Battle of Britian?
« on: January 15, 2018, 01:24:15 PM »

Just finished watching the movie Dunkirk as was wondering what are the best Battle of Britain campaigns (single player or coop) for HSFX and are there any that try and duplicate the Dunkirk  rescue?

Try these.  They don't state that they are specifically for HSFX however...

I just watched Dunkirk over the weekend and I was disappointed with the movie overall.  The Spitfire segments were pretty cool and well done (reminded me of the BoB movie) but from a soldiers' point of view IMHO the movie didn't capture the overall massive scope and impact of Dunkirk from a purely personnel point of view (personnel not personal).  400,000 troops involved and despite what CGI can do (i.e. battle scenes in LOTR) the movie failed to impress on the viewer the magnitude of the operation.  The number of troops (and the number of boats) involved were massive and yet the movie fails to get that across.  I get that the director wanted to focus on three "personal" stories but I think overall it kinda missed the mark.  I seem to remember a British movie with John Mills which IIRC did a better job in that regard (albeit in 1950s).
