Unfortunately for much of the life of the Forgotten Battles series, Ubisoft has though granting forum space to help promote their product, not tried to help bind the community of "customers" together through the proven method of supporting squadrons.
As to support, I simply mean building and maintaining an active list, as that alone pulls people into groups focussed about their product. As it stands now many of the squadrons listed have come and gone, so a lot to wade through resulting in many simply giving up and risking their gradual slip away from the sim.
Having personally petitioned, emailed & pressed for action since the release of PF, aided by many of our local OPs to generate some action....Sadly nothing, no response, and as names have come and gone of forum administration that had good intentions as to this point, nothing happened.
To that end we as a "player community" have generated the following list, within you'll also find groups from the Italian, French, & German forums as I've requested they add their groups as well.
Lastly, in that this product seems as though it may eventually cease to be a source of revenue for Ubisoft risking this forums demise, the 78th*Sentai will host an identical list here: http://78sentai.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=132 , and as long as the simulation is flown will be maintained.
Post your request for addition at either forum, it will be added or responded to regularly.
K2 / Billfish / Ktu*78th*Sentai
Post the following information: * Squadron Name. * Squadron's "Virtual" Nationality (Are you set up to be a German/U.S./Japanese/Italian/etc.) or Generic. (those I missed will be added as needed....Only actual air forces of WWII, not those to reflect membership (like Jamaica) or "themes". * Website URL
