I am Allied.

Just wondering if there would be any interest in an AAR for the final months of the war? Very few games get to this stage and it may or may not be of interest to people? Happy to do one if there is a demand, but conscious that otherwise it would just be a bit self indulgent and there is other stuff I can do with my time.

If this gets no response that is fine, as I say it is whether anyone wants to get this perspective.

I tried out the Downfall scenario back when the game came out and was not skilled enough in aerial warfare to crack the Japanese defences without heavy losses. 10 years and several patches on, it would be interesting to see how you approach the problem and the results. What scenario/mod are you playing? Ironman? Stock Scenario 1 on a hard setting?

Here is a graphic you can use to go with your AAR title:

Always look forward to more Flashman adventures.

BTW, that is a stunning disguise for Flashman. The last time we met him, he was engineering his escape from Singapore. Did he use that disguise to escape?

Alfred you have a good memory, but really that doesn't surprise me.

You should be able to put it in the Signature area of your Profile - others have images in their signatures. I think copy to your clipboard and paste in your signature area should work.
