    Default IL2 Sturmovik

    Alright, so being a flight simmer, I'm naturally interested in IL2 Sturmovik. I just had a question for the local simmers who have already bought the game - which packs should I buy? The original IL2, of course, but out of the Forgotten Battles, Forgotten Battles Ace Expansion Pack, Pacific Fighters, Pe-2 add-on, Manchuria and 1946, which ones are best to get?

    Thanks in advance.

    IL-2 1946 is a compilation of all of the IL-2 expansions and the original game. That's the only thing you need to buy.

    Guess how much it was on Steam for the entire combo pack? $9.99. Awesome.

    I'm loving the Ta-183. FIREPOWER at its finest.

    KI-84 is the plane of choice.

    I disagree. My personaly favorite is the MiG

    I'm a sucker for Soviet fighter jets.

    I have to go with the Me-109 series as a start - it's a good sturdy little plane. Later on, the Focke-Wulf Ta 152 is my beauty of choice among the "realistic" aircraft. The Focke-Wulf Ta 183 packs a wicked punch, even if it isn't the prettiest of birds. That honour would have to go to the Horten Ho-IX.

    The scenario, guessing from the title, is the Eastern Front, right? Because I´m still looking for a worthy sucessor to Aces over Europe (Western Front, April 1944 - May 1945).

    Eastern Front, Manchuria, and the Pacific. Combat Flight Simulator 3 is over the Western Front, but it's not as good as Sturmovik.
