I bought the pre=order of Battle of Bodenplatte quite a while ago...it shows as being key activated on my account...but is this a campaign like Kuban or something? I thought it would have a discreet title page to play. Where do I find it to play? Just a bit confused...I can see my game is on 4.001b.

Thanks.

Salutations,

 

What we received was the Rhineland map and period Aircraft.

 

There are no included Scripted Campaigns, missions or a Career Campaign ...… yet. 😐

You are correct... Battle Of Rheinland career. 😮

Thanks...so within the "Battle of Rhineland Career" we will find the famous "last stand" of the Luftwaffe?

We have no idea. The module was just released yesterday. 😐

Unfortunately as it seems no, or not yet. My little gripe with the career: it seems all mission types and parameters are ported from the east front careers, this is especially visible in the flight alititudes and squadron/group compositions.

I flew the respective units, for example 478th (blue noses at Asch), or JG11 or JG3 etc respectively on Jan 1st 1945, and instead of getting at least similar missions, I got completely random "attack enemy colon" or "enemy concentration at crossroads" etc, not even a fighter sweep. Asch was not even attacked that day, neither did any of the german missions reflect on the events of Jan 1st.

I hope they will adjust the Rheinland career to reflect its historic parameters more, like this it is simply a random mission generator with all wrong paramters (except for map and aircraft) progressing along a somewhat historical frontline.

The missions imo do not need to be 100% recreations when such historic events occured, but at least should reflect the events and mission types of such outstanding days (especially if you name the title after them). My 2 cents.
