Just a quick note to say thank you for the hard work all.

I really appreciate all the trouble for some new content of our favorite game. Can't wait to play it

[SAS~Poltava]

Thanks for the appreciation. But I must mention Edc and WillyP here, who has both made a important efforts in converting this huge campaign to BAT!

There is still a lot to do, but I hope to have YOT ready when the next update of BAT comes out!

I'm just someone else wanting to say how much I'm looking forward to playing through this.
It's looking great.

The Operation Taifun segment is finished! This part of the campaign portrays what was the climax of the German invasion of Russian in 1941, namely the push for Moscow, starting in early October and ending with the near rout of the German attackers in December. You will protect and help the ground forces as they push closer and closer to the Soviet capital, performing a variety of fighter sweeps, escorts and patrols. You will also experience the fatal over-stretching of the Luftwaffe, with autumn changing into a very cold winter, and your unit slowly being whittled away until you only have one flying 109 left. The map used is (of course) the tremendous "Battle for Moscow" by Okevnas.

This segment has been converted by Edc - again! Thanks for a superb job!

Some screenies:









This means that all the basic converting to BAT has now been done. Slowly but surely we are getting there... And mainly thanks to Edc and Willyp!

Thanks for looking!

This is an epic update for the game! THX to all involved, and especially to you Poltava who initiated the campaign at first long time ago!

[SAS~Poltava]

Good news and bad news. (Or good news and good news!)

1.) The beta version is finished and I hope to send it to the playtesters later today!
2.) I have (after consulting edc1/stan) decided to limit the campaign to 1937-1941, i.e. the campaign ends with the failed German offensive against Moscow, Operation Taifun. This means that 1942 and the Stalingrad campaign will be left out of it. The reason is that 132 missions is quite enough for a single campaign, AND that I instead hope to perhaps use the Stalingrad campaign (which is big, 45 missions) as a cornerstone to a sequel, "Years of Triumph", portraying the air war 1942-43.

So: the beta, 132 missions long, will today reach the playtesters.

If there is someone who wants to lend a hand here, and playtest "Years of Struggle" for BAT, just PM me! (Even a cursory play test is a help here, believe me!)

All the best

Flying H! As you volunteered to playtest: I will PM you later today with a link. The beta is ready! 

[Flying H]

Ok

[JonRedcorn]

I'd be willing to test them out.

[SAS~Poltava]

I'd be willing to test them out.

Jon, you have mail! 

[Flying H]

Will take me a few days to get around the task as I´m moving house at the moment. Sorry for that. I´ll pick it up as soon as possible, though! Cheers and thanks for your effort.

[David Prosser]

OK, I'm up for a lark. I'll play-test it if you want.

cheers
