The potential of il2...
Posted: Thu Jul 19, 2007 5:33 pm
Just flying some small WWI missions I made in FMB. Amazing that il2 can transport you as far back as the 1914-18 airwar with a few good skins on the right planes! 
Used 4 Vs 4 J8A's at Ace setting with skins I downloaded from a website that hosts the WWI server on HL (sadly it always seems empty
)
Any thought i'd show some screenshots:
The merge:
The Hun:
Closing on my tail:
Bullets shatter the struts on my plane as the Hun tries to make sure of me...:
But he can't stop me closing on his wingman:
Now it's my turn to do the chasing!:
Closing in...:
Meanwhile, others fall victim to the British SE-5's:
Guns blazing, I pump round after round into the enemy machine to little effect:
Then I struck lucky, a pilot kill causing the plane to begin to spiral out of control:
Anyway, what I was thinking was that if others were interested, perhaps we could perhaps do a few WWI style missions(maybe when we're finished Goths) or another time in the week or after goths. Just an idea. Either way i'd advise you to download the skins from:

Maybe some of the skinners will be inspired to make some FI style
ones
