Too many mosquitoes
« on: September 17, 2005, 11:54:09 AM »
The objectives for frame three clearly stated a limit on the number of mosquitoes available to the Allies.

Mosquito (1 squad 4-6 based in Malta )

Yet there were 13 sorties of Mosquitoes during the frame.

Reviewing the raw CM logs.

I have checked both the objectives for both the Axis and the Allies (in case I made a typo to one or the other).

Both confirm that only a 4-6 squad of Mossies could fly out of Malta's airfield.

So have to see how many Mossies spawned and from where.

I just checked your objective GD, and they do limit the Mossies to 6 only.  I did not read them that closely when you sent them out.  The Allied orders did not mention any limit, so I was unaware that we were limited to 6.  I think our squad lifted with 11+ Mossies, but we would have been just as happy to lift with a mixture of P-38's or SpitIX's and Mossies.  I did not attend the event, so I am unaware of how this impacted the event.  Was there a problem with the logs?  I can't find those either.

TracerX,

According to the Frame Objectives, all other aircraft would have to up from either the Carriers or Tunisia. So in effect it did make a difference.

Okay .. I will get back to you all on this. The allied side will have a point penalty assessed. Have to factor that into things.
