Well, we're hoping it's as good as the hype too. And we made it!


Seriously, it's pretty good in the BETA testing I've been doing.

I just added a missing weapon. The 250lb parachute bomb. I already had the smaller 23 lb parafrag bomb in the game but neglected to include the larger one.

I've been reading "Fire in the Sky" which is all about the South Pacific struggle. This particular bomb was hated by the Japanese airfield personnel.

It was also used effectively against shipping and since we don't have the ability to do skip bombing attacks in EAW, the 250lb para bomb is the next best thing.

Wait until you try the 75mm cannon in conjunction with the parabombs. What a mess.

Another nice feature is that the airfields change at different points in the game time line. This simulates the Allies ability to improve the primitive fields as they captured them.

We have to wait for the release of 1.28a which includes all the necessary modifications for SPAW to work.

It won't be too long a wait.

It all sounds Great to me.

What about a Central Pacific Campaing that would end with the Air war over Japan. Now that would be fun as well.

What happen to the Chinese Front 1937 campaign that I read was in the working?


Thank you!

I don't know about the China Front campaign but now that we have a full set of carriers and all the other bits and pieces we might be able to revive CAW.

That would just be great. Please if possible do build it. I would appreciate it very much!

It would only enhance this flight Simulator!


Thank you!
