Niiiiiice!

Was that me getting the 110 kill in Red Storm/Krupp Steel? I recall the event but can't recall if it was me or the guy flying next to me. There was much jubilation all around after that happened!

Flying a B-25 in a Scenario is on my AH "Things to do list" Wanting to fly Mossies beat it out this time around though. Maybe next one  :rock

Heh, not so much bait as plain-ol'e love for the Mitchell. It really is a fun plane to fly in scenarios. It's not as defended as a B-26 or B-24, but it is quite capable. I believe we hit EVERY target we needed in Red Storm and then some! The bomber war was definitively in our favor. It was the overall stats with fighters, GVs, base captures (part of the scenario) where the real winner was computed, but for our bomber part, we blew "zee german" off the map!

Nice!  Thanks for posting!

Those are from Red Storm/Krupp Steele, Philippine Phandango, and Tunisia:  Dawn of Battle, I think.

The B-25 has been an excellent addition to the game for scenarios!

Here's just one of many times I narrowly escaped in Red Storm (I think I mistakenly called it "Red Star" last time).

(Image removed from quote.)

Some Fw's chewed on me for a while but must have ran out of gas or ammo, and I slinked away. My gunner had no ammo left when we were done, and it was a VERY tense RTB knowing if anybody spotted me I was done for!


EDIT: Forgive the crappy graphics... At the time I was running minimum settings on an older machine.

Here's just one of few times I didn't narrowly escaped in Red Storm.




I nearly signed up for Mitchells again this time around, but ended up gaving in to the Luftwaffe.
