When can we see some mods for this game here?
My favorite of its kind together with Victoria 2, but not so heavy for the PC. I mostly like its exact maps (unlike HoI3) and easygoing gameplay.
Iron Cross is MUCH better than Darkest Hour, unless you just want to try a WW1 game. But then Paradox still thinks that HOI3 was worth it hahahahahahaha.
Why is this game so expensive on desura? Its only 9.99 Euro on Steam, Gamersgate, Beamdog, Stardock etc.
maybe it's not standalone on steam ?
on desdura you probably get hoi2
nope it is a stand-alone game :)
ehh, attacking enemy airbases doesnt damage their planes, just airbase level,will u fix this ?
how to download this awesome mod??
its not a mod its game which uses HOI2 game engine...
u need 1916 planes to carry out air superiority (thats lvl 3 or 4 interceptors), i dont like it the same as u, but hope they will fix this soon, also there are no airbases to station planes who's range is really low, but we should have in mind that airbase could have been a house with an long flat lawn :p
