Actually looking at the quality of the meshes and the detail, I'm very impressed and would have paid double for this game. needless to say, my wallet is burning a hole in my pocket waiting for the next major patch / update (with more planes / cockpits)

Thanks all who contributed to this great game!:grin:

Maybe the Lysander! and by reaction the Storch...:rolleyes:

It is a great game,.. when it moves a bit more smoother on my pc I would literally go and buy every flyable plane offered unless it was something silly like the wright brothers plane.. then again I would probably buy that too!

The beauty is you won't have to buy them seperately.

This is not Rise of Flight, thank goodness.

Wasn't there a Blenheim fighter that was in action in the BOB? Not sure what the difference is and I do know they were a disaster but it would be nice to have these aircraft. The BOB was a time that showed glaring miscalculations in the tactical thinking at the time and it would be nice to experience having to fly such lemons. A bit like flying a 110 as a fighter online :)

Funny, I was just playing around with scenarios and setup the early Blenheim as a fighter , hoping to add in a gun pod .. but alas!

When the war started, the laftwaffe was mostly ready, the English NOT! many a couragous pilot went to his death in antiquated 1930s aircraft. Fairy battle being one and dare I say the defiant ? Funny thing, the Italians were too early, they thought the war would start mid 30s and by 1940 had an airforce of mostly antiquated relics! :grin:

BTW, wasn't the Lysander suppose to be a non-flyer?? would be great to have it part of a long campaign where a successful night landing the night before (dropping off arms and gathering intel) would render a nearby enemy airfield inoperable the next day .. just an idea.

Can anyone find a picture of the version of the blenheim with the remote firing rear under gun turret? I think this version was in Wings of Prey, I want it for CLOD!

Really cool, I found the one for the mk5 but was wondering about the one for mk iv, i think i saw it on 'Wings of prey' blenhiem.. was this feature on the BOB version?

Is the version on the mk5 crewed by an extra man lying down in this gun section?

robtek 09-26-2011 08:49 PM

Here is the Mk.IV
