Historical accuracy is really important to many of us and fictional effects however well intentioned will spoil the overall impact of the title.

As i said yet, i totally agree with this. I'm french and my father and his family were on the road from the north to the south-west of the country in June 40. He was almost 11 and saw the Stukas' machine gunning. He almost became a fighter pilot at the end of the war, as he was near 16. Hopefully he just became civilian pilot.
... Not just a game ...
