I think we will have several war running in a couple of months. And they will be organized around scripted servers which you can join with your squadmates, check which missions are available via TAB - 4 menu, select a mission and fly it against other squads. Similar system was (is?) used in WWII Online Battleground Europe (they have a ranking system and senior offices can post missions for others to complete).

Some basic functionality is available already now at III./JG27 Server

SNAFU is doing a great job in making this happen.

Back then everyone had to right up a log and send it into the admins after every mission. Scores would then be tallied up all manually and the front line moved this way or that. Old IL-2 have no front markers though so I think you had to look at the drawn in front marker on the website to know where the lines were. Everything was done manually. The other thing was everyone had to be trusted to tell the truth about his score.
