RBwar will be played on four custom maps: Alsace, Flanders, Marne and Verdun (a different map each week). You can download the custom maps from ww1aces.com. You can fly in RBWar without the custom maps, however, you would have a difficult time locating the targets without the custom maps.

4) No riding flamers - penalty of minus 30 points
5) No exiting the game except from stopped position on runway of your home aerodrome to restart new life by hitting esc/enter, or after death (pilot death or aa/mech death) to restart new life by hitting esc/enter, or in the last 60 seconds of the game - penalty of minus 20 points
6) Any targets destroyed by friendly actions (friendly fire, crashing into friendly target), the target points value will automatically be awarded to the enemy team
