Thanks for the new units. Now I have to go out and get a P-51 model!
I am a little confused about the P-47D though. This plane is already in the book. The book version is 270 points with 6 .50 cal MG (another typo as the D always had 8) and 2x1000 lb bombs. In S&P it's 215 points with EIGHT .50 cal MG and no bombs. Adding 2x1000 lb bombs costs 125 points bringing the total to 340, 70 points more than in the book.
1) Is the 70 point discrepancy to account for the two .50 cal MGs that weren't there to begin with? I'm assuming that the points are related to combat strength (number and size of weapons, armor, speed, etc.) and when you change numbers, by adding weapons this changes the cost of the Asset. This is, in effect, an errata for the P-47D.
2) The new means of arming the plane is great. Is this system going to go retroactive to the other planes in the book, for example, couldn't the Typhoon also carry rockets?
*EDITED*
3) Also noticed the "Cruise/Burn" instead of "Loiter/Cruise", what gives?
