I agree and the third party campaigns have peaked my interest in flying again. I think the developers have the right priority, concentrating more on providing a decent FMB so the community who may have a more historical background, imagination, and flair to build the missions and campaigns. A mission/campaign builder in the development two or three years ago would have a hard time considering the state of the game engine they had to work with. There are still AI, and FMB problems etc, that need to be addressed in the Sequel so they can be applied to BOB campaigns and missions.
