Guys,
I've been messing around with AVA ideas for years. I've thought about making my ideas into Snapshots or Sunday Euro Campaign scenarios.
I think they would work out well in AVA if numbers fill out there. I've given them the name "Legends Series" based on famous units or pilots from WWII.
Also based on historic squadrons that operate in AH II. Some could cover two units with one scenario.
They use less aircraft and have a sharper focus than a normal AVA setup, however they run three frames of two frames of two days each with the last frame running three days.
The examples below are my initial batch mainly focus on units or personalities from the war I'm most familiar with.
Sabouro Sakai
Frame-1 Days 1 and 2 China SE Asia 1939/40
IJN:
A6M2
B5N Level Bombers with Formations ON.

Focus is the Japanese Naval air attacks on China.
Frame-2 Days 3 and 4 High Tide Lae 1942

Frame-2 Days 3 and 4 Ramjãger 1944

BF-109G-10
FW-190A8
USAAF:
P-38J
P-47D11/D20
P-51B
B-17G

Frame-3 Days 5 6 and 7. The Final Ordeal

USAAF:
P-51D
B-17G
B-24
RAF:

VVS:

Focus is JG-3's struggle to battle three different Air Force's in the closing days of WWII.
I have other Scenarios in the works based on other famous units and well known AHII squadrons to include...
49th FG The Fighting 49ers.
JG-54 Grun Herz
325th Checkertails
VF-10 Grim Reapers
VF-17 Jolly Rogers
JG-11
JG-27 Afrika
Fleet Air Arm
Blue Nosers
353rd FG
I'm also working on RAF, VVS and Italian Air Force ideas.
Every scenario focuses on the subject unit's aircraft and historic campaigns as closely as possible.
Ideally I'd like to see others write scenarios for their own squads.
I thought once I have them polished up they might be worth giving a try in the AVA. Comments or questions welcomed.
