Blitzkrieg!!!!!
THE FLYING TIN CANS PRESENT:
'BLITZKREIG' Date: SUNDAY JUNE 11 Time: 1900 GMT Server: ATAG AXIS v ALLIES Public Server Map: 'Hellfire Corner' (Canterbury Airfield, 11am, Sunday June 11th, 1940) 'As you were, Gentlemen!' (You too, Snargle!) As you are only too aware the Luftwaffe have been pounding the ports of Southampton and Portsmouth recently, with numerous attacks by Ju 88's and 110 fighter bombers. Fortunately, thanks to brave chaps like you, we've been able to send them home with a bloody nose. Arf, arf! However, our Agents in northern France tell us that the Luftwaffe are moving their focus back to Dover and 'Hellfire Corner.' We suspect they may be about to launch deadly Jabo attacks on vital targets in the area. It's up to you to send 'em packing! Are you up to it?' ATAG and TFS are delighted to support The Flying Tin Cans in this, their second Multiplayer Event, which is shaping up to be a real 'ding dong' off the Kentish Coast. Red and Blue pilots, no matter how 'green,' are invited to come and join the fun, thrills and spills! Everybody will receive a warm welcome....either in 303's, cannon shells or......... loud banter! Please note that Blitz-only and Blitz/Tobruk players will both have access to this event. See you next Sunday! Here are the Red and Blue briefings: [Army Red] <Name> Army Red <Description> August 1940 – Hellfire Corner v1.3.1 Weather: Clear skies, winds from the W @ 4 knots. “What General Weygand called the battle of France is over. I expect that the Battle of Britain is about to begin.” – Winston Churchill Fighter Command Orders - Provide fighter cover over a merchant convoy moving through the Channel. This convoy is westbound departing from Dover (AX23) and heading to Dungeness (AV20). - Intercept enemy air raids on our coastal airbases and installations. Use Chain Home RDF (Tab-4-1) to locate enemy groups. Likely targets of enemy bombers include RAF Manston (AX26.3), RAF Hawkinge (AW23.5), RAF Lympne (AV23.2), & RAF Eastchurch (AU26.5). Bomber Command Orders - The Germans have been gathering their forces in preparation for an invasion. The Calais railyard (BB21. is loaded with equipment. Destroy the railyard to disrupt their plans. - The airstrip at Caffiers (BB20.4) is home to an elite Messerschmitt unit that was recently outfitted with a new variant of the 109 which boasts increased performance at higher altitudes. This new fighter is designated the Bf 109 E-4/N. Crater the runways and render their base inoperable to put the E-4/N's out of action. - The airfield at Calais-Marck (BC21.7) is being used by an experimental group of elite pilots pioneering the use of fighter-bombers. Radio intecepts identify the unit as Erprobungsgruppe 210, flying Messerschmitt 109's & 110's. Their attacks come at high speed and low level and they are gone before we can even scramble. Knocking their base out for even a few hours would be a relief for our airfields and convoys. - The Germans have setup a ship detection radar at Cap Gris Nez (AZ20. which they are using to locate or convoys sailing through the Channel. Destroy the radar and any surrounding vehicles and structures. Chain Home RDF Instructions: Press Tab then 4. Mission then 1. Chain Home RDF. First, you must connect to a dispatch controller. Press 1. Select Dispatch Controller to see a list of controllers within range. For this mission connect to Luton (Ash). Once conntected to a controller select option 2. Get Radar Contacts for a report which will display in the chat console. Avoid using the 0. Back option, use Tab to exit instead. If you cannot connect to a controller you could be out of range. AIRSPAWNS "RAF airborne" for Beaufighter and Blenheim IV late are available. [Army Blue] <Name> Army Blue <Description> August 1940 – Hellfire Corner v1.3.1 Weather: Clear skies, winds from the W @ 2 m/s. Victory in France is ours. Now we must turn our attention to Britain. Bf 109 / Bf 110 Orders - Establish air superiority over South-East England. - Escort our bombers as they attack enemy shipping and airbases. - Enlist with Erprobungsgruppe 210 out of Calais-Marck and fly fighter-bombers against the targets listed below. Note there is a shortage among 50kg bombs and priority has been given to the Kampfgruppen. Ju 87 / Ju88 / He 111 / Erpr.Gr.210 Orders - Destroy English shipping in the Channel. Our Freya unit at Cap Gris Nez has detected enemy shipping sailing from Dover (AX23) towards Dungeness (AV20). Put these ships on the bottom of the Channel. - The British have setup large radio masts along their coastline that we believe is a primitive form of aircraft detection. Destroy the installations at Dover (AX23.9) & Dunkirk (AU25.3). Focus your attack on the buildings at the base of the towers. - Destroy the RAF airbases at Manston (AX26.3), Hawkinge (AW23.5), Lympne (AV23.2), & Eastchurch (AU26.5). Drop your bombs on runways, hangars, & workshops to knock the base out of action. Note: 40 points required to win mission. Ships & Chain Home sites are worth 1 pt each. Airfields are worth 10. AIRSPAWNS "CAI airborne" for BR20's are available.
