Thanks Richie

watched this sketch a thousand times and never looked at the Hurricane at the start!

To think it was only 30 years after the real Battle Of Britain....IL2 has now been going for 10 years already!

I still prefer the Python sketch - wartime 'funniest joke in the world'
"over 80,000 times as powerful as Britain's great pre-war joke"

Prehaps i've got time to watch all 4 series before BoB is released...

So is there a name change with the sim? "IL-2 Sturmovik Battle Of Britain" now?

I think this might be a Russia only thing since IL-2 has much better name recognition there than in the North American market. IL-2: Battle of Britain might confuse people here in N.A., "IL-2 what's that?" Meanwhile, "Storm of War" has a nice ring to it.

Just a thought.

Sure is an option, but it would create hell for the marketing guys, especially if you consider later add-ons.

If they go for IL2 as an umbrella brand, they could use the rep of the original IL which is in fact very well known.

An indicator? heres a better one, - UBI IS NOT THE PUBLISHER!!!

Over a year ago i posted up my conversation with James OReilly at ubisoft, they dont come much higher than him hes the group brand manager. Obviously very few on here believed me but now it seems that its finally sinking in that UBI ARE NOT THE PUBLISHERS.

You forgot to say that you have been flamed and offended for it.

Anyway, where can I get my russian copy from?
