Combat Mission Fortress Italy - Shocking the Livorno

Another great scenario in Combat Mission Fortress Italy, "Butera Station".

One battalion of the Italian Livorno Division pushing towards the beach head at Gela. A reinforced company-sized patrol of the 3rd US Infantry Division deploys quickly and tries to block the Italians. In this scenario, my poor planning resulted in a nail-biting finale.

DCS World - Air Refueling in the Sukhoi Su-33

Air refueling in the Su-33 is significantly easier than in other aircraft, and the reason has nothing to do with it belonging to the Flaming Cliffs series.

DCS F/A-18C Air Refueling - Airspeed Changes, the Other Pilot-Induced Oscilation

This video I posted in YouTube a while back is my response to the widespread "practice, practice, practice" advice so frequent in the official forums.



It's not the widely accepted "practice, practice, practice" pseudo-aphorism what moved me to explore the topic in more depth. Truth be told, you will need to practice! It was actually the lack of pointers on what to look for while you practice.

Graviteam Tactics Mius Front / Raid DLC - The Long Flank

The professional pessimist in me kind of predicted this, but I chose to ignore the warning signs.

A short note on "Operation Star redux", now updated to the "Mius Front" standards as the "Raid" DLC.

Hot Battles of The Cold War - Armor Against Light Infantry (Steel Armor Blaze of War, Graviteam)

Heads up! I just posted a new video with Steel Armor Blaze of War gameplay.

I re-installed this great tank warfare simulation and I'm re-earning my way to top tanker via the quieter Afghanistan campaign. More armor vs armor warfare battles await in the other campaigns available!

History Channel Civil War: The Battle of Bull Run, Evans Scenario

Do you remember MadMinute Games? In 2004 they released Take Command Bull Run which is the precursor of the Scourge of War series.

Deprived of gaming the Battle of Bull Run, I decided to pull my copy of this old classic from the attic. It's showing its age, but the game play is still excellent. Join me in the video below for gameplay footage of the Evans scenario.

Panzer Battles of Kursk - Southern Flank (John Tiller Software) - 7th Pz. Div. Through the Marshes

We have the game, we have the books ... Let's fight!

DCS F/A-18C Got AIM-120Bs

This week, Eagle Dynamics added AIM-120B missiles to the Hornet. In this blog entry, I am playing a mock up scenario in which I had the opportunity to use them for the first time.
