Not too worry, we all move on and change direction in life.
I will miss any new campaigns from you , your detailing is astounding, just started 'Legion Condor' again , the flight over Berlin at night, all the streetlights and then the floodlit rally are simply a masterpiece.
Having built a few missions I know only too well the effort and time needed for such work.

Just remains to thank you for all the hours of enjoyment you have given me and so many others , thanks mate!

And yes , a brilliant idea putting what you have made up at Axis and Allies, it will be a pleasure to fly these last few missions .

(just in case you do find time for the sim in the future , it's easy to patch to 4.10 then DBW then Montys stuff, lots of great changes)

Well thank you most kindly, PP. I've always appreciated your feedback throughout the years. I'm glad and frankly amazed you're going back to Legion Condor again. I actually started revising it a year ago but again, it never went anywhere. With Rudi Jaeger's great skins and the increase in biplanes in IL2 it could've been a lot of fun.

Anyway, just today I was thinking of briefings from Jedermann in Stalingrad - I think I have the first line of dialogue already - so perhaps we'll see Willi ride again. No promises though. If I have learnt anything in these past few years, it's that.

Many thanks to you, and all the...hold on a second...62,575 downloads at Mission4Today (who have always graciously hosted my work).
That kind of response has made the whole thing so worth it, especially when I got reviews and emails from players. I know that ours is such a tiny corner of the internet, but it really was fun providing stuff that was so eagerly anticipated then enjoyed by the community. It's just a shame that it has all petered out for me.
Despite the massive strides achieved by the modders, many of which  I deem absolutely indispensable to IL2, the fact of modding was what killed it for me. This Tunisia campaign was developed through several map versions (actual and anticipated) plus numerous changes in objects, flyables, loadouts, AI. This is not to blame anyone as the achievements were definitely worthwhile, but each time they robbed me of a little momentum in a hobby that was already palling slightly for me anyway.

I am definitely looking forward to the new version to be released in early Q2 next year - one version to rule them all is what I'm looking forward to. Plus, all going well, I finally get the chance to take Willi Jedermann East.
