OFF is really nice (if you have a PC that can run it at high settings). Very nice graphics (the best landscape if you fly low imo), sound is extremely immersive, it feels right to fly over a living battlefields. Absolutely recommended. The installation procedure is a chore however, you have to get some obscure VBA dll's and follow the instructions down to the dot of the i. I was close to giving up, still got it to run in the end, but it's not easy.

To Dowly: Just a few words how MAW is .. it's a big download and then I probably have to reinstall because of OFF, you know ...

Well, based on my limited experience with MAW and the stock CFS3, it's basically the same old CFS3 with the same campaign system etc. but only in mediterranean. Graphics & sounds have been updated, but not to the same quality as in OFF.

So you mean it's not as much of a breakthrough as OFF? Somehow that was my feeling when looking at the videos / screens .. still a nice mod of a much needed theatre. Kudos to these fine people!
