Upcoming Set-up
« on: September 25, 2002, 02:41:16 PM »
Allies

a1- Mossie

a2-Typhoon

a3-p47d11

a4-spit 9

a5-p38
(the ammo bunkers at a5 will be destroyed and max rebuild time will be set: there will be no ord for the p38)

a6-p51b

a7-b17

a8-b17

a9-b26

a10-Bostons

a11-a20g

a12-b17

a13-Lancaster

a14-Lancaster

a15-Lancaster

a27 (Italy) - B17 / Lancaster / p47d-11 / p51b / mossie

I decided to allow the p38 even though its an "L" version. However I have decided to disable it ord. I did this because the factories have no light aaa.

I assigned a 1 plane type per field. This shouldnt be a problem since all the allied air basesare relatively close. I did it this way to force bombers and escorts to actually "form up".

Axis

a16-109g6 / 190a5

a17-109g6 / 190a5

a18-109g6 / 190a5

a19-109g6 / 190a5 / 190a8

a20-109g6 / 190a5

a21-109g6 / 190a5 / 190a8

a22-109g6 / 190a5 / 190a8

a23-109g6 / 190a5 / 190a8 / 110g2

a24-109g6 / 190a5 / 190a8 / 110g2

a25-109g6 / 190a5 / 190a8 / 110g2

a26-109g6 / 190a5 / 190a8 / 110g2

The Sturmbocks (190a8s and 110g2s) are the primary bomber defense planes. they are stationed further inland and around the strat objects. The 109s and 190a5s are the scouts / fighter interceptors and are stationed everywhere.

The radar settings will be maxed out (50miles). There a lot of terrain thats out side of radar coverage. I dont wont folks flying around blind and bored. If we get real good numbers I will reduce radar range. Radar will be set to 0 feet. This will stop noe raids. In real life theres no way bombers could fly from england all the way across france unseen to hit german factories. Plus the strat complexes have no aaa, just 88 flak. I will leave 88 flak lethality to main standards. If it proves to stong or to weak I will adjust it.

Structure hardness and aaa lethality will be to main standards. If it becomes apparent that the allies are using there attack aircraft to kill all the axis fhs I may up structure hardness and aaa lethality. I dont wont to stop fighter/bomber and med bomber raids against lw fields but it will get real boring should the lw not be able to fly.

The fuel modifier will be to main standards 2.0. If these needs adjustment later I will change it.

I will set 3 wind layers

14 - 16k = 20 mph n to s
24 - 26 k = 25 mph s to n
30 and above = 30 mph wing east to west.

I did this to discourage 30k + bombers and escorts. you will burn more fuel and it will take you longer to get to target with this head wind. I may increase or decrease it later on.

This set up is different then any other. It may or may not work. Save your whining. I know there may be opportunities to "game" this setup. I dont know how great an appeal this setup will have to the bomber folks. However, its the bomber guys that will make this set up work. The idea is for the allied bombers to get into germany and bomb the strat. The allied fighters are to cover them and the axis are trying to stop them. There will be no field capture but the allies can and will attack lw bases.

Criticism is welcomed. If this doesnt work or appeal to you tell me why. I have hopes that we will all enjoy this.

Big Week

Tell all your friends and squaddies and spread the word to the main guys. The more folks we get in the ct the better this set up will be.

Looks good to me.  I like these radar settings.

I like your design approach Wotan.  Looks like a very sweet setup.  Hmm, maybe I should take next week off :)

I highly suggest anyone planning on playing in this set up print the above order of battle out.  It will save time base hopping to find the ride you're looking for.  Looking forward to trying this one out, Wotan.
