    I uploaded it this morning to www.checksix-fr.com but, unfortunately, the site is out for the moment. Should be fixed within the week !!!

    Some informations about this new campaign folder (english readme) :


    "INSTRUCTIONS/README


    Ace Expancion Pack is NECESSARY !!!


    That's right... Ace Expansion Pack brings us the possibility to finally fly some Italian
    planes !!!

    But unfortunately, there is no Campaign Folder for Italy in FB... so, now it is fixed !!!

    Yes, here it is !!! The full complete Italian Campaign and Single Missions Folder.

    Included :

    -the medals, made by the talentuous and unimitable Tony, from Milan,
    -the ranks my friend Obélix searched for me,
    -a 10 missions mini-campaign taking place during the beginning of the Italian invasion in
    Greece, in the Balkanic mountains in October 1940 (fictionnal),
    -a menu music which is played when you choose Italy in the carreer or single missions menu
    (if I am right, it is the march of the Regia Aeronautica),
    -an icon representing the Italian roundel with the three "fascis" that appear when you
    choose "Italy" in the carreer menu,
    -a background image for the single mission and carreer modes,
    -the fabulous italian speechpack made by Maxmars & co,
    -a complementary zip containing the briefings in ITALIAN (thanks Tony & Maxmars),

    and also all the skins used in the missions you will fly (which missions have also been
    edited for single play). I have found most of the skins at the fabulous www.il2skins.com
    web site, but I have a special thank you for UF_Josse, who made exclusively for this pack
    the superb Greek Blenheims skins you will see in different missions.

    Missions are playable in carreer mode, single mode and cooperative multiplayer mode
    (search for Italie in cooperative mode...).

    INSTALL :

    -unzip this file in a temporary folder,
    -simply copy-paste the 3 files you will obtain (Missions, PaintSchemes and samples) in the
    main folder of your IL2 FB (for example in D/Ubi Soft/IL2 Forgotten Battles),
    -and... that's all !!!

    Nothing easier, no ???

    Missions by :

    -1-7 Thierry Duruz aka Gaston (thierry.duruz@ftmh.ch)
    -8-10 Marco 5SA_Zippy


    Thank yous to :


    -UF_Josse for his marvelous serie of Greek Blenheims skins,
    -www.il2skins.com where I found the other skins,
    -maxmars and the complete team who commited the superb italian speechpack,

    and to my friends of the "Tontons Flingueurs" squadron (we are only 3...) :

    -Tony, from Milano and
    -Obélix, from Paris.

    Very special thanks to AAA_Pappy for his english translation and to maxmars for having
    supervised the Italian translation.

    Thank you GjTed. I have played the first 2 missions and I see a lot of hard work in this and your choice of map is great. I haven't flown it before but the G50 is certainly a challenge particularly when it comes to visibility on the ground. I have figured out how to take off and keep myself lined up, but my landings are a sloppy affair.
    Skins are nice, and the missions are certainly challenging with the G50 being the way it is.

    Hats off to you mate.

    Thanks, Dubbo... and you will see... it will become harder, especially in the 2 missions without waypoints (and one of them is without weapons too...) !!!
