More mobility for fighters

[dilk]

Hi,
base mobility of 1936 type fighters is 50.
Is there any way how I can increase that number?

Agility? Better engine or reduced weight.

Neigher engines nor weight impact agility. You only boost it via doctrines, design companies, wing experience and aces. And maybe a few more equally non-construction methods.

Would it be appropriate for the game to have a "biplane" option (module) whose effect might be:

BONUS: + X agility
PENALTY: minus Y (or some other penalty).

Biplanes reportedly had very good agility (maneuverability)

Biplanes were hitech in WWI, lowtech in WWII. If maximized agility with low speed was a winning concept, Fokker Dr. I triplane would have been used thru WWII. in reality, it was phased out before WWI ended. I oppose bonuses for biplanes.

Excess thrust from better engines or less of a load does provide agility.
