Yeah, I spend much too much time browsing around. It's an amazing product in itself - especially for a freebie - and the inclusion of the community features, and the community itself, make it even cooler.

Last night I found the (rather low-res but visible) U-boat pens and bunkers at Lorient all by myself, and felt really proud. Great fun.
