Just a few thoughts and questions

1. Why is there so many cert aircraft? I would think that they would be saved for training

2. How long does ww2 even last in dvtl

3. I really like the detail it’s pretty good.

4. Do the nazis have helicopters?

5. Olympian is downtimer future tech right?

6. What’s the biggest usage of uptimer aircraft post shift

7. Do the Canadians pre-shift get destroyers again?

1. its actually not that many Cert aircraft considering the fleet size. The majority of the pilots and support staff are running training courses, but a decent number are surged to Europe to provide a qualitative edge and solve crises.

2. into 1946

4. yes

5. not quite, olympian is the code word for pre-shift uptime, promethean is post-shift enhanced, epimethean is pre-shift downtime

6. the sensor fusion, range, general situational awareness, lift capability, weapons, all weather capability — they are incredibly powerful which is why are they are getting used to provide overmatch

1. How many aircraft are there in the cert fleet?

2. Do museums become a higher priority post-shift since sadly we’ve destroyed tons of history just by scrapping it?

3. How long does whoever runs germanys wild ride last

4. So politically what’s dv gonna be like. For example Tom Clancy is famous for putting conservative views into the spotlight for most of his Jack Ryan’s.

1. i've shown the graphics on twitter but there are several hundred—there were three CVWs and a MAW attached for the exercise. 2. yeah some more ships definitely get saved. 3. Germany will probably fall in early-mid June '46. 4. I think my politics are clear with both the worldbuilding and the characters i've built.

1. Yea I saw. I just wanted to make sure cause I haven’t seen you talk about it much lately.

2.i mean yea ,I know your like politics but I more of like is communism more acceptable cause our main enemies are the entente or?

3. How far is the air lore?

4. How does dv start? Like red storm rising straight to the plot or is it framed like a historical novel.

Question: Is the narrative shifting back and forth between dates Sept 2 and Sept 12, or are there calendrical highjinks afoot and it's all one night?
