Thanks Arakash. I like your ideas here.
You're right about engines getting too large by mid WWII. The famous Rolls Royce Merlin engine was a 27L V12 and the biggest the game can produce is a 20L V12. There were even bigger engines around right at the start of the war too! The Junkers Jumo 211 entered production in 1936 and powered some of Germanys most famous eaircraft and it was 35L!!!
I'd love to be able to make these monsters but I dare say that to make such engines possible would require a bit of an overhaul of the game.
But, as you point out, there is still plenty of scope of engines that can currently be made in the game to fit into the system.
