Announcing April Scenario -- Operation Konrad

[Rocco]

We looked at this from an overall balance perspective, while still trying to maintain some historical accuracy. Yes the Bostons are more survivable than Ju-88s due to their speed, but for the JABO missions the 190F-8s are more survivable than A-20s.

I'm thinking it will be OK.  I will be flying Bostons/A-20's/Ju 88's/190F's in the scenario.

I've flown Ju 88's and Bostons a lot in scenarios.  Bostons and Ju 88's are both in the mid tier of survivability.  (Top being B-17/B-24/B-26/Tu-2; mid being Boston/Ju 88/Lanc;  Mossie between top and mid.)  Mainly because, although Bostons are fast, defensive guns on Boston are hard for most pilots to hit with.  So Bostons take longer to catch, but once caught, have harder time than Ju 88 breaking off an attacker.

Also, as Rocco notes, 190F is a bit better jabo than A-20 (a little faster, better roll, smaller, harder to hit).  So overall perhaps evens out.

Any thoughts of ever adding ground vehicles to a scenario? After doing just a little bit of reading on this battle, It had a fair number of Tanks involved in it with the breakout Attempt. Might be a good way to get GVers involved Scenarios and more people involved in general.

If I remember correctly a longgggggg time ago there was a GV portion of a Tunisia scenario… there was a ton of people back then though and the attack was supported with air cover, it was super cool

I'm pretty sure that was the only scenario I flew in back in the day.  I think I have screenshots saved somewhere.
