If you liked Wings of Prey you will love IL-2 Battle of Stalingrad. In fact, in single player mode BoS reminds me most of Wings of Prey more than any other flight game (I really don't like BoS because of that hahaha). BoS offers offline single player and online multi-player game play and you will need a twisty joystick as BoS doesn't offer mouse fly.

Dogfighting is what you do "after" you drop your bombs and blow something up!

I think BOS is more challenging though. It is a shame about WoP because it could have been very good. I don't understand why so many modern sim developers want to reinvent the wheel... Follow the IL2 model minus all the giveaways and you still have a great formula.


Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can.

BoS is far more challenging than either WoP or WT which is the "upgrade" to WoP.
