4th June- Not so historically correct recreation

[Gilly]

It’s July 16th 1945 and the allied leaders meet at the Pottsdam conference to discuss how to administer the defeated Germany. In attendance are Joseph Stalin, Harry Truman, Winston Churchill and Prime Minister elect Clement Attlee. Such meeting of the heads of states are rare to say the least and the event is well publicised.
Unbeknown to the allies a small cell from KG200 is still active and operating from a remote forest in southern Germany. KG200 has a small amount of (allied) aircraft still at its disposal and has come up with a plan to assassinate these world leaders in one raid. The plan is for a lone bomber to destroy the palace where the conference is taking place. The KG200 plan is to fly an allied bomber to Pottsdam and affect a mission thereby destroying the palace and the leaders therein. They also plan a possible diversionary decoy to further thwart the allies in their attempts to locate and destroy the rogue elements of KG200.
The allies have a strong presence of all types of aircraft stationed in and around Berlin and as such do not consider any potential threat as plausible or real. In addition they also have access to captured German aircraft.

What I suggest is a game of hide and seek. A lone Bomber (perhaps 2 to add decoy potential) along with a single escort attempt to fly across Germany to pottsdam and crash into the palace. The choice of route is entirely up to the pilots. The allies stationed at Templehoff receive notification that an unknown aircraft has entered German airspace and then have to try and find the bomber before it carries out its mission. Plan is for allied to head toTemplehoff, bomber to head to wherever on the eastern edge of the map. Upon reaching the edge notification is sent to the allies and the game begins. Game ends when bomber is destroyed or when allies run out of pilots (although no issue with destroyed pilots having as second chance providing they do a ‘touch’ ground at templehoff before returning into the game.

Anyone who wants to know more give myself or McQ a shout. We'll do it in sim using the Berlin using the strike map (thereby at least trying to negate the awacs style map) I'll post more details here nearer the time but just want to gauge interest. The joy of this is that you will not be limited to any particular year or 'theatre' aircraft and basically fly what you wish. Please state a preference as to whether you would prefer to hide or seek and what aircraft you'd prefer to use.

I like the gameplan Gilly, and think I'll just sign in as bomberescort if that's okay with you.
Might be an idea to schedule take-off a bit late. Theres a cpl of footballmatches going on that evening.

Cool by me mate, plus it enables the guys across the pond more flexibility if we do it a little later than 10.

Brilliant meistor.

I gladly show as well . like the idea of the touch and go at tempelhof to re enter match bomber escort should be have a couple of reincarnations as well perhaps having a limited amount of lives ie 2 or 3 might be good. Its hard to find a good balance . Just my thoughts, what say you?

[Hicks-81]

You can count with me.


What game mode?

[McQ59]
