I absolutely concur...it is addicting, educational, and just plain fun...though
it can be aggravating when you have run 60+ missions, gotten the first 3 medals
of honor(i forget what they are), have been promoted to major, and have almost
all the skill areas maxxed out when some dumb german smashes into th top of 
your bi-plane and you crash, due to no fault of you own...

I have to nominate the scene where I'm with 3 other guys and i run into 10 
german planes in wing formation as the best animated sequence DURING a game..
I'm just try ing to imagine how they can get  the amiga to handle 13 airplanes
flying around, keeping all the strategies on the german part correct, etc... 
in one little meg of memory..lets just say, impressive.

Definite thumbs-up for this game. It has my vote for Game of the Year.
(Good job cinema-ware, your batting average is pretty good so far.. )  ;)
