I got my copy here in Ottawa last night. Took forever to install...2 GB! The funny thing is I pre-ordered mine, my friend did not and he received his before me! That's Canada Post for you I guess... Awesome game. Very happy it arrived before Christmas.

Now that I have your attention, here's the deal. I've been playing a few games against my regular opponent and it seems that aircraft are very powerful and flak guns don't seem to help. Consider our current game, my opponent chose 17 (yes 17) :eek: German early war 37mm flak vehicles. I chose a Yak-9 (I think) with rockets. Not only did my aircraft brave the potential volley of flak, he managed to destroy 4 AA vehicles on the first pass. I thought that he would have been intimidated by the amount of on-board AA guns and not return, but no....next turn he returned to destroy another 3 or 4 vehicles with rockets! Does this seem fair / realistic / normal? My opponent chose a JU-87G (Stuka) which has been very effective against my defences. It has so far destroyed 2 out of 3 half tracks that were armed with quad .50 cal MGs. Other threads seem to have suggested that aircraft are not that great, but my experience seems to suggest otherwise. Opinions?
