The area that really lends itself to the Il-2 engine is the CBI and SWPA, but the maps weren't there, or were poorly made (roads all over NG, etc). Also, the AI for the SWPA bombers of "Kenney's Kids" is awful, and has actually been intentionally ruined by recent patches. Bombers won't ever fly below 140m---B-25 and A-20 strafers that should come home with palm fronds stuck in them from flying so low.

Sigh.
Hmmm sorry to go OT, but you know the latest versions and patches offer a Burma, Manchuria and Kholkin-Gol map? Burma is very nice IMO.

To the OP, you have a great machine might as well use it...you won't regret it. Why tater himself is working on fixing the campaign layers, and the IJN and IJA plane loadouts as well. Not to forget the other great modders.
