Eagle Day/Bombing the Reich has been released by Matrix Games. This is the old Talonsoft Battle of Britain and 12 O'Clock High games put out as a combined game. I helped playtest this one. If you were a fan of the old Talonsoft games or have an interest in the air war over Europe then check it out.

Copies of the old games are pretty hard to come by as I rarely see them on Ebay, may see more as guys buy the new game and get rid of their old copies. Just be aware that there are some serious bugs with the old one, especially in the BTR game. I don't think there were too many or that they were too serious in the BoB game. Here is an interesting AAR if anyone wants to look;

Been working on testing it all weekend..apologies to those of you who were waiting on game files. This game is one where if you had the old ones then this is a great upgrade and the interface won't be a big issue as we mainly fixed the big bugs. If you've never had the old games and are interested in the period and the subject matter then it's about the only thing going. I personally don't find the interface that clunky but I suppose familarity has a good bit to do with that.
