Thursday snapshot "Operation Dynamo" on the Nov 23rd.
« on: November 21, 2006, 01:33:27 AM »
Gentlemen, welcome to the Operation Dynamo.

It is end of May in the 1940 and the British Expeditionary Force is being evacuated from the beaches of Dunkirk. RAF is tasked to fly combat air patrol and protect the evacuation ships in the channel. Herman Goring has boasted no British Soldier would leave French soil alive and Luftwaffe is doing its best to destroy the evacuation force and the encircled British army.

RAF has Hurricane Mk1 and Spitfire Mk1 at its disposal.
Luftwaffe is flying with Bf109E and Bf110C.

You can read more of the real Operation Dynamo from this link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Dynamo in wikipedia.

Description and setup of the snapshot can be found from ahevents.org site.


The Operation Dynamo will start on the Nov 23rd at 3pm Eastern (21 CET) in the Special Events Arena.

All are welcome, this is a snapshot and registration is not required. Please be in the arena some 15 minutes before the start time.

That was one hard fight with lots of players!
We had total of 23 players, which provided an excellent snapshot.

The RAF did its best in flying air cover for the evacuation force and suffered very heavy losses. Only one of the total of eleven RAF pilots managed to return to base.

Luftwaffe managed to sink two british ships, but lost also most of its aircrafts in the process.

Allied scores:
4x Bf110 = 80
4x Bf109 = 60
Total 140 p

Axis scores:
2x ships = 300p
9x Spits/Hurris = 135p
Total 435 p

Clear axis victory


The logs can be found from the ahevents.org site.
