#3, merged sequel 2, North Africa
The first overseas deployment of Spitfires as fighters took place on 7 March, when 15 tropicalised Mk Vs carrying 90-gallon slipper fuel tanks took off from the flight deck of HMS Eagle bound for Malta.
The first Desert Air Force squadron to receive Spitfires was No 145 in April 1942. These were tropicalised Mk VBs.
You can't leave Spitfires or Malta out of "North Africa", they were extremely important to the North African Campaign.
You also want the Swordfish if only to sink the Italian Navy at Taranto, harry Rommel's supply lines and help keep control of the Med.
I think we'll need the 'foot' of Italy too.
I think #4 is 'Leaning towards France'..... sort of '41-'42
#5 "Singapore to Imphal and back to Mandalay". Burma map. Tomahawk(?), Ki43, Betty, +??
#6. Pearl Harbour to Midway. '41-'42. Wildcat, Warhawk(?), SBD, D3A, Catalina now flyable. Plus all those IJN types, at least the Zeros and Vals.
#7. 'Battle for Germany'. The big one. '42-'44. Extended Map. Spitfire MkIX, P47, P38, P51B, flyable Lancaster, Stirling, Wellington, B17, Liberator. Me262, Me163, Arado, FW190D9. Is this ringing any bells??
#8. "Darwin to Okinawa". 42-45. Islands Maps. Hellcat, + ??, Later zeros, IJA types?
#9. '45. "Overlord to Rheims". We'll want the Tempest V (with the correct engine please), P51D, B29. V1. Ta152.
#10 Hiroshima to Nagasaki. Maybe not.
Probably not strictly accurate on aircraft but enough to keep MG employed for a while.
