ok, yes, "Pauke, Pauke" is when the pilot have a visual contact with enemy. and horrido when the pilot have a victory, instead of said Hei Hitler, they say horrido (is like 'anti nazi' protest and more saying "i do this for my country, not for a crazzy motherf###")
The British don't said "Hooray! Got him!", They said "Tally-Ho",
please correct me.

Tally Ho is a hunting cry. It wouldn't be used to signal a victory, rather it would be called on sighting the enemy.

it's been mentioned in some form or another in here before:

prototype testing:

for instance 19 squadron RAF was the first squadron to get cannon armed Spitfires. They were so disliked(due to the cannons jamming all the time) that eventually they requested and got their machine gun armed Spits back.

I'm wondering if this could be shown/reflected in a campaign?

second example; according to Alfred Price's The Hardest Day there was at least one Hurricane which had a 20mm slung under the wing. Could something like this be developed as a 'special mission'?

And secondly the end of the battle saw the beginning of the Blitz. maybe a little night time hunting with a Beaufighter, or the early attempts with Spits and Hurries?

and finally, athought about an older sim which also had a lot of mods made. European Airwar.

One of the commands you could add in there was extra squads =* with the * being a number up to 5. I'm wondering if something like this will be possible in SOW as compared to Il2 this might actually show reinforcements heading in to attack the enemy....

About the Beaufighter: I think Oleg said that it wouldn't be flyable, but I'm not entirely sure.
