Thanks for the correction.
I wonder if IL2 uses actual Luftwaffe scoring systems for awards? Of all the awards systems, it's the most mechanistic.
While it's a trivial matter, I like historical accuracy in awards structure. It would be nice to have both "point based" and "luck based" awards systems in place. For example, in 1944, a USAAF pilot should get the Air Medal for every confirmed kill and the Distinguished Flying Cross for every group of multiple kills or for 50 missions (or at the end of every campaign simulating a single tour of duty). In addition to that, there should also be a chance of getting higher level awards (Silver Star, Distinguished Service Cross, Medal of Honor) based on some algorithm that takes into account poor odds, personal risk, sacrifice, saving the lives of others, mission importance and year.
