WarBirds 2008 Now Available

WarBirds 2008 has added Two New Terrains, Ten New Aircraft including the famous WW II British Lancaster bomber and the Modern A-67 Dragon Counter Insurgency Aircraft, new three screen graphics capability with Matrox TripleHead2Go hardware, over 50 new personal aircraft paint schemes so Players and Squadrons can personalize their aircraft, new cloud and weather features, and dozens of other major improvements to continue to improve the online combat flying experience of TotalSims.com WarBirds.

WarBirds has been called the best World War II combat operations game ever produced. The award-winning title allows players from around the world to enter a persistent online battlefield and take control of more than 120 different aircraft and vehicles, including fighter and bomber aircraft, tanks, or naval ships in realistic recreations of actual World War II combat.

This new update to WarBirds has added two famous terrains to the over 12 large flying terrains already available to players. The Atoll Terrain was made famous in the Fighter Ops Simulation which operated on AOL in the mid 90's. The New Ardennes Terrain represents the location of the famous Battle of the Bulge of World War II and will be used for Great Tank Battles as well as air combat.

Ten new and updated aircraft with more than double the polygons and detail of previous aircraft have been added to the simulation. New aircraft include the Famous British Lancaster bomber, which accomplished the famous Dam Busters mission of the 617 Squadron and the proposed A-67 Dragon, Counter Insurgency Aircraft, from US Aircraft Inc., for use around the world in the War on Terrorism. Dragon Aviators can now operate the remote cameras and shoot Hellfire's, Sidewinders, and drop JDAM bombs in all of IENT's offline arenas.

Compatible with either PCs or Macs.
