We played one last night where we had 6 or 7 of us flying HE111's from france to England to bomb RAF Hawkinge, with one guy flying as 109E escort. Generally we formed up at game start, flew to France then turned round and headed for Hawkinge.

We had one guy (pope) as the lead bomber and we followed his lead and orders. When he dropped bombs we dropped bombs. He was the boss we had the 109 free roaming as the escort.

En route from France one of our formation collided with the lead bomber (pope) taking them both out, since i was the third in formation i assumed command and led us to Hawkinge, i got us to the target without any real probs but i dropped the bombs late and missed the airfield thus making everyone else miss to i take full responsibility.

The general idea was to see if we could do it. Naturally we'll have RAF fighters to try and shoot us down, but we just wanted to see how it would go without them at first and it seemed to be ok as lnog as we communicate and dont clog up the radio frequency with crap haha.

So the idea basically was - german bombers fly from france and bomb hawkinge and the fighters provide escort while the RAF tries to intercept at least half of the bombers befoe they manage to bomb the chosen target.


Must say guys, seeing the formation of HE111's and the 109 head towards the cliffs of dover looked incredible. Was a really good game.


So does anyone have any other ideas we could try?


Cheers

Man that sounds like a shiteload of fun! I gostto get more time on this game and join up with you guys.

Just wondering; how many people can get on free flight at one time?

By the way I really like the BoB scenario!!...Can't think of anyother scenario I'd want to do anymore then that....Possibly Stalingrad defense?!

Some great ideas guys! im liking them. We will have to try some of them out sometime and maybe keep track of results etc and get our own little score board or somthing going?

Flagrum_3 the maximum number of players you can have in a free flight is 16 and in the ideal BoB scenario that would be -

nine HE111's
three 109's
four Spitfire/Hurricane

Or any other way people wish to work it

Those numbers are what I had in mind FOZ.......pretty sure 16 players could be found and one good connection server host. As Soviet Ace points out there are a lot of theatres that could be used.
