FRAME 4: OPERATION "Jeanne d'Arc"
Note: The "game rules" link just takes me to an "error 404: not found" page. But I guess a MAF can host all the AE/8th/RCAF. Also not sure at what fields bombers are allowed to base?
Summary
For this frame our bombers will initially de-ack T38 and then hunt for tanks/GV's. The 352nd will cover them. The 4th FG will be at max altitude ready to go wherever they are called in for help. The AE/8th/RCAF will close unprotected radars in the south and then CAP in the south for enemy raiders or go wherever the enemy is. (It is every FG's responsibility to quickly call in the 4th FG if they spot Jerries in numbers.)
All squads may relocate as they see fit. Just make sure the field is unused.
Also feel free to voice your opinions if something needs changing.
KoN/69th
Field: T41 Amersfort (4.5 grid)
Mission: 1) Kill all the seven acks and the radar at T38 Nijmegen (save bombs for tanks as the 352nd will go for the other buildings). Then hunt for tanks (bombs) and ground vehicles (strafe) in the T38->T45 area. If the 352nd would close T38, then either
2) strike the radar and as many buildings as you can destroy at T49 (E of T38) and also destroy the bridge east of T49. The radar station at T49 has the same layout as T38.
or
3) relocate to kill tanks wherever the action is going strong as per orders of the frame CO.
Additional notes: The 352nd will cover you. Communicate so that you know for sure they are in place before starting any attacks. Make sure you immediately call in help if you spot Jerries. If the 352nd know you are under attack at first once buffer is filled with kills, then it's to late.
352nd FG
Field: T34 Hertogenbosch (4.5 grid)
Mission: Protect our bombers at T38. Be close cover to them but at enough altitude and quickly call in the 4th FG if the Jerries come in numbers. Also once T-38 is de-acked, please send in a wingpair at a time to strafe down the remaining buildings at T38 while the bombers go for tanks. Main objective is to have the majority of your FG keeping enough alt to protect our bombers.
4th FG
Field: M24 Evere (3.4 grid)
Mission: You will be the hammer this frame and I recommend the Hurricane. Keep out of enemy radar at max altitude and start your CAP around the T42 area (3.4.6 grid). This area may change as the frame evolves. Intercept wherever enemy high bombers show up or where you are called in for help. Main objective is to support either the 352nd or the AE/8th/RCAF viciously when needed. Use prudence when intercepting raiders so as to not falling for enemy baits.
AE/8th FG
Field: M52 Odendorf (5.3 grid)
Mission: Take-off at T+0. Strafe the radar SW of M65. Fast in, fast out. It is far from any ack. Please run at least a practice run offline so that you can quickly find it in the woods.
After the radar is down, Join together with the RCAF and stay high around T46. You initial job is to CAP the southern map from raiders. Call in the 4th FG if the enemy arrive en masse. If the enemy go for the northern part of the map, relocate and join the fight or guard M52 as you decide is best or as per in-game orders by the frame CO.
