Why 1C doesn't list IL2-Sturmovik on their site
 

Sturmovik or 1946 are not among the 1C games listed in their site ... funny.

Re: Why 1C doesn't list IL2-Sturmovik on their site
 

Because they sold the marketing rights to UBI?
And they only show those items they can sell, or own copyright on?

perhaps they'll partner with another Co, such as Atari or Battlefront as they did with Theatre of war.

Ahh dreaming of SoW and KoTS joining forces for the good of us all.
With a new Western publisher that actually seems to care.

But 1C is the publisher of Sturmovik and '46 in Russia. UbiSoft are the publishers for the rest of the world.

So who is going to be the one that actually makes some sense of it all?

Some info from the people in charge here would be good.

Not sure why they'd come up with another forum unless it meant something was going to change. Hope what ever it is that it's good for the market, and us 8)

I suppose we will know why this board was opened in....a half month

A bump to get ahead of the locked one's

This pure guesswork, but I suspect this is how it works, because here are the presumed facts:

1. Oleg is contractually obliged to deliver SoW:BoB to Ubi who presumably will own the non-Russian distribution rights

2. This is an ".eu" website and Oleg is posting MedT aircraft

So, I would guess that:

1. Ubi doesn't own distribution rights to SoW:MT, presumably 1C does

2. 1C is evidently happy for development news of SoW:MT to be given here

3. Presumably Ubi won't own the distribution rights for SoW:Korea

- EDIT - Talking out of my backside! RRG list SoW:Korea / Galba as having 1C as publishers. Ahrrg! Save my from my own frustrated speculation!

Maybe someone will shoot me down over this, but it seems to fit the facts! Could make a lot of sense for Oleg: Use Ubi muscle to sell SoW:BoB and get it established, get a better cut from 1C for the rest.

I just hope it all works out!

What you refer to as a "MedT" aircraft (The FIAT Bomber) is in fact a BoB bomber. It represents some of the Italian forces that flew out of Belgium towards the end of the Battle of Britain. This force included Fiat G50 and CR42 fighters ;)

It has nothing to do with a possible SOW:MedT sequel. :wink:
