In fact, someone refresh my memory, what was the big tank battle in the Battle of Britian? This...

I do wish the smoke would blow in the wind a bit as well Phil. I think it would definitely be possible and I would bet it's in the game engine but not enabled yet.
I could see it being tied into the weather effects somewhere. When they get that going, then this will probably come with it.
Hmmm, I was going to say that I think you're right, but the heavy damage smoke (the one for the oil-refineries) looks like it's at a much steeper angle than the other smoke-plumes, so clearly something is amiss here. If the wind-element was taken into account, which would be awesome, one would assume the heavier smoke would be at a steeper angle still than the other smoke-plumes, which wouldn't be realistic. I hope it's looked into, but it's nothing major at present.

For a Tank Sim, it's not a bad Flight Sim Very negative and unnecessary quote from this Axel40 guy:  Primary reason for armoured elements in the Il-2 flight sim is for aircraft targets; better graphics make better simulation. Congratulations to Maddox Games for these excellent ground objects graphics!

I am sure they meant for the vehicles to be driveable at some point otherwise why the vehilce axis setup in controls section?

What would be the primary reason for them in a Battle of Britian scenario?

Congratulations to Maddox Games for these excellent ground objects graphics! Of course, but Barbarossa is primarly a ground offensive with air support, no ? the fact that these tanks are so nicely modeled is not a problem per se and would have been perfect if (or when) a Battle of France would have been set...now the primary objective of the sim,unreached till now,IMO, is to have a (very)good SP campaign and a historical recreation of the units and the(air)operations .
