I thought so too.
I'd love to see how this looks in rainy weather. Those houses look so pretty, I can't imagine them offset by a grey/raininy backdrop.

Great shot.
Does anyone think that the houses should maybe look more industrial in the London area? By this I mean that the city exudes a certain warmth as those houses look as though they all have kent-peg-tile roofs.
Was this true of a 1940 London?
Although, even it was, wouldn't they all be dirt and discoloured from London's smog?
Wellum wrote of how dirty cities look from altitude, and one doesn't get this impression here.
Of course...WIP!

Though the dockyards layout looks different today, this Junkers Ju88 A-1 could be flying over the Port of Le Havre.

STORM OF WAR Battle for Moscow is not the correct name to me.

Germany never comes to moscow capital.

The correct name to me is:

STORM OF WAR Operation Barbarossa (Unternehmen Barbarossa)

It might not be the correct name to you, but it is correct.

'battle for' not 'battle in'. note the difference....

moscow was the objective....

So you also want to change the name of the Battle of Britain? Germany never invaded Britain either, just overflew and bombed it, as they overflew and bombed Moscow.

Barbarossa is the whole Operation, from Karelia to the Black Sea and the upcoming sim will not focus on that whole operation, but just focus on the Battle of Moscow.

See more here, for your information:

Yes the name is right, it was one of the turn points in the eastern conflict, much looking forward flying on the eastern front again!
