Hi Kira,

That's a valid point.

But I suspect that a huge percentage of those who have bought il2 do not build missions. We on this forum perhaps do not represent the average 'flier'.

From a commercial perspective, maybe it's better that such missions are incorporated within the purchased product ? The buyer would then have the available option to launch 'Barge Bombing' missions without having to create them.

Several friends of mine own il2 but they would never consider building missions.

you don´t have to build missions by yourself, somewhere in the net there is someone
who has the ability and the intention to build the mission you would like.
you just have to download the finished product and maybe send a thanks to the builder.

Yes, but most buyers would not IMO consider that option. All missions and options would be flown only from the purchased disc.

We on this board with our experience and knowledge perhaps only represent but a small percentage of all who will purchase BoB SoW.

Perhaps there should be maps included that have Invasion Barges?

I agree that including more missions in the initial release (eg. from beta testers) or bundled with the first few patches would be a very good idea.

+1 on the barges also. I've often wondered... Oleg is making quite a few vehicles and was working on their AI etc. There were also pre-renders of "beached defense" variants of the Lysander (with bomblets or 20mm). It makes one wonder...
