Hi Oleg. I noticed that spitfire hasn't got propeller yet. Am I right? It's invisible :). I believe it's not made yet.

This was already answered by Oleg. Please read all his posts along these last 3 days.

I would suggest to newcomers into this thread, please take your time in reading and understanding all these posts carefully, so we can avoid to ask Oleg repeated questions already answered, and not to disturb him with repeated demands. :)

Probably best if this thread was locked.
Oleg is not going to respond in this one further.
If we are lucky we will have a NEW one tommorow.

I'm not sure where you are from, but one would easily see the difference between this in the terrain in Britain; at the start of july (the battle began on the 10 of july, so not in june ;) ) it would be a lot greener for starters and things would be getting browner by september as the grass started to wilt ;) I have read a lot on the Battle, and whilst there wouldn't be much in way of seasons, I suggest you read more on the battle to get a feel for changing weather conditions which would affect the terrain :D
I understand you :-) but I already have almost every book about the Battle of Britain myself, including the very thick british ones, lol. And have detailed weather reports for every day this year 1940.
I made a historical campaign in CFS3 using that data, and I plan to make it again in SOW BOB ;-)

I am from Germany btw.

Well, when Oleg was online his profile said he was looking at the news topic and then writing a PM, so fingers crossed he was asking that it be opened so he can include an update :D

PS and yes I know it was bad weather in the beginning. Not enough though to make the leafs red ;-)

Ok, no probs ;) I understand how my reference about changing seasons could be misinterpreted. I also know that the German (I can't spell the German) Luftshlact um England (?) I think began a bit earlier than RAF records and continued into the spring of 1941 ;) in this case changing seasons could be included and we'd get a longer campaign :-P

However, I think that changing terrain due to weather and natural/unnatural disasters would be extremely hard to model, but I'll leave that for oleg to comment on at somepoint :D

No LOL, but it might have made the terrain look greener...

regardless, we all know creating alternate history is very popular in war simulation and IL2. At some point throughout the lifespan of BoB people are going to want to have all seasons and conditions at their disposal.

"Luftschlacht", hehe. But you are right: we sometimes include the Blitz in our interpretation of the campaign. However, if we set Hitlers goal of Operation Sealion as a benchmark for interpretation, we agree that the "Battle of Britain" should be set from June (or May) up to September, when Hitler "postponed" Sealion. That would defenitly be only the summer season then.
