What was BoB I??

Post by SMK-at-work »

Just wondering if this is an improved version of one of a couple of BoB games I had ages ago...??

It's a patched up re-release. Basically the same game with all the patch fixes and changes.

Edit: Just noticed you're in New Zealand, unfortunately this is a north America release only, you'll have to get it somewhere else than from Matrix.

Rowans Battle of Britain but this is a vastly improved version, warts and all.

Anyone who doesn't believe so never played the original

Hehe, best $10 bucks I've ever spent, I love this "time machine" [:D]. If you do get it, download the multiskin addon and then have a fly with 54 Squadron, you'll almost feel at home [;)]
