Il2-1946 gripe

My gripe is if I fly in the USAAF you can't fly a P-38 or P-51 till 44-45.

And to make matters worse you spawn in the air.
No takeoff

USMC is the same. You can't get a Corsair till 44-45

And it's all carrier. No jungle airstrips.

Funny thing is they have a " Black Sheep " squadron.

Is there anyway to fix this ?

heck... feel free to voice a thought or opinion.

You wanna get some custom built campaigns. ->http://mission4today.com/

maybe think about dcg ->http://www.lowengrin.com/news.php

or go along the route of modifying your IL2 ...theres a vast amount of mods going about at the moment. that really add immersion to the game,hell theres a one click installer that adds most of them in one go.

Thx mates

I checked out the links and nothing there for me.

The things I posted are what I want to do.

I guess I'm out of luck.

I'll crash more than a plane if I go pokeing around with those files which ever they are.

DCG gives you alot of dynamic campaigns to fly. USAAF, starts from an airfield, USN still starts from carrier on most campaigns I think.

Get DCG, that's my advice.

Yep DCG is pretty configurable!
I started an offline campaign over Normandy in a P38J in late 43 about 18 months ago - needless to say I fly 109s almost exclusively and got killed within the first 10 missions! - Campaign over, back to blue!
My offline campaign is currently Invasion of Poland, about 50+ missions into it using the modded 109E1.
