Hello everybody,


We're in the second half of September and this means that the next update 3.201 isn't far away. This one will be massive and will bring a lot of new content as well. Three player controllable aircraft, AI bomber, new AI ground vehicles and of course, the new map - Rheinland. This map tops the records once again: 130 000 square kilometers of reachable terrain (401 x 324 km), 176 000 square kilometers total size (461 x 384 km), 225 cities and towns - a record number of big cities, 70 airfields - 67 of them have historically correct layout recreated using archive documents. For increased detail and historical accuracy, for the first time, we have used 4 airfield types on the same map - with concrete, metal, and unpaved runways and airstrips without runways.

Woo hoo!!
Very excited about this. The western Europe map sounds epic and having the full stable of allied planes available gives us an embarrassment of riches.
Let's see how my PC handles the increased draw distance.

there is also another flyable to be released as well - hopefully another mark of Spitfire.
