Title: Bomber pilots, we need you!
Post by: Brooke on May 13, 2007, 06:35:33 PM

We need many more Ju 88 pilots for the upcoming Operation Husky scenario.  This will be very interesting duty for bomber pilots, as we have the opportunity to do level bombing and also torpedo bombing against allied carriers and cruisers.

Operation Husky is a special-event scenario starting in June, based on the allied invasion of Sicily in 1943.  More information on this scenario is on ahevents.org here:

If you like to fly bombers and would like to join us for this battle, please register and list Ju 88's as your preference during registration.

I suspect that the LW bomber action in Operation Husky will be like a mixture of Stalin's Fourth and Coral Sea (given that we can level bomb and torpedo bomb in our Ju 88's):

Here's a pictorial of what the action was like in Stalin's Fourth:

Here's a pictorial from Coral Sea:

Bomber pilots are still needed for the upcoming dramatic action of Operation Husky and the battle for Sicily.

Come fly with III/KG 30 -- where heroes are made!  Whether you have played in scenarios before or not -- we want *you*.

Register today for the axis and Ju 88's! :)

Bor3d, Pearl is in the indefinite future with no concrete plans or timelines for it until further notice.

Operation Husky, though, is now!  Come on in for glorious duty in Ju 88's!  If you help save Sicily, you will have the appreciation of Italian women.

DarkHawk, exellent -- make sure to show up at or before the start time (as doors close at start time), and ask for me.  Off we will fly to glory and fame! :)
