What no German Campaign? That is not going to go well on the German market, but lets wait and see.

"Exciting Single-Player Campaign – The campaign thrusts the player into the middle of the battle. The player will join the British Air Force to fight the German forces and renegade pilots on his own side, or join the German Luftwaffe and take part in meticulously recreated historical battles."

Quite frankly that sounds very strange, not to say it sounds like fried BS but it's close. Not only that a german campaign branch is missing (for the time being?) but that "renegade pilots" thingy sounds a lot more gamey than I'm comfortable with. But then I'm a stickler for historical accuracy ...

I call fake.

Kidding. Great news, thanks.

Really? Had a publisher already announced the date?

I am sure that you would sell more if you offered a German collector's box.

That would be nice, but they didn't need to offer a collector's box at all - so they offer one, and you complain that they don't offer two.

I agree, and you don't have to be a stickler to think that sounds ridiculous. Are we seriously going to be shooting at other RAF pilots that have gone bad?
