have you given much attention the ads for birds of prey?
The name it is being sold under and promoted
IL2 Sturmovik:Birds of Prey
http://www.1cpublishing.eu/game/il-2...-prey/overview
Would you say that excludes Oleg? I would NOT think anyone, especially another developer could use IL2 Sturmovik to promote a game.
Anyone reading that name would naturally think Oleg was associated to a large degree with that product.
The name Il2 Sturmovik is unique enough and has enough clout among users it wouldn't be smart NOT to call the BOB SOW--->
IL2 Sturmovik Storms of War: Battle of Britain
Branding is what it is all about, and Oleg has a great brand name
