Capt. Winters,

I released The Balkans Project for you this morning. There are 250 missions and 12 campaigns in the package, so it should keep you busy for a while. Also, HouseHobbit, Led Zeppelin, and others of course have my full permission to use the mission descriptions to make an equivalent for CFS3 if you so desire.

"Welcome to The Balkans Project campaigns package! This package contains twelve campaigns and a total of some two hundred and fifty missions which center around the experiences of the Italians, Greeks, Germans, and the British (both the Fleet Air Arm and the Royal Air Force) during the period of conflict in the Balkan Theatre. The period of conflict ranges primarily from 28 October, 1940 up until 30 May, 1941. However, the campaign involving the Fleet Air Arm begins in early September, 1940.

This campaign is a conglomeration of several campaign packages I have released covering various areas of the Balkan conflict, combined with about sixty-five missions (approximately one quarter of the included missions) that are brand-new. The original inspiration for this package came from three sources: The “Hellas” campaign, originally at Simviation, several of the original missions from the Groundcrew “Swordfish” campaign, and the Gladiator campaign by Don Pyers. Beyond that, all of the other German, Italian, Greek, and a good portion of the British missions were created by me, along with most of the GSL scenery; the airfields excluded, of course.

These missions, for the most part (excluding the semi-fictional “Hellas” campaign, and certain missions in the Fleet Air Arm campaign) are historical or historically-based, with certain liberties being taken to combine raids for the sake of brevity. The three primary sources for this effort are “Going Solo,” by Roald Dahl, “Air War for Yugoslavia, Greece, and Crete, 1940-41” by Christopher Shores, Brian Cull, and Nicola Malizia, and “Courage Alone, The Italian Air Force 1940-1943” by Chris Dunning."

Two of the campaigns have a pretty strong focus on "Pat" Pattle as well...:encouragement:
 
Thanks very much, getting them downloaded..

Covered up right now with projects, But I can see this being built later for CFS3.

Hi Andrew,

Wow, a massive effort indeed. I'll have to get cfs2 installed again! :encouragement:

The Roald Dahl book was a cracking read, loved the naked joggers and other eccentric passengers on the liner taking him to East Africa!

Cheers,

Clive

Pat and Capt. Winters,

I would highly recommend that you download the installers again if you already have, because there are about a dozen corrections that needed fixing between the three packages. Turns out I really c*cked up the original release. :banghead:
