The Forger looks to be turning away from a firing Spruance class.

No, that is the sustainer motor. The AGM-84 also had an impulse rocket engine to get it up to speed, and away from the launching platform. I think the ones tested in bomber drops only had a sustainer motor as they dropped from aircraft rather than be launched by them. I do not think those types were ever fielded in service.

I hope we can edit that water colour, though still an improvement over the old one.

Snow on mountains is convincing, clouds less so and I still stand by what I said about whater.
Still looks nice.

Oh, I'm sure I'll be using the clouds from NATO4 pack. Check the screenshot thread, I posted some pics a few days ago. Agree with you on the water issue.

Aye, Arthur!
I use that too... great mod, really.

Makes me wonder why TK doesn't make it part of the engine.
You know, you give the guys a free copy of each game/dlc you release and in exchange they keep pumpin'out great stuff.
