Now in short words about campaign.
There are two kinds of campaign in IL2 Forgotten Battles – static branched and dynamic. Static branched campaigns are created manually and equal to IL-2 campaign with very minor changes. Missions in these campaigns are made in Full Mission Builder and then united into campaign. There are several historically correct static campaigns made by 1C:Maddox Games. Other static campaigns, made by game fans are available for download from the web. You can design your own static campaign in accordance with your taste and imagination, and events in every mission will be exactly as you want them to be.
IL-2: Forgotten Battles introduces dynamic campaign. Dynamic campaign is automatic. You select your nation, a squadron, and planes that you want to fly in every operation. You decide, when you want to join the war. After that the first mission in campaign is generated and offered to you. When you finish the mission, the results will be processed, and another mission generated – and so on, till end of war. Missions in dynamic campaign will never repeat, because many conditions, targets, time of day, weather, opposition and almost everything else are random.
In any operation, your forces will advance or retreat. The frontline moves historically, but you can speed it up or slow down in limited degree. If you destroy an object - it will stay destroyed for time that depends on it's nature. Every destroyed plane, friendly or hostile, reduces number of planes of this type on the theater, making their appearance less likely. Lost trains and transport columns will affect supply rate. If you kill or capture an enemy ace, he will not appear in the future battles.
One of the most important features of dynamic campaign is your squadron. Every pilot has a name, photo (is possible to replace the default photo by your own or you friends photos) a rank, medals, sorties and kills. His skill level is defined by combat experience. Pilots can be killed, captured, promoted, awarded or transferred. Your losses are replaced, but new pilots will likely have less or none of combat experience. Your squadron has limited amount of combat ready planes, and if it drops below some point, you will fly shorthanded until re-supplied.

Select your country and type of campaign. Big window of campaign description we keep for old style of campaign. Old campaigns that created by users or third party firms also will work in FB, so we had not plan to change general interface, but was planning to keep maximum of compatibility.
