    Just purchased Desert Wings Tobruk on the Official Il-2 Store website...now what?

    Purchase of Desert Wings Tobruk went smoothly & quickly thru the Official Il-2 Store & I have my license key,but when I went down my list of purchases & found the record of the purchase it seemed to indicate I could download the game as well.I hit download in all the right place & immediately got a exe , but it seemed to be for Great Battles, with no indication it might include Desert Wings. I didn't hit 'Install"- should I? Previous post seemed to indicate I will still have to wait a week until it appears in Steam & then enter my License key. My question is obvious what do I do now? Hit the GB exe& have Desert Wings to play now or patiently wait until next Thursday?

    When Tobruk was available, you just need take the code included in your IL2sturmovik.com account,
    open STEAM, in "Games" choose "Active a product on Steam", enter the key (Product Code) and leave STEAM do the rest.

    What GB exe you referring to?

    If you activate the code in Steam, you should see the Tobruk under the DLC tab of Blitz page.

    Win11, AMD 3900X, EVGA RTX 3080 Ti FTW3 12GB, 128GB RAM, 3840x2160 UHD 43", Logitech G940, MFG Crosswind v3, TrackIr4Pro w Delanclip.

    I believe you go into your IL-2 account and then"License Keys" and copy your key number for Tobruk.
    Then go to your Steam Library and bottom left open "Add a game", the "Activate a product on Steam".
    Then add the product code and finish.
    I think that is the procedure.
    Having said that I don't think it is available quite yet.

    Trust me to get confused with GMT/BST ( British Summer Time )
    Everything went like clockwork.
    Been playing all evening - marvellous.
    Well done everybody.

    It uses the Blitz Launcher, there will be no entry on the Steam Library. It's just a "Blitz DLC".

    Thanks to other Desert Wings guys I was able to find it It was there in Steam & it works...I just didn't know it started with the CloD Blitz startup.As far as I know this wasn't fully explained , but to be honest i might have missed it in my over enthusiasm...So in hindsight a smooth quick install without me having to do a thing...
