Any other history buffs out there?

Avenger? If my history is correct, that's an AMERICAN aircraft used in the Pacific Theater. The Bismarck was attacked mostly (if not exlusively) by the Royal Navy with ships and with torpedo bombers, not dive bombers. Also, the torpedo bombers used were usually the Fairley Swordfish (a rather outdated biplane design!)

Edit: "The story of this game is part fantasy and part history."

Ah, I missed that part of the review.

You are correct. It looks a lot like the aircraft shown in the first screenshot. They got that right, if nothing else. The Royal Navy did use Avengers (which they originally called Tarpons) in WWII, but not to attack the Bismarck.

Correct again. (Incidentally, the Avenger was also a torpedo bomber, not a dive bomber per se.)

I don't see how those Swordfish pilots even got into their cockpits, what with their enormous balls.

How do you turn on the engineers light?
