It's not looking that way. The webmaster Sharx moved to Mexico a few months back, and was starting to rebuild the site, but I haven't seen anything come of it.

Here are a few skin sites that I use now. They're nothing like IL2Skins was, but they're ok. A lot of the stuff used to be found at IL2Skins anyway.

Excellent pictures. I've never actually flown a La-5FN - I was hoping in my campaign they'd finally give me a La-5FN but they just left me with a La-5 despite the fact I was the highest scoring Soviet ace with 146 air-to-air kills. And then my brother's computer broke down and I lost my campaign.

I have all my missions and skins, settings, everything backed up on disc. Thankfully, because I've had to do a few reinstalls.
It's a lot of work to lose otherwise.

But yeah, it's a bitch that you'd lose a campaign like that due to a computer crash.

I'd been protecting the skies above Leningrad for two years. Injured twice, shot down about six times, crash landed a fair few times too. I only got six missions in a P-40 before I got shot down and injured. When I came back they had a nice La-5 for me.

It is a git but when he gets it workin' again I'll just start a new one with the Germans, me thinks.

Nice shots! 8) I should really continue my P-39 campaign. Its annoying though, every mission is a recon flight over Midway, and my flight of 4 P-39's gets jumped by 12 Zeros

Here's a bad shot from Shogun: Total War. Notice my kill:loss ratio on the battle. My battle line of Yari Samurai (Spearman) infront of my Samurai Archers, classic case of pike and bow invented by the English. I flanked that line with a regiment of No-Dachi Samurai (Swordsmen, rank breakers). They attacked my right flank, I charged the No-Dachi on that flank in and wheeled the other No-Dachi regiment in behind to flank them. Meanwhile my archers were givin' them hell and my Daiymo with bodyguard helped at their rear by scaring their archers. Yes, he is that ugly.

Yep. It's IL2:Forgotten Battles. A great game in my opinion. It doesn't have near the amount of third-party support that the CFS games do (Due entirely to the designers, 1C: Maddox. ), so you don't get the nearly unlimited amount of maps and third-party add-ons like in other WWII sims, but I like the models and graphics better.


So what happens when you strafe a Russian cruiser in port, in a Focke-Wulf? You die.

Yeah. It caught fire and blew about 30 seconds later.
