S3 #52 - Raiders Over England - October 1940

The Battle of Britain has been lost but the Luftwaffe will not admit outright defeat and continues to pester coastal targets and London itself with small bomber raids and jabo attacks.  The hard fighting jaeger are sent over in large numbers to fight the rapidly growing numbers of Spitfires.  It is a fighters battle with brave bomber crews making fast runs at all altitudes to hit specific targets to let the British know they are still at the mercy of German might.

This series is a a game of cat and mouse with the Luftwaffe trying to hit important industrial targets and shipping without slugging it out in massive waves like was done in September.  The Luftwaffe must tie up the RAF to allow bombers and jabos to hit quickly and get out before the Spitfires can get them.  The RAF must continue to attrite the enemy and make daylight bombing an impossibility.
