S3 Series

yeesh, restriction after restriction....these ships score points...these ships do not, fly here, don't fly there. strike this, but not that..........gotta get out my Avalon Hill book of instructions......better read up...

I hear ya guys.... got a lot on my plate this week, but am looking at a lot of jabo ops.
Maybe some lites can light up the tgt for the med bmbrs to follow in..//
Need to keep the fights low so we have some chance..

Salute Comrades!

Looking at S6, seems there's at least one tgt required for closure, so F32 may still be open.

One thing we Nomads could do is take our trusty Mitchells and hunt critters west of F141. Take our chances with the ack, but can always pull up and take them out after trying to hit or actually hitting a critter. We have lots more loiter time than any of the lites.

On recce for last frame, there were many critters west of the 141 bridge, but they may not count for the ROE, GASP!!!!! Sheesh.

We'll keep looking for something to contribute, and may have to go jabo mission with the lites.

Any body try F141 last frame? Tanks nearby?

Gums...

don't think damage carries over to next frame, only actual field closures

German dogpigs!

back to the experiments Pavlov

Salute Comrades!

Still thinking about all the critters west of F141. I saw many trucks and such on my recce there, and some 40mm ack, but no 88's. That might change, but for now we think we can use F32 and head east, then come back and plink at the critters there.

Of course, the referees could rule our mission illegal, but the rules say "any" aircraft can attack critters.

We shall still announce our mission as armed recce for tanks and such to stay within the rules, which I don't see banning armed recce.

Let us know.

Ok so the rules say targets not closed will rebuild, so we can hit and try to close those fields we hit before,
or we can go for ships and GV targets. Any thoughts ? Remember, if we want to close an airfield, any standing a/c
must be destroyed to close. Also, Ports will close when ships are killed as well as ground targets.

Not just any ships score points. ONes in port at 73 don't count as points, but only to close 73. However, the ships in the river channel the OTHER side of 73 do count for points.
learned this the hard way, we struck the wrong ships sinking them but, didn't score points and lost people doing it.
Might consider gloming all of us together to over whelm local defenders, withdrawing before they get reinforcements from the north, or south, then fake em out again, and go the other direction for 2nd sorte.
Lets not scatter ourselves to the 4 winds where we only have a small edge in numbers that their superior aircraft can over come. I believe the ONLY way we can overcome their superior aircraft is with overwhelming numbers, which means concentration of forces in our own flight envelope.
I havn't seen a radar picture coverage, how far can they see into our lines?

Has anybody considered hitting 21?

think its only place in south they can up twin aircraft from.

Does not seem to much there to close it

A few PE2 approaching NOE from SW climb up at last moment and can knock out the radars on the hill there.

There is 1 88mm on the northern side hill
rest of targets are localised on the airstrip

Salute!

nice thinking Balls.

I'll look at it and get back.

BTW, I can't find parked aircraft as required for closure, and they go down real easy.
