EAW (european air war) was good for this, waayyyyy back in the day.


It gave you the choice of the luftwaffe campaign in -

battle of britain 1940
europe 1943
europe 1944

if you started europe in 43, you could carry your stats and squadron over to the 4 campaign. Though prior to starting the campaign as the luftwaffe it clearly said "you cannot win the war" just drag it out a little longer.

I remember it well, taking down bombers (unsure of what until i got close enough to intercept) and they usually had spitfires or P47's escorting them if it was close enough to the english channel, then i remember one game... i went up to interept a formation of B17's, same shit different day. I see the escorts, and expect spits or P47's (preffered P47's they were big and easy) but it turned out to be my first encounter with the P51D.... son of a bitch wiped out practically my entire staffel. I was not happy at all!! On the whole it was a superb and very enjoyable luftwaffe camapign, i would love another authentic campaign similar to this one.
