Maybe they're trying to make him look like the guy that played "The black falcon" in Flyboys? whoever that was.
I really really need an update on the release date.
I've been faking WW1 with IL2 latley...for me there is nothing
like the turn and burn DF of WW1. I love IL2 also but its a different feeling.

Hint: ex public school boys get with the program
Don't forget battledress for the little guys please for strafing purposes. And a bit of a limp what with trenchfoot and hardtack. Plus did they even have perssonnel carriers perrsonel carriers trucks. Ok bicycles then with some little guys riding crossbar and the rest walking. Limping.

SimHQ have no doubt SoW will be completed, but question whether the dev team in the office next door, in the same building under the same software development umbrella company will manage to complete.
My point being, can we really be 100% sure SoW will be completed given the initial release for it was 2005. If SoW can have a forum with less posts in it than this thread, than surely there is justification for a KotS forum. I think KotS needs its own forum due to the regular updates and interest in this sim. As for which sim will actually see the light of day...my money is on BOB SOW as its engine should be much farther advanced considering it has been in varying degrees of development for atleast 4 years. Where as the Kots engine has only been in development for a few months and may hit an unforseen wall. ~Salute~ Chivas

well - we've seen some interesting developement work and "screen shots" from KotS and so it looks very promising.
I know some of you have been around the sim world more than I have and so are more familiar with promising looking projects that fizzled none the less....
But Viks has stated that work is progressing well so I look foreward to it as much as I anticipate the SoW projects.
I 'spose the leg up that Oleg has is the successful base that Il2 - '46 has afforded him. But I like what the GT groups is doing and they are earnest with their updates.
Either way - the next year or so are going to be topflight for us flight simmers - thats a fact.

Is this dead in the water and sinking this new sim?
Was the release date for the end of 2006?

The release date changed many months ago to the end of 2007.  Continuous development updates by GT each week have displayed the on-going build process for this project. Btw, this week's update will be delayed till tomorrow (Friday the 9th), due to a holiday today in Russia. Stay tuned WTornado.
