Still fun though.
There are lots of aircraft to choose from for ground attack. Everything from the "heavy" bombers of the day (Handley Page and Gotha) to the two seaters, to bombed up single seaters. Overall my favorite is the Bristol Fighter. It's fast, can carry a good load out, and can often fight it's way out of trouble if your escorts get caught up elsewhere.
I have tried an offline campaign or two, but just like every other sim I get quicly bored offline. I am not one to be an honest judge of offline, as I am very biased about it. I don't like it in any flight sim.
Get the free trial and give it a go. It is fun, but like every other combat flight sim that has ever been made, it has it's issues.
I will say that stick time in the old kites will improve your WW2 flying. 1940's planes are so easy.

Have you tried the Pat Wilson Campaign Generator? Its similar to DCG for IL2.
I was getting very bored with the offline campaings availible for RoF, but using PWCG makes things much more interesting. Like getting jumped by 11 Nieuports 11's in my Eindecker interesting.
