Change "Tanks" to "Battleships" (or something similar) and "Artillery Barrages" to "Naval Bombardments". Given that the average jet fighter IRL actually costs way more than the average tank, it kinda makes sense.

mrford - planes are like boats (an acronym for Bust Out Another Thousand). The initial investment is minute in comparison to what you're gonna spend for upkeep and such over its lifetime. You think gas for your camaro is expensive? HA!

A boat is just a hole in the water that you pour money into.

if owns mig (not that easy to get 1) and wants to fly with it then fuel (kerosine) costs alot (http://www.icispricing.com/...ed/Samples/SubPage253.asp) and then come spare parts (not cheap either) so ........... and besides where the heck would put it? its wee bit too big for garage and neighbors for sure don't want to watch it.

Well, that last one I have covered as I live about 5 minutes north of a regional airfield that is currently hosting 2 or 3 older (80's) style jets.

My uncle used to keep a plane on a trailer in his backyard - seemed to work out ok except the year the raccoons got into the fluffpit.

Change troops to 1/1, tanks to 2/2, turrets to 0/8, and jets to 8/0 and adjust prices and all formulae accordingly.
