[Poltava]

Well, I have only tested HSFX for a day, but I must say that I am MOST impressed, by the loading time, by the sheer volume of the content, by the ease. And as a compulsive mission-builder I feel that this is really a big step forward, as you get a simple vanilla install, that works like a charm and at the same time that comes with a LOAD of new stuff, adding together a lot of MODs that I could not get to work before, or that I actually hesitated to install: new ships, new tanks, new vehicle columns, moving infantry, etc etc. I mean, just those trench system objects are really to die for. Not saying anything about flying things like the F-86 and the Mig-15. (Or all the new nations, or that we can FINALLY build Spanish Civil War campaigns now, with the I-15, the Hs-123 and the Bf-109B!) And the debugging should result in a stabler game.

HSFX should also lead to a big reduction in the number of people being unable to load and play some new campaigns, as most of the great new packs of objects are well and truly integrated into the game now.

This looks really good, and it appears that we are now moving towards MOD unification at last.
