633 Squadron would be great!!
But sadly we dont have the wooden wonder (mossie) or a fjord to fly down, Or the AAA batteries to shoot us down.
Closest thing would be...
A20/110
Ardennes map.
Dont see this one working
heartbreaking.
IF pilots have alot of time on their hands then they could perhaps make something of an RPG out of it?
For example (this is just quickly off the top of my head)...
Pick the mission type -
Bomb/fighter sweep/ground attack
lets go with the following -
Fighter sweep with 6 players. This will be a long game!! (in respect to normal games)
4 take allies, they pick the same plane for the fighter sweep. Lets go with a
P-51D.
The 4 allied planes land at manston and form up. Mean while 2 players take the luftwaffe side of things and just cruise around france somewhere doing as they please.
The 4 allies take off together, and stay in formation. They need to make the target a distant one and with the maps being smaller than the planes have fuel for i propose the following -
Take off from Manston, fly to France, then turn around and fly back towards UK, this will act as France and the target for the sweep, the point being somewhere in the far south east as the area of the sweep. This then means you have the chance to fly together in formation long enough and for a fairly realistic amount of time to "get to your target area" and also encourages you to keep an eye on WEP etc. Tiredness and boredom may kick in while waiting to get to your target, but beware, the Luftwaffe are out their also and waiting for you.
The Lufwaffe meanwhile will be free flying around waiting to spot the allies.
Thats just a rough idea to give you the basics of what i mean, im prob just making it sound more complicated than it is. But you get the idea right?
Thoughts?
