Overlord I - Day One

Post by StoneAge »

Day One:
Seeing as there has been very little recon done in this zone. Lastest photo taken 14 days ago. looks like the first day will be spent reconing the area and a few how are you raids just to see what falls out of the tree.

Day:
Sending in some Typhoon IB to go after his long range radar

Night:
Using Mosquito's with oboe to attack oil as it will have a recon flight early in the day.

Raid Results Day 1
Raid 4 & 5 missed their targets and went to there secondary. The typhoons angainst troop did some good damage but lost 2 planes shot down and about 4 more damaged. Don't think I should use typhoons against troop's again.

Overlord I - Day 2

Post by StoneAge »

Day 2
Running most of my day bombers down the one stream with cloud at 55% I think there will be a lot of missed targets today. I want him to come up and play so I can see the airfields he is currently using.

Bomber command did not do very well last night. Tonight will attack rail and all oil with all planes only Squadron with morale under 50 percent dont fly.

This is my first major push

as units loss morale I am looking to put up at least 6 x 100/150 bmr attacks with 3 rail and 3 airfield targets a day

Medium's will attack close in targets (eg airfields/rocket/rail) for the first few days and then switch to troop/ground attack,

Day 2 Raid Results

As I though many raids missed all there targets and the ones that did hit did very little damage. Good news the germans came up to play in force and suffered for it.

Post by StoneAge »

Day 3:
Very little cloud, so we have an all out day attack. The 1st,2nd and 3rd are split into 7 raids today going back over the same airspace. This time they should hit there targets.

Very few groups left on the ground about 5 from 2nd div as their morale was under 60.

trying to take out the last long range radar with 2nd tac, looking at the map now I missed sending a raid to the long range rader just outside paris Doh!!

Night bombers will not fly tonight
