Actually after looking closer I think the plane in the background is an Il-2.

If only there was an announcement

I wanna know when I'll be able to fly these beauties !

Wierd isn't it that we knew SoW as Storm of War(before it changed) but no one knows (in the replies so-far) what it is currently called?

So where did BoM come from?

Pretty sure it was first seen at that trade show just before CloD's release. The one where members of the public were invited to try it out on computers that "didn't have enough ram". B6 made ention of it too I think.

As I said in a earlier post in this thread, the name was "Battle for Moscow". My understanding was the Battle "for" Moscow was a russian third party addon for the new IL-2 engine introduced at the Russian trade show, as already mentioned by Feathered. The Sequel had always been rumoured to be "the Med", but I believe the delays forced the developers to integrate the russian third party group into the development so they could release a Sequel as soon as possible for the much needed cash flow. The new name will most likely be in the pending "official announcement". I doubt the name will continue to be the "Battle for Moscow", as some of the screenshots appear to show the Stalingrad area, which suggests a broader area than the battle around "Moscow".
