That's already in development, I should add) like the Panther or Tiger I. It just won't.

Sensei, I must ask about one thing from the full QOL.
Replacing the aluminum helmets and vest with thinner manganese steel. Did it happen? Would it matter? Aluminum barely counts as armour.

In truth, I've been 'going easy' since I changed the rules regarding to aluminum and by all rights I probably should have mentioned that they aren't very good, but I didn't because of course you wouldn't have made those anyway if you knew. So sure, I'll make a note about armor vests changing materials.

Correction, Germany will benefit from the better torpedo and Japan will laugh their asses off at our own.

Well this turn kinda floundered. Any who the Haast is a year or two ahead of it's time and is better then any other ground attack plane during this period.

I am getting used to being salty. QOL revision went exactly as I expected. Modernized HMG would be so much better. In fact everything from the long list of proposals would be better

Restart Stallion production (1) strongpoint
Restarting Stallion production doesn't cost us anything and I see no reason to not vote for it. At worst it won't be used on frontlines

Q.L. mostly won as a protest vote, in my mind. Feels like a political thing rather than a good choice. If only we had some better voting method...

QoL won because we thought it would make our general infantry superior to Cannalan infantry.  That turned out to not be the case.

We should probably equip them with superior weapons and armor then.

The big problem we have been having is basically improving in the same area over and over, air, combined with bad rolls that mean the designs haven't meant much at all.
