Two new updates on Battle of Britain Game Hub

Storm of War news: Yes, Oleg has posted two updates on Storm of War on the 1C Maddox official website, and in addition to reporting these, Battle of Britain Game Hub has combed the forums for his subsequent 'questions and answer' posts to add essential detail and save you the time of going through all the threads yourself...

Battle of France/Dunkirk mission package: Whirlybird, Bader and Simon at the A2A Sims forum have announced a new Battle of France Mission Package for BOBII featuring:

- 60+ missions with flyable Bf109e, Bf110C, Hurricane Ia/b, Spit Ia/b, Ju87
- newly recreated more accurate Bf110C and Spit I models
- historically accurate May 1940 skins for all units in the package
- utilising BOBII 1:1 scale France, Channel and SE England map

Cheers

Heiny

Have been asked on another forum:

- are bombers flyable

no but the gunner positions can be manned

- are there missions for both both luftwaffe and raf

yes, all missions are flyable from both sides, and player difficulty is fully adjustable so that the player can control number and type of aircraft, altitude and skill of opponents

- are there french aircraft

no BOBII does not include french aircraft only RAF and LW, still this means 7 flyable aircraft types/variants

- cost of this add-on

free from BoB Developers Group! BOBII costs just $20USD if you don't have it.
