1st Multisquad Campaign Battle of Britain

[JG52Krupi]

Quick question on skins.

I did accidentally spawn with a custom skin but on realising this I changed to the skin labelled default.

My question is can the other default skins be used as I dislike the yellow nose skins as you can be easily spotted.

Yes the defualt "stock" skins should be uneffected I think. As Rudelmann siad we will be using a line from now on to regulate this.

I'm still buzzing from this. The closest we have currently to an online war, so you guys are to be commended!

JG13 are working on a drop-in stats script for missions.

Eventually it'll be able to connect to a mysql database similar to FBDj stats for 1946 but lack of documentation is making it slow going.

[Jatta Raso]

so is this still possible?

Sure thing, you will have to contact a participating Red/blue squad to fly along ( like ATAG, The Syndicate, 501 squadron ect ) for the Reddies, they take public players.
Otherwise you will have no briefing and we like to have organised flights and fights
We at 5./JG27 also take on public players. Numbers don't seem to be too big of a problem, blue is a little short on pilots but the choice is up to you.

Not true. II/KG76 operated Ju88's from Creil.

There are a few more groups I think

Regarding the spawn probs @ Ford. There were no SPAWN problems, but TAXI problems with hidden holes and bumps causing wild flips. Once we worked out a safe path to the runway it was all fine.

Since we are in the Calais strait next time are we able to operate No.501 from Gravesend? We had rotol Hurricanes there. No.56 operated Hurricanes out of North Weald.

I had a lot of issues on MP since the last patch but with lots of tweaking my PC and CloD seems to be more stable now.

No.501 are recruiting. You are welcome to join us if we take your fancy.

We operate JG26 though we are short on pilots for that crew, I'll try to get those guys in next time. We also operate No.64 squadron (Spitfires) and No.501 squadron (Hurricanes). Something for everyone.

Right, but Creil is located 5kmfrom the sourthern and 20km away from the eastern border of the map we have, what is immersion-killing to operate from. At least from my point of view.

I found no other KG equipped with Ju88 on the map, but didn´t use Creil on my template so far. Maybe I will add Creil, but I don´t think it is realy useful, where it is located.

SNAFU has a point, when I researched the bases generally what I found was KG's were actullay off the map in most cases...

The other headache was that the RAF used allot of satellite bases for the day/patrol... meaning you can really only get info for the main bases... Its a shame the Gladiator is not in the game, there were some RN bases on the last map.


The next mission we are running was one of the first I researched. It took about 40 hours and about another 20 to place everything. I also placed the british AAA batterys according to historical sites, as near as damn it. No information could be found for German AAA as they were more mobile at this time. Plus with allot of German things its hard to find docs, maps etc.


Some times you just have to draw the line between historical accuracy and getting it done this year...
