Orders sent out for "Britain Alone, 1940"

I did receive the orders.

Don't mean to be a wet blanket here but I believe there have only been 3 frames since I last CO'd one. It was my understanding that every squad participating would share in this responsibility. Tell me if I'm mistaken and I'll get to work on the orders right away.


Maybe it was 4 frames, still, there are what 8 squads per side. I don't want to deprive anyone the chance to command.

The last frame you CO'd was Nov 14th I believe (about 2 months ago).  As long as there is one fulll SOp (3 frames) between your last time COing then you are considered for the job and expected to do it.

daddog will not be calling on you for his next month so the earliest you will be called on again is March.  I can be bribed to leave you name off of the 'promotions list' .....

Well, ok, however, there must be at 3-4 COs that have not commanded a frame since I did last. If you need someone to keep track of who's turn it is let me know.

I sent another copy with the planeset added, please note there is no Ju88 used in frame 1.

Of the 8 RAF squads, Stream and myself CO'd last event, that leaves 6 to pick, and with a different CO every frame...well, somebody has to do it.

And me and another the event before. If we are the only ones willing to do it I'd just like to know so I can make the appropriate assignment for the ***** detail, er, suicide mission, er, special assignment. ;)

Not complaining, myself, but just to let you know, I CO'ed frame 3 last month and have frame 3 again this month.

No need to change it on my account, just thought I ought to point it out.  Perhaps if we had a running account of who has CO'ed and who is due for CO duty, it might help.  Personally, it doesn't bother me either way, but it might bother others.

BTW, I dont yet have access to the Axis Friday SO private forum.

Thats the trouble with it, you may end up with others like myself and Stream who also CO'd (or are CMing)....you end up with a bunch that did on the same side for the next event.

We will see that we give a break to those that stepped up now over the last two series. I also appreciate the help guys.

Mystical, are you CO'ing for Drone this week, or is this permanent?

BTW, Axis orders will go out late monday night (EST).
