    There isn't a dedicated Me262 deck Daniel but if you PM Sven (Marechallannes), Andrzej (Nightbomber), or Steve (Guntruck) they'll be able to give you a steer as they've all worked on using the Me262 in WGS. You may have this info or seen these threads already:

    I'm working on this project now, actually. Running into issues, as "Thrust" (jets) is different than "Power" (prop planes)
    I'm still sorting out the fruit salad.

    This pdf file has been around in the House Rules section for some tlme now and there are some plane cards available in the files as well. I`ve been thinking about doing some rule cards and maybe a custom deck based of them myself for the Gloster Meteor. https://www.wingsofwar.org/forums/do...o=file&id=2571
    I like the rules for engine flameout and gun jamming for the 262 but think it should be allowed at least one sideslip myself. Might be worthwhile doing a custom deck which incorporates the booster card into it.

    I think the in-flight engine damage rule a bit harsh; the Jumo 004s were unreliable due to inadequate materials, but this was more of a short service life rather than a "lets explode in combat" issue.
    The flameout issue is a good rule; I'm thinking it would be an issue for the Meteor too, yes?
    The jamming of the Mk.108 is an interesting rule, but IMO, should only be rolled for if the plane made a high-G maneuver the turn of firing, say a 45 degree turn or such. The same gun had these problems in the Fw-190, but not as much in the Bf-109s.
    The bigger problem with them, as has been discussed in other threads on cannons, is it's low MV and poor ballistics. This is where the WoG engine breaks down: all MGs are not the same, and all Cannon are really not the same!
    I would allow the Mk.108 short ranged fire only, and half effect against fighters. It was a bomber-buster, pure and simple, and while any single hit against a fighter would probably be a kill, getting one was very difficult.
