I've gotten suckered into buying collections of obsolete games too.

You want IL2:1946 from a bargain bin ($10 or less) and then all the patches to get to what level you will play. At every successful patch, make a backup and keep the backups that let you run the mods you want.

If you want to play online with many others, that is what you need.

This. Never, ever, f****** buy this gem from Steam, EVER. At least from GoG you OWN it and can play with it WHENEVER you want to.
