For Judge, BoB 7 day Campaign

[Hard Sarge]

after a bit, I will see about moving this to the AAR area, but wanted to be sure Judge seen it first

okay as the title says, a 7 day campaign in BoB as the LW vs the RAF

how I think or do things (not that this is the right idea or plan, but just how I do things)

the 7 day campaign, the LW has to knock out the major/Primary/Sector airfields, and knock down the RAF, with out, getting too many of it's own planes knocked down

the LW has the edge in Numbers, and they make the calls, the RAF has to react to what the LW does, but, in fighters, they are close

[Hard Sarge]

that is a clean slate for both sides at start


the plots for the day, the Airfields are the prise, but, other targets will be hit here and there, just to keep the RAF honest

[Hard Sarge]

the deep raids are at night, along with some intruders

the details

(I am also doing testing on the patch, working on other areas, so really am not plotting all day long raids, most of my stuff, will be short and to the point, normally I would doing more of spread in time, to keep the RAF in there cockpits and getting tired)

[Hard Sarge]

I have moved some of my Fighter Gruppen closer to the front from Luft 3, so opening moves in the south are a little weak

the results of the first day's action

[Hard Sarge]

not what you would call, a great day

maybe the losses will be better ?

also, you see my intruder picked off at least one English Night fighter (claims two)

[Hard Sarge]

my fighters did a great job, they protected the bombers well, of course, that didn't help with there bombing !!!


the summery screen for the day

[Hard Sarge]

a decent first day, but I didn't knock out the easy targets, so that means I got to go back, and maybe back again, but I got a little padding in the score, in case, I make a mistake and get pounded

a wild party was held at the base of JG 51, but CO's order it was cut short, got a mission to fly in the morning

[Hard Sarge]

just in case, this has been going on for a few days, been taking snap shots of it, now trying to put them in order to show them, so not going into too much detail

Day turn

the plotting for day 2

[Hard Sarge]

I want to take Tangmare out, raids into 10 Group are to keep them busy, will hit in the middle again, while trying to slip a raid deeper to hit hit Debden

[Hard Sarge]

I think I need some new bomber pilots !!!

for damage, day two was a bust

we trade losses even up, and I gain 5 points (well, more then that, the RAF is repairing the damage done from day 1, so, will have to do damage to keep up) but still in the long run, I scored 5 points for day 2, the RAF closed the gap

and I still only have one field shut down (slightly)

[Hard Sarge]

day 3, time for blood, got to hurt the RAF and close down some fields

the raids for day 3

[Hard Sarge]

this is a all day affair, time to teach the English a lesson or two (wrong order)

[Hard Sarge]

and again

[Hard Sarge]

hitting center, hitting right, hitting left, all day long

the RAF has been getting the upper hand all day long, but are starting to wear out, which is why I saved some of fighters for later in the day, my boys are rested

[Hard Sarge]

but, the RAF is everywhere

[Hard Sarge]

the 110s are even helping out

[Hard Sarge]

long bloody day, my guys are worn out

[Hard Sarge]

the losses are not as good as they look, I caught some Biplane wonders and some defainces late in the day, those 13 were sitting ducks

[Hard Sarge]

summery for the end of day 3

day 4, will be a simi day of rest, my troops are worn out, need repair, but got to keep some pressure on, so raids to the middle, I going to nail those two airfields yet

[Hard Sarge]

day 3 put me over the hump, to lose, the battle, I got to lose it

a simi day of rest
