Wings Over Flanders Fields

[Rilo]

I can't imagine many flight sim fans wouldn't be aware of this (unless WWI ain't your thing), but just posting that Wings Over Flanders Fields (WOFF) was released last month, which is a successor to Over Flanders Fields (OFF). If you're not into flight sims, you probably won't be too excited by this, and if you like your sims more arcadey, it ain't gonna happen. For the rest of you...

Amazing WWI sim with a fantastic campaign, detailed pilot info, historically researched squadrons and pilots and just about everything. Honestly, if you're at all interested you can read for yourself. There's SO MUCH depth to this sim it's amazing.

Only drawback is that you need a copy of Combat Flight Simulator 3 (can get cheaply at amazon), as this sim is built on that engine. BUT... this isn't just a mod. The devs have built an amazing sim on top of, around, under, over, through...

Here's a preview dogfight vid some guy posted:

And here's a review from Rock, Paper, Shotgun:

I know flight sims are a bit of a niche, but here it is. For any of you who take the plunge...Happy hunting!

It's intriguing, but geez, a twelve year-old engine.

I know, but I can't stress enough how much they've done with it. Graphics-wise, it can't compete with Rise of Flight, though it's still quite pretty, but it's AI and campaign tear RoF to shreds.
