My first impressions of Mig Alley were slightly disappointing. Have Rowan finally managed to do it justice? Wot? No Corsair? Virgin had a crack at the same subject almost two years ago with Sabre Ace - Conflict Over Korea and while that title had one or two problems, it certainly showed just how much potential the subject had. This isn't the first Korean War sim we've seen of course. Now it seems, they are showing signs of turning mainstream for their new sim, Mig Alley is set in what is becoming one of the more popular pages in the sim publisher's atlas, Korea. From the skies of Vietnam ( Flight of the Intruder) to the beachheads of WWII Europe( Overlord) via the fields of Flanders ( DawnPatrol and the various incarnations of Flying Corps), not forgetting an exceedingly weird excursion into the realms of fantasy ( Airpower), they have never tended to model the obvious or common. Rowan have never been a company to shrink from simulating unusual subjects.
