Yeah, I'm with you guys on keeping the tech WWII. In my opinion, it allows for a much greater range of possibilities. Not to mention as Willy said, that's a seriously drastic change in tech for a lot of us returning players. I always much preferred the "dieselpunk" style era of the 1940s more so than the early 1900s. Mainly because of the stated above reason, but also its a lot less controversial when it comes to tech. It always seems you have people arguing over "The first semiauto rifles!" or "Full metal planes" ect. 1940s aka early WWII era tech gets rid of a lot of that stupid tech argument stuff.

Also, I shall be rejoining as The Greater Republic of Avalia. AIRSHIPS FTW!!!!
