Post subject:  Reenactment: Battle of Britain, 70th anniversary

I could not find anything in WIX that seemed appropriate.
While we did not dress up in real life, it was a real attempt to recreate in game the real events of 70 years ago.
I hope not to receive the wrath of the Mods...

Enjoy!


Last month I organized and ran the Battle of Britain (Adlertag), 70th anniversary event on the poplar game [url="http://www.battlegroundeurope.com/"]Battleground Europe: WW2 Online[/url].

It was made clear thought it was a dedication to those who fought in the historic battle, as a way of honoring them by recreating the event.

We had a very good turnout, the event played out despite difficulties, and was so popular it was repeated 3 hours later.

Some screen shots and movies of the event:

A few of the brave defenders getting ready, note the dark, foreboding sky! (All Hurri I's and 2 Blen I. The Spit Ia's lifted from a different field).

And the dastardly aggressor (109E-1, 109E-4, 110, and He-111's) under seemingly optimistic sky:
