We will have a BoB scenario every year......every time the CAP campaign rolls back to 1940.

It's certainly possible, Ramzey; but of course there's questions:

A simple re-run of last years event or a redesign?

Same terrain or a new one?

etc etc.

Personaly; I'm in strongly in favour not only of a rerun, but also of re-using last years design; which was one of the best I've ever seen. However, that design sinks or swims on the quality of the RAF controllers, and believe me, that's one hell of a stressfull task.

Any others for/against a rerun?

frankly  i not remeber rules, setups in details
I was only sectio/flight leader so not care about that.

Possibly Scenarion need som fixes and improvments as every need. And i think its not much to do.
But im on re-run

Terrain we current have is good, so i not see reason of change or build it again. Allways can be improved to match better in skins and look.

Possibly we can play this scenarion after AH2 relase, who know mby personal skins or marking....... and other AH2 improvements.

I can be wrong but  ju87 wa snot used in this scenario. It was before drones and bf110?.

So here is a field to add som things.


Even if we just re-run i will be happy too.

BoB setup is allways most wanted and liked on CT

I'd love a rerun, with what changes can sensibly be made to improve things.

As a for instance, I'd like to see some Ju87s in the next one. I'd like even more to see some He111s or Do17s, if possible!

I'd VERY much like to see the Ju88 given a sensible amount of fuel to play with, because as things stood last year, the Ju88 overperformed in everything except range, and the lack of range badly affected the LW's options, whilst the overperformancedue to the weirdness of the loadout/settings combination meant the RAF had a harder time catching the LW bomber than they should have.

I'd like to see longer frames - even if only by half an hour.

And I'd even volunteer to go RAF as a controller if it'd help things along (and if the RAF CO is happy for me to do that job.) Always been meaning to try the RAF side of a BoB game one day, this year is as good a time as any to do so.

Some updates to the terrain would be nice - like adding a few of the major railway lines, just for their visual effect.

Oh aye - nearly forgot - I'd like to see Otto gunnery for the buffs, unless at least a third of the buff trios are carrying players as gunners as well. The current system for buff defensive gunnery is a serious flaw.  (Suggestion; maintain current system plus inaccurate Otto for guns NOT under human direction)

He111s, Do17s and Otto gunners are unfortunety not possible and probably won't be until some time after AH2 is released.  

The rest is though :D.

Ramzey,

Next thursday I'll be running a a little bit of BoB in your time zone.

By all means bring your lot along and see how they do against the Finns.

As for this :frankly i not remeber rules, setups in details
I was only sectio/flight leader so not care about that.


all I can say is : Yeah, riiight :)

You not being aware of every posible interpretation of the rules is as likey as me actually landing as kill.

Unless it's you; of course

:D

We currently have scenario projects in planning / loosely scheduled from now until May 2004...........

BoB is not one of them.............

We could run Bob in the August 2004 slot if popular demand requested it...........

Tilt, new scenarions are great add-on
Its good thing for players who are here long time. As something new to play.

BoB is imho, most wanted and most knowed scenario ever.
Many new players never play them and its best scenario to convince SEA is great. I feel best spirit in 2 AH scenarios , BoB and Guadalcanal. Let new players touch this spirit.

And about planned scenarios. CM's know, players not know how looks future in this. My suspicion is Okinawa, what else?

I can advise the following under the understanding that stuff happens and "events" can cause changes to plans.

Currently under active planning

August Okinawa

November  Kadesh (we are sponsoring artiks design of the Suez conflict)

February 2004 Rhur Valley

Currently in pre planning

Allocated May 2004 ( we are considering sponsoring a player designed eastern front scenario which has been submitted)

Possible August 2004(Battle of the Bulge)

However if a player wants to put together a scenario concept based around BoB or enough folk want us to re run BoB (2002 )with some changes [stuka, etc and others].I am sure we could consider that for August 2004 and Bulge would move to November2004.

Frankly our goal is to bring something new in every scenario whilst also imroving the product...........

Future looks good:)

Kadesh? was any battle of Kadesh during ww2?
even we talk about post ww2 event we not have planset for this
and never will have. Using substitutes of planes are pitfull
