Channel map would be useful not only for BoB, but rather for a previously unexplored 1941-43 time frame. When brits first encountered the Fw-190, or the appearance of more advanced german bombers, like Do-217, or later He-111 variants. Also the Fw-190G raids, and the Typhoons that countered this threat. I think its much more interesting than BoB itself.

Agreed. The English Channel/SE England taking in a triangle between Dunkirk, Dieppe & London is one of the critical maps for WW2 aerial operations. In one form or another, that area saw constant aerial action from 1939-45. While the Battle of Britain gets all the attention, there were many other important air operations in the area from 1939-45.

I asked for BoB Map years ago and was told (true or not) due to some kind of agreement between IL2 1946 and Cliffs of Dover (at that time) any such map would not be made available in the official IL2 1946 game.

So unless the agreement has expired "officially" its not/is possible now ??

Once upon a time, there were prohibitions on BoB or Korean War content.

But, since CloD has come and gone, and 1c has sold the IL2 franchise to 777 Studios, IIRC, there are no longer any restrictions.
