Jager 7 Posted August 22, 2000 Share Posted August 22, 2000 Just got this from a friend of mine....I checked the link and it is good. "60 years ago this summer the Royal Air Force stood alone against the superior numbers of Germany's Luftwaffe in one of history's greatest air battles-the Battle of Britain. To commemorate the 60th anniversary of the Battle of Britain (July 10-October 31, 1940), the Royal Air Force has constructed a Web site for military history buffs. The site offers the complete Fighter Command Operational Diaries, published in full for the first time and placed online day-by-day over the actual period of the battle. Additional content includes overviews of all the major aircraft involved, and information on commanders, units and stations. <http://www.raf.mod.uk/bob1940/bobhome.html <http://www.raf.mod.uk/bob1940/bobhome.html> >" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatAWilson Posted August 22, 2000 Share Posted August 22, 2000 If it has a reasonably dynamic campaign structure I'm all over it. If it's canned missions I don wan no part uf it. I still play Red Baron II because every time you fly anything can happen. Too many games are more like puzzles than simulations. RB shares one thing with CM: good real life decisions (like let's not attack those 6 fighters when there are only two of us) are rewarded and stupidity is often final. Hopefully BoB will be similar.

Wesreidau Posted August 22, 2000 Share Posted August 22, 2000 Jager, whats the URL of the site please? I`ve been a fanatic BoB fan for 25 years, played the Talonsoft game to death and looking forward to Rowan`s new strategy game of BoB too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Formerly Babra Posted August 23, 2000 Share Posted August 23, 2000 Okay, the "Radio 1940" thing is just the coolest thing ever! ------------------ Sounds like 100% weapons-grade bolonium to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fionn Posted August 23, 2000 Share Posted August 23, 2000 "If it has a reasonably dynamic campaign structure I'm all over it. If it's canned missions I don wan no part uf it. " Hmm, Pat, the old saw that one should read the message one is replying to comes to mind reading your reply. I SERIOUSLY doubt that a historical website is going to have a "dynamic campaign structure". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. W W Posted August 23, 2000 Share Posted August 23, 2000 Jager 7: Thanks very much, what an incredible bit of history. Fionn: LMFAO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
