I've picked up a few more WWII planes. One of them is a Nakajima B6N2. I was looking for the stats for this plane, plus any Cards that may be available. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I've picked up a few more WWII planes. One of them is a Nakajima B6N2. I was looking for the stats for this plane, plus any Cards that may be available. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
I couldn't find the B6N2 in the Unofficial aircraft list, nor could I find stats for the late war Focke-Wulf Ta-152. I'll begin a different thread for the Ta-152.
Karl, could you, please, add the B6N2 to your list of plane stats requests for whenever you have the time?

Ferry range: 3,045 km (1,892 mi, 1,644 nmi)

Time to altitude: 5,000 m (16,404 ft) in 10 minutes 24 seconds
Wing loading: 139.8 kg/m2 (28.6 lb/sq ft)

Is there something that filters out Wikipedia links here?

Mike, I hope these pics help.
The pictures are a great help.

Now for units/crews...
PS: 131 Kōkūtai (Naval Air Group) 'Fuyō Butai' ("Mount Fuji")?
Looks great, and 131 Kokutai sounds good.
Awaiting official approval:

[Edit: Maneuver Deck corrected to new Unofficial recommendation]
Also, because of the rear gunner controlling the dorsal and ventral guns, we probably need a crew management card?
Should it be on a Heavy Fighter Base like it's predecessor, the B5N2? You made some excellent looking B5N2 Kates on HF base cards. But, I am definitely not any kind of expert.
Just under the 15m wingspan break, so it is a fighter base. (14.894m)Quote:

Or use this:

[Edit: Adjusted crew position indicator line to the octagon on the plane.]
Yep! Downloaded, printed, sleeved, and ready to go. Thanks again, Mike and Karl.
Hmmm... Not yet approved?Quote:

Yea, I know. I've been through the reprints before after I've jumped the gun. I was excited for the "I*" deck choice, since I had extra "I" decks from the "Fire from the Sky" set. Looking forward (patiently) to the committee's official decision.
I'm not conversant enough with things like self-sealing fuel tanks, armor, etc... that will change the way Damage Points are assigned, as well as the speeds different planes fly and wing loading that determine maneuvrability. So, there could be other changes to the card. It might be bang-on, but that would be just a lucky SWAG on my part.Quote:

Note: I'm using the new system for deck modifying: the (7) indicates that the K deck will only use it's regular set of SSs (deleting the fast-only set), as well as making them not-difficult.

Mike, when you are able to find the time, would you please, update the card with Karl's updated stats? :please:
Card above updated.Quote:

Thanks Mike! Your updated card looks a heckuva lot better than my original card with all of the stats written over with a marker.
