Thread: Card request for Curtiss SB2C-3 Helldiver

  1. #1

    Default Card request for Curtiss SB2C-3 Helldiver

    My new batch of planes have recently arrived from Japan and China. Would anyone have the time, and be kind enough to produce a card for one of my new planes, a Curtiss SB2C-3 Helldiver? I would definitely appreciate it. Current stats are K* deck, CC/C forward, A/A rear arc, 23 damage.

    Those planes look great. I will look at home and see what I'm using. (well, technically have. I haven't been using anything recently).

    Sweet! I can finally get this plane into play. Just curious, why did you go with rear fire at B/A instead of A/A?

    Oh, and I just noticed that the card lists the plane as an SC2C-3 instead of SB2C-3.

    Hmmm... I looked at the Unofficial Stats, and it does say A/A. However, a lot of images of the Helldiver showed dual .50 cals? So, I went with the "field mod". I can change it.

    Ooops! I mis-read some stuff. I was seeing .50 cals in the front, changed to 20mm's. Then, the .30 cals in the back looked similar, so I gapped that.

    Excellent!!! I just saved, printed, and sleeved this beautiful card. I already had the deck created, I just needed this card to complete it, and make my Helldiver ready for game play. Thanks Mike!! As always, I greatly appreciate it.

    Now if you get bored sometime, and would like to create some more Mike magic, you could work on my other acquisition that is in need of a card, a Japanese B7A2 Ryusei (Grace). It's already in the Aerodrome Forums.

    Online sources for drawings of the Aichi B7A2 don't provide very good results. How are your sources?

    I went ahead and posted the best line drawing (probably the same one you found) that I could find on my original B7A2 card forum entry.
