Title: Decide what Brooke should fly in October's Tunisia Scenario
Post by: Brooke on August 01, 2016, 03:15:44 AM: In Scenarios, I often try to pick what I think will be the least-favored role on the least-favored side and fly that (torpedo bombers, He 111's, Il-2's, etc.).

This time, we will have a vote -- and *you* can decide what I fly. :aok

I would love to fly P-39's the most, and would secondarily love to fly P-40's or C.202's. However --

I will be bringing 5 guys with me who are not suited to fighters, and I want to fly with them and be their GL. I use Scenarios as a way to get new people in AH, and I go out and try recruiting people I know or meet to fly with me in Scenarios if I think they might enjoy it. If I get them, I then spend hours before the Scenario getting them up to speed and training them. I can get them up to speed in bombers or attack planes, so I need to restrict it to that.

We have too many people for B-26's, and B-17's (also, those are premier planes, so I stay away from those); and the B-25's will likely have Beefcake for GL. I don't want to take up the FW 190F's on the LW side, as that is too good a plane for us to use them all up. That leaves the following -- see next message.

Post by: Brooke on August 01, 2016, 03:33:15 AM: If you don't want me to be on your side, this is your chance to cast a vote for me being on the other side! :aok

If you don't care, please either (1) vote for me to be on whichever side you think will have it hardest or (2) vote for me to be in whichever of the three planes you think will have it the worst. :aok

Please consider deploying your group in the Douglas A-20. We'll see you in Casablanca.
