Whoops! I forgot that part.
I hate getting older.

For those folks that already own Forgotten Battles and the Aces Expansion
Pack, Pacific Fighters can be installed in conjunction with the older games
to bring all the aircraft from Forgotten Battles and the Aces Expansion Pack
into the Pacific Fighters game. Essentially this makes Pacific Fighters an
expansion to the expansion to the Forgotten Battles game.
For those folks that don't have Forgotten Battles and the Aces Expansion
Pack, Pacific Fighters can be installed as a stand alone game. The stand
along version is a fully functional game with all the features of the
previous versions of the IL-2 series, but without the aircraft, campaigns or
maps of the initial series. One problem with this dual setup is the
incompatibility between IL-2:FB / AEP / PF and stand alone PF installations
in online play. Basically if you play online you need to make sure that the
people you play with are using the same kind of install of the game. Most
folks with IL-2:FB and AEP tend to install both versions of the game to
avoid any confusion.
