Russian martial music would have been more appropriate than American Big Band, but what the hell. If it ships with a P-47 Thunderbolt, I'm getting it! Doubt it, though.

The Battle of Stalingrad took place from August 1942 to February '43. The VVS didn't receive the P-47 until 1944.

The 'skins' have swastikas made by other players.. the stock game didn't have any swastikas at all.
I think it is not allowed to be distributed in Germany or Russia with swastikas.. I had the game from the start, none of the German aircraft had swastikas on them until people started making skins.

But just like IL2, the user made skin magic men make better skins than stock anyway smile
I suspect in BoS it will be similar.

How about putting this in the appropriate forum? Not that I'm not interested in this game but this is not where this belongs. Yes, I can be a killjoy at times. smile

I can understand it's in here because the same company that brought us RoF will be doing this one, but where is the appropriate forum? Seriously it could be a subforum in Il-2 until it warrants it's own discussion room, but right now it doesn't have a home.

The background music was the World War Two era tune "Coming In On A Wing and A Prayer"...probably appropriate for BOS at this stage of development. wink
