Title: Setup for this week...SINK THE TIRPITZ
Post by: 1Duke1 on February 15, 2007, 11:39:20 PM
SINK THE TIRPITZ

The year is 1944. The Western Allies' bloody effort to
move supplies to the Soviet Union along the Murmansk
gauntlet is in full swing. Yet every officer in the
Admiralty, and every seaman and sailor on the ice-
coated ships, still fears the sudden appearance of
Germany's super battleship, "Tirpitz," which can
effortlessly sink an entire convoy if she chooses.
All attempts to sink her have thus far failed. Now the
carriers HMS Formidable and HMS Emperor, assisted
by long-range Mosquitos and Lancasters, will try again.

ALLIES (BISHOPS)

Land-based:

Lancaster
Mosquito
Spitfire Mark 8

Carrier-based:

Task Group 8:

F4U-1
F4U-1A
SBD-5
TBM

Task Group 37:

F6F-5
SBD-5
TBM


AXIS (ROOKS)

Bf-109G2
Bf-109G6
Bf-110G2
FW-190A5

Ju-88 at rear bases (A32-34)


NOTES:

The Tirpitz is represented by the fleet running between
A42 and A43. There are no planes on the carrier.

All ships are hardened to 125, the same setting as
towers and runways. You will need to drop 125 1000-lb
bombs on a ship to sink it, and it will regenerate in
approximately one minute.

OTHER SETTINGS:

Radar is historical to 1944:
Tower: 158,400
Sector: 343,200
Planes flying under 500 feet will be under the radar's
coverage.

Flight is disabled for the Knights....

DO NOT ATTACK KNIGHT BASES...
AGAIN, DO NO ATTACK KNIGHT BASES

Strat is disabled
Killshooter is OFF. Do not shoot friendlies.
Friendly collisions are off (carrier operations are virtually
impossible otherwise).
CV's are not controllable.
Fuel burn rate is 1.0
Visibility is 12 miles.
Ack settings are .25 for low-level ack, .1 for puffy ack.


Enjoy!

old idea was being done when i first entered the game.
it was mildly fun but way too easy especially if you get some numbers on the allied teams.

Maybe you have some ideas that haven't been already done? We (AvA Staff) are willing to listen to some new ideas, at least I am, if they're historical and can be done (even close enough) with the terrains and planes we have available in AH.

Anyways, haven't had this one in a while, looks good to me. :)

Ya know what.. one of you cracked your pie hole hoping to make a smart point and I offered to show you how to attract more players..

"youll get right on that"  is exactally the attitude and the reason why Abandoned VS Absent is the way it is.

Seems the "attitude" started when you got here.  A quick review of your recent posts will prove this out. (http://forums.hitechcreations.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=198345)

I am new to the AVA staff and so I am the only one on a leash. I don't tell any of them what to do.

A little common courtesy would go a long way especially if you expect it in return.

I received your PM and sent you a reply. Thanks for the suggestions.

Have we done any hypothetical scenarios?  I don't recall any but...my memory is....not so much.

Be neat to try a 'what if'.  What if Russia didn't stop at Berlin and the allies were forced to fight off the communist horde.  Could maybe even use the BoB map to do it.  Just change the German bases with German planes to Russian planes.

US/UK vs USSR all late war rides....maybe even bring in the Italians on the allies side.

Dunno if it's a great idea, but would be interesting.  (I love the Yaks)
