Shocking how many are MIA!!!


Whilst reading i did a bit more reading up on the Battle of Midway (this is your fault haha) and came across a pilot called George H Gay. The sole survivor of a Devastator squadron (30 pilots/radiomen) who attacked the IJN carriers without fighter cover.

they put his story in the movie "midway"... courageous and LUCKY man

They are trying to make it more humiliating :)
To stimulate players try more deep difficulty settings.

Unlike simmers, most of the people don't think that 'arcade' means 'ridiculously easy'.

To be better prepared and sufficiently trained for the upcoming battle of the Kuban peninsula you guys better learn how to handle the IL2 Shturmovik. This instruction video should help a lot. Better brush up your russian though... Mine is a bit rusty ;-)

Why Foz? The Pacific Ocean is a mighty big place, I'm surprised that they found as many sailors and downed air crew as they did.
