Just got back from holiday and realized ED has finally released the (alpha/early access) of the WW2 Normandy map!

I like it. A lot! Finally I don't have to use the old Black Sea/Caucasus for WW2 scenarios anymore.

IFR: I follow roads. And rivers. And train tracks. And forests. Where's my GPS?!

Bombs away!

Missed that one

Feuer frei!

And back home. Which is...somewhere...over there...I'm sure.

It looks really good, thanks for the screenshots! I like the idea of not flying WWII stuff in the Crimea, and I hope some good missions are built for it. I do get a little tired of ED's eternal alpha status on stuff, though.

That deuce and a half truck looks great. They didn't change a thing on those trucks for ages if at all. I drove a couple that looked just like that screenshot when I was in the Army in the late 80s. smile


The issue is not p*ssy. The issue is monkey.
