Title: Another 1.10 planes setup in the Combat Theater
Post by: Buzzbait on July 12, 2002, 02:59:46 AM

"The Siege of Malta" Spring 1942

Bishop are Axis

Knight are British and U.S.

Malta is under seige by the combined forces of Italy and Nazi Germany.

It is unclear if the island, key to the chances of Britain holding
onto North Africa, will survive.

Axis win if they take all locations on Malta.

British win if they hold.

LVT's are only enabled on Convoy Task Groups

C-47's are only enabled for the Axis, and only at one Field.

Italian and German airfields are separate.

I seem to recall that a significant number of Spitfire Mk Vs were used to defend Malta.

Was that later, or is this just the anti-Spitfire PC police rearing their heads?

hmmmm, anti-spitfire police, could be useful... ;)

No, from what I understand at the ct forum the SpitV arrives vs the 109G-2, i.e. mid 1942.

karnak I think you've got a tad paranoic here ;). Watch the date: spring 1942. Spits weren't still present at that stage.


The only "but" I see in this setup is the lack of a German divebomber. I think that the SBD should be enabled in german fields to emulate the Stuka presence in the mediterranean :).

other than that the setup is veery nice :)

I know, but I want a stuka or something like a stuka ;). They were there so why not having them? :)

Stuka would be neat, suicide, but neat.
