A website will show people that SOW is not longer vaporware but released "soon". Even if we are still a year away from release it would be good to have a dedicated
homepage now. Without an expensive advertising campaign the news that development
actually comes to an end will spread slowly. A combat flight sim is a niche product,
it won't get much coverage in media. None hardcore fans may overlook it.
Any homepage for a sim in development won't need many screenhots. The Shogun 2:TW
homepage (release sometime around summer 2011) has currently just 3. The old Il-2
page did show the same screens from Oleg's development updates in it's screenshot section.
Also, there are many screenshoots that look good enough for advertising. Like the
various planes before blue sky or water, the spitfire in the wheat field or the
landscape from various altitudes.
