    War thunder is a F2P game like World of Tanks except... Its about ww2 - Korean war air combat. Its a ton of fun and mostly involves using realistic flying mechanics to shoot down tons of enemy planes and blow up tanks. Currently in Open Beta and will not be getting wiped again (per the 6 month road map). It will eventually add Ground forces and Fleet assets, so if you are looking for some pure fun this is were its at. If anyone gets involved i have the same name in that game and i am usually on.
