Eastern Front expansion for Down in Flames

Take to the skies over the Eastern Front with
this new expansion for the award winning Down in Flames computer game. Eastern
Front adds new planes, pilots, skills, campaigns, AI enhancements and more to
expand the war in the skies of World War II.

For the first time, you can fly as either Polish
or Russian pilots and command new exciting planes like the LA-7 and IL-2M or
take to the skies in Polish P.11C’s and P.37’s. But it’s not just Russia and
Poland that get updated planes, 29 new planes have been added, including the
awesome German ME-262 jet fighter – including an all new set of jet rules – and
the British Tempest V.

Eastern Front also offers over a dozen new online
campaigns featuring battles over Russia, North Africa, Japan and the Pacific and
Europe and all of the new campaigns have been designed to feature the new
planes.

But its not just new planes and campaigns that
Eastern Front brings to the table. Fourteen new Pilot and Wingman skills have
been added to the game such as Tail Shooter (+1 extra Burst when Tailing),
Charismatic Pilot (+25% to chance to earn medals, Bomber Distraction (-1 turret
skill on enemy bombers) and Bomber Destroyer (Wingman gets a +1 Attack card when
attacking bombers).

The game play has also been enhanced with the
addition of several new features. New game features include the new "Action
Window" that displays each and every action performed by the pilots. This will
greatly aid in the tactical analysis of your victories, and defeats. Pilots can
now start with a range of beginning experience points to allow them immediately
unlock the more advanced aircraft. Eastern Front also adds the ability to create
custom missions where you get to choose the exact pilots, aircraft, and teams
for a dogfight. In addition the A.I. has been upgraded to provide a deeper, more
intense challenge.

With 29 new planes, over a dozen new campaigns,
new pilot and wingman skills and updated AI and gameplay features, Eastern Front
more than doubles the scale and scope of your Down in Flames experience.

Eastern Front is a game expansion and requires
Down in Flames to play. It will cost $15 and will be available as download or
via mail delivery. A bundle pack with the base game will be offered at a special
discount of $5 for only $35!

Eastern Front is currently undergoing final
quality assurance and should be released before October 2006.
