Welcome to War and Tactics!    War and Tactics Forum is currently undergoing some modifications that might disable features you are used to. This is unabvoidable as we have to update the forum engine to a new structure that is incompatible with many of the features we had used so far. The good news: WaT will be more secure and stable, and most of the features we uninstalled will be a natural part of the new structure anyway. For the rest we will be looking for solutions.

I remember having the option of building these in Word-in-Flames ( but in 1944/1945 all the production points go to the militias Verlegen

Yes, this is the Komet........not much of a weapons system. Much more dangerous to itself than Allied fighters or bombers defensive fire was. The fuel mix was so volatile they often blew up without any Allied help at all.


It will be interesting to see what Matrix does with the computerized version of World in Flames. I believe it's due out this year sometime.

Good Hunting.
