il-2'46 (+xN mod's) - Onwards to Stalingrad! (WIP)

[Sokol1]

 

From SimHQ:

 

 

 

I have now finished building all the 45 missions, and is about to playtest them all, so I feel confident enough to show this campaign as a WIP:

 

 

The inspiration came of course from Cyberolas absolutely AMAZING repaints of the stock Stalingrad Map. And from the fact that Okevnas great Donbass map hasn't been used as much as I think it deserves to be. And that these two maps together makes it possible to cover almost all of the German Summer Offensive and the ensuing battle for Stalingrad. The campaign starts in May 1942, with the Soviet counter-offensive outside Charkov, and goes all the way to January 1943, when the fate of the surrounded German 6th army was finally sealed.

In this campaign you are a Luftwaffe fighter pilot, flying the Bf 109G. In one mission though, you get to fly the Fi 156 and in another one the He 111 - That is the finale: "Last flight from Pitomnik", January 19, 1943.

 

The campaign has been built with HSFX 7.3, for 4.12, with taxi-to-take off and the other goodies. (I'm sorry but I still don't have a working C.U.P. install, so I don't know if you will be able to play "Onwards to Stalingrad!" using that mod pack.)

 

As this is quite a big campaign, the play-testing will take some time, but I hope to have "Onwards to Stalingrad!" ready at - say - Christmas time  

 

Thanks for looking!
