I ask because it occurs to me that if we could use 1945 as a basis, the Allies might be able to fly from fields in France and the LW from Germany, without that damn great ditch in the way. This would give a better feel to campaigns that didn't involve crossing a large body of water, such as France 40, the Desert (sorry, Emil, I only just thought of it ) or SE Asia.

Second thought: I am in the process of analysing all the sq**.dat, misn**.dat and camp**.dat files to see which ones might be best suited for turning into new campaigns. Is this a waste of time, ie. has somebody out there already done it?

Is there a good reason why everybody starts with the 1940 campaign as a basis, or is it just because we know it works?
