Mossie NF.II vs Ju 88G-6 Nachtjager

A quick two frame series before the holiday break. There are some challenges with how the Warbirds graphics engine deals with night/darkness, so I will be introducing some cloud layers and reduced icon/otto settings to make things a bit more interesting.

Arena is open for practice until 1600hrs EST on Sunday. AI bomber routines will be running.

North Sea Terrain Set-up.
