Let me stress again, I have BoB 2 WOV. It is a great sim, I even own the original Rowan's incarnation.
But compared to IL2 it is just not quite there and this is because it is not a flight simulator but a massive strategic simulation of the Battle of Britain that allows you to fly into the very heart of the action.
It is great, I fly it alot but no, it is no Il2, if you have ever dropped down low over the countryside you will know what I mean.
And so using the Merlin Engine will not make a better sim than SOW. It might make a better sim than BoB2 WOV. And yes I will buy it when it comes out as well.
But then I like anything that says Joystick required
