IL-2 Sturmovik 1946...will anyone keep playing

[JG53Frankyboy]

as mostly flying bombers on dogfightservers, i hate late war. Only über canon and speed fightermonsters. actually few chances for bombers to get through your target. Escort is seldom. Propably the most fighters "fear" the slow and long approach of the bomber and that they get no chance for 'their' kills........................

my favorite time the last years online were the early MTO campaigns in the VOW (COOP war).
No canons (or very few), nice a long fighterduels and as a bomber you had a chance - in a SM79 actually a very good one

because of that , as mentioned, my favorite MTO would have been Tobruk 41 (109E, Mc200,Hurricane,Tomahawk). With these fighters the bombers have a chance . But the most players 'want' THEIR Spitfire or 109F i guess because of that a 42 scenario would be the better choice for MAddox........

exactly for that reason I am hoping for some early war add ons! A invasion of Poland, a battle of France or a nicely made pre WWII Pacific add on would be wonderfull!
As with the late war maps it is a waste of time taking a bomber....you might as well paint a target on your forehead.
Planes I am hoping they might become flyable one day:













Oh well guess hope dies last.......

but this early MTO thing had the 'charme' that not much totaly new planes would have to be modelled. a lot of the "CoD" planes could be used with modifications

SoW:MTO for 1940/41

Libya/Cyreneika and Sicily/Malta maps

Bf109E-7/Trop
Bf110D
Ju87B/R
Ju88A-5
He111H with Torpedoarmament available

G.50
Cr.42
MC.200
SM.79-II
Br.20M
Ba.65 <- doutbfull, any sources of cockpits ?

Gladiator II
Hurricane Ia Vokes
Hurricane IIb Vokes
Tomahawk IIb
Blenheim IV
Wellington Ic
SeaGladiator
Fulmar I
SeaHurricane Ib
Swordfish

For FAA operations:
Carriers
HMS Illustrious
HMS Eagle
HMS Audacity


Totaly new would be:
MC.200
Tomahawk
Fulmar
Swordfish
SM.79
Ba.65

The rest would be modifications from the SoW:BoB planes, if AI or flyable.
Ju88A-5 would actually be very differ from Ju88A-1 , espacially in cockpit.



it looks like im bored, but i did these researches a long time ago actually

Yes but looks like we are a small minority.

+1


None of these late 30's uber planes like Spitfires and 109's for me

you guys beat me to it . . .


I liked the sea plane Zero, that was fun using the water ways . . .

A catalina and more sea planes would nice to cruise around in.

A Sino And Spanish Civil war would be interesting as add ons. I do also love Korea (MiG Alley infected me with a love for flight sims, it was something memorable, I was one of the few kids in highschool that played it). Flying Tigers would be a cool part too (toss it in the Sino for extras)
