This DGen addon contains a RAF (2nd Tactical Air Force), USAAF (9th Air Force) and Luftwaffe (Luftflotte 3 in the West) fighter-bomber campaign. I cannot guarantee this addon will function correctly any other installation. Of Forgotten Battles (FB), Ace Expansion Pack (AEP) and Pacific Fighters (PF) patched to version 4.04m. This addon is developed on a clean installation of the IL2 Sturmovik Series Complete Edition. Fourth, there were a couple of scripted add-ons a few years ago that you might find on e-bay: Combat Over Europe and Ace's Campaigns by CombatPlanes.įinally, you might try Ian Boys' NW Europe map DGen campaign.
Third, look for user-made scripted campaigns that use these maps. First, Battle Over Europe is fairly inexpensive - I got it a few years ago from for $15 USD, and that included the shipping from England! Second, DCG will generate USAAF missions on the Normandy, Ardennes, Berlin, and other maps. so you can see they have influence over the content, at least over what campaigns were included in expansion and upgrades after Forgotten Battles.Īnyhow, there are a few options for you. Incidently, RRG went on to lead the Pacific Fighters, Pe-2, Sturmoviks Over Manchuria, and '46 projects. Starshoy also wrote most of the dynamic campaigns that shipped with the series, so you can see where Starshoy and RRG had a vested interest in not giving away 'Western Europe' campaigns for free.
The DGen campaigns in BOE were written by the same person, Starshoy, who who created the campaign generator used in the Forgotten Battles series. Thus, the maps were no longer 'exclusive' to the BOE product and they had to rely on the DGen campaigns and custom skins that it included to generate sales. However, to get the maps into the game, RRG had to give them up to 1C:MG for official inclusion into the game.
In the time period after Forgotten Battles and before Ace's Expansion Pack, RRG built the Normandy and Ardennes maps, plus various American ground vehicles, for the BOE project. This is partially because of the the history of when various planes and maps were introduced into the series, and mostly because of a third-party, semi-official add-on titled Battle Over Europe.īattle Over Europe was the first partnership project between 1C:Maddox Games and Russian Rocket Group. There are no USAAF or RAF campaign templates for Europe included with the game.
