On 30 October I sent an email out to the squadron COs outlining the proposed series set-up. I have received a response from the 4th, but am waiting for additional responses before I post the rules. I was aiming to start the next series on 7 Nov, but will need some feedback quickly.

As currently planned, series is loosely based on the first five missions of the 8th Bomber Commander, specifically those of the 97th Bomb Group.
Set-up would see B-17F, escorted by Spit IXb, attempting to bomb targets defended by Bf109F-4 and FW190A-4.
Terrain will be Channel1944.
At this time numbers are uncertain, but short of both sides flying the same aircraft, I believe the fighter match-up is fairly even.

Feed back welcome, either here on the forum or through your COs.
******************
Edit - added the map below. Tentatively the first frame would be the attack on the rail yards at Rouen on 17 Aug 1942.
The bomber login will be available for the buffs. The player turnout will determine the number of AI wingmen.

With Compliments and Appreciation

352nd FighterGroup is Good to Go with anything.
If an obvious anomaly presented itself in your hard work it would be proposed altered.
Silence (with some exceptions) is acquiescence on our part.

Do your worst/best....... :)

Juice,
Thanks for that, although even a grunt is better than silence. <S>

Now, can I get some feedback from the other squads, please?
