Not that I can participate or anything, since I'm on 360. But, isn't that a bit lopsided? Eight Brit fighters against two German?

Maybe 4 Heinkels/Stukas and 4 109s vs a 3/3 split Spitfires and Hurricanes? After all, the RAF was outnumbered most times.

Default Germans had the upper hand already

I guess ur right my friend but since it is strike bombers have the advantage!.

See 6 He111 with loads of 50x32x6= "if they get near a cluster of bases, and hope they know how to bomb, ur pretty much done"

other thing, I restricted the he111 to the 50lb not just because of historic value, but also, had i included 250lb, the game could might as well end in 4-5 minutes. [of course, if u know how to use the he111]

Besides, after the 5 minute restriction for the he111, I will be using "bearing; N32E--> N90W" a good effective way to bomb unotice.

If you are being historically correct as you state in a few replies then you will have to use the He111 H3 as the H6 wasn't around. Neither will any variant of the 109 other than the Emile be historically correct. You seem to be trying to 'adapt' what actually happened to gain the advantage for the Germans???

Maybe so, but we know how this re-enactment will end, lots of HE111 wreckage in the channel near Dover

That was never in doubt; All this has happened before and will happen again.

That said 1 He111 versus 15 spits is going to be a bit one sided anyway! Well will be if Luftwaffe is not careful with what he's saying at the minute about the war!
