Is IL2 1946 still alive?

Yes, its all about inter-squad play, setting up maps, with controllers, parsers and going to war. In Ghost Skies we fly three times per week for 10-12 weeks and then go to another phase of the same map or start a new map. CoD cannot even begin to fill this niche, if not for the squads and the online wars I would not be flying any sim at all. Even Air Quake servers get boring after a while. As for CoD, its brilliant but it will be a bit before it comes into its own and we can do the 'controllers' and 'parsers' and have an adequate online war with it.

Ghost skies: is that eastern front?

I'd be very interested in any Western front, even, dare I say it, BoB based campaign leagues, and I think there'd be a couple of others in my squad that would be too.

Much as Clod is an undoubted upgrade to the stock IL-2 graphics and FM, it's lack of functionality in effect means we're flying on an empty Spits v 109 server with no ground attack missions (no, I still can't take off in the Blenhiem) to break the boredom, the occaisonal buggy AI buff and of course no map changes.

A modded '46 campaign would be extremely welcome.
