Hi SEE

Thanks for the mission. Much appreciated.
I must say, I enjoyed playing it, even if the first time around I got shot down.
(I don't use icons, so it was only after getting shot at that I realised which ground forces the Jerries were.)

The second time around, unfortunately I was unable to stop German forces taking over the airfield.
I got involved in a dogfight with a BF110, and sustained some damage to my aircraft and also got wounded.
This is what I was seeing for most of the mission:


I did manage to shoot down the 110, before flying around looking for the Ansons for a while.
I eventually saw an Anson and was escorting it for a while before getting tangled up with 109's. I was almost out of ammo and decided to let the Anson get out of there whilst myself and my wingman kept the 109s busy.

Because of my lack of success during the 1st phase, the remainder of the mission was pretty difficult and eventually I crash landed near the airfield where the Anson had landed.

I liked the mission a lot, and I think it would have been better had the comms been working. The AI was also at it's irritating worst, doing rollls like crazy...not your fault of course. Just saying.

If I may suggest something, I think it would have been nice to be forewarned that the player starts in the air. I was scrambling for the radiator lever in a mild panic at first.
Also, perhaps it would have been nice to have some AA cover at the airfield where the player is supposed to land.
After tussling with several enemy aircraft, and having being shot to hell, I was dismayed that after my mad scramble to the airfield with three 109's on my tail, that there was not the slightest bit of help forthcoming from the airfield.

But I did appreciate the fact that the mission's difficulty was dependant on the players own actions, and certainly it was pretty intense throughout.

I'm not sure if I was successful in the mission or not...I didn't see any messages confirming it. One Anson landed, one didn't...it may have been shot down, I'm not sure.

Rattlehead, what is the name of the information window you have on your screen (the airplane damage information)?

The name? I just left it by default. (?) I'm not sure I understand what you mean.

Just tried the mission: pure enjoyment and the best I flew on ClOD.
The triggers and successive objectives really add to game ,
Congratulations and thanks,

Great job and the video looks fantastic!

I noticed that you fly with mirrors on! doesn't this cause you a massive decrease in fps?
