Weve just played a short campaign against 56 RAF using the scripted method for two and the command style (with 56 RAF making the flight mission) for one mission.

First off I have to say 56RAF fly very well and were fine opponants. S!

The radar aided them somewhat but the lack of radar for germans was a total detriment. Clearly some kind of air observer corps is need for bothsides. Just how this would be implented I do know know. As for any pop up text on the screen (its distracting and hiddous orange) I am against it. Its distracting and a little too good for directing onto targets. Also it would not give altitude whereas the radar system does.

As for declaring a winner, Ive found that taking part in campaigns in the past -both running them and taking part in others campaigns, its best to let the stats tell the tale. You might have had an excellant sortie but your team may not, your squadron might have had an awesome sortie but your side was flattened... In war there are only losers... The stats are useful for Squadrons that run career modes for their pilots. How do you equate a win or loss? The target was destroyed but you lost all your bombers, is that a draw? It gets quite complex and I would rather have it revole around objective complete...

I think C in C style is out of the window...

Look forward to seeing 501, 64 and 401 in the campaign aswell as many others!

S!
