Battle of Malta or Mediterranean - why not?

For those interested in the Defense of Malta in 1940, here is a link to the IL-2 movie "Faith, Hope, and Charity". Made in 2005-2007, there had to be a lot of workarounds for acft types not available in IL-2 and no real Malta map, etc. The movie is an epic fictional drama, "inspired" by historical facts. The movie is the longest ever made using IL-2 (at one hour in duration), yet was extremely well received at the time of release.

COD has virtually all of the Italian acft needed (and of course the RAF Gladiators) for this small 1940 early "front" of the larger Mediterranean theater. The Malta story of late 40 to early 41 could be told/played also, since the necessary Luftwaffe acft types are also available in COD. A Map of just Malta would do the trick for 1940, with the addition of Tunisia for early 1941 operations, while awaiting the much larger and encompassing Med Theater map and ships/aircraft needed for the 41-44 scenarios.

In the meantime, I offer "Faith, Hope, and Charity" for your possible enjoyment.
