I have to say that the Career mode is damn nice. It brings back memories from the old Amiga times when i played "Wings"

Also, some of the planes are insane to fly. I am all over the place flying a paper kite in a storm lol.
One thing's for sure. The pilots in WWI had some big balls.

Try out the training missions in RoF .. and put ON the captioning option for them, otherwise you wont know what to do at exactly the right moment.

IMHO: all the RoF training missions need to be re-done.

Otherwise, go for it.

i bought a couple of planes for 12 euro and got a couple presents one form andy west and play it more than clod

clod crashes too much though rof is more demanding on hardware

When you setup the joystick response for each plane transpose the elevator curve below x axis. i.e. when your stick is in the netural position some downward elevator is always applied. Out of the box almost all of the planes climb without any stick input - apparently a feature of WW1 planes.


I love this game but it is a real challenge going between genres. The radial engine planes are a nightmare to control without a good amount of practice and unfortunately are the best TnB planes in the game. I also find BnZ really difficult in this game due to the lack of fire power.

I really enjoy this game as an offline addition and i think they have done a fantastic job on the atmosphere of the Somme. Would recommend to anyone

I think you're talking about "rotary" engines.

I agree BnZ is really difficult since the limits in fire power and low speeds.
Still it's difficult to ambush the other players so tipical TnB planes have an advantage, since altitude is need for defensive purpose only because of the limits above.
