    Corrected, thanks.

    Updated the list with the latest releases. If the points numbers have been changed from the original thread, let me know.

    This thread isn't a sticky is it? That would be great if it was/is?

    OK, my turn to stumble onto this thread.

    A list of Nexus/Ares miniatures, cross referenced by their time of operation on each front and again by their Andreas point values. AWESOME.

    If you haven't seen this, go directly to the updated Post #1 in this thread. It is like wine pairings for your favorite entrees. I now know that I can field a game of reasonably historically accurate opponents.

    AND... it gives me a jump start on targets for further research on my own.

    AND... gives me dreams of for historically appropriate repaints (e.g. a three pack of Sopwith Camels vs. a trio of Albatros D.V's).

    Well played, Mike and contributors.

    Be careful with the dates of some of these for match ups, Jan - for instance, the Camel may have been around in May but didn't fly in combat until July '17; You'll need to add the SE5 flew ops at the end of April '17, before the SE5a came about in June.

    I corrected the Camel in my app. S.E.5 has been correct with introduction in April 17.
    I understand this is gonna be quite a task. I will start with a general matchup before i possibly introduce any exact dates.

    Hmmm... So, my references were not entirely accurate? It could be that some of these were "First Flight" dates? Any assistance with keeping the information as accurate as possible would be appreciated.

    Have I missed a plane release, and therefore need to update this?
