There are two reviews on my site under WW2->simulations. Cautious thumbs up for offline play if you can put up with a few quirks.

I read some scathing reviews of the game. Graphics are supposed to be good but FM's are supposedly quirky and the DM and AI abominable. Stuff like your plane sliding down tail first after a stall, bombers trying to get into a turning dogfight with fighters until they crash into the ground (losing altitude on those tight turns) and no noticeable change in flight characteristics in your plane as it's damaged until it falls apart.

Thats been my experience in EAW except a B17 with three engines out will win

Nations has some very cool stuff in it too. Very thick overcast cloud formations you can get lost in. Sunny above the clouds, dark and hard to find your way underneath.

Ever run into a barrage baloon tether while trying to find your way out of the overcast?

The missions are very good too if you can put up with the FMs

hey i got nations fighter command
ok its a good game but one minor bug in it
ok the grafiks are realy great like ww2 fighters off jane's the engine noise i good also wen you go in a dive you here that great dive sound the explosions are great but now comes the problem there is no patch for the game and i think they never wil make on ones you fly like 3 or 4 times then after that you only get cdt's so that is the major problem with this game
