the short version:
Up from a land base, fly around getting kills within radar-range of a friendly carrier (or carrier group), and then re-arm at a land base, re-up again, go back to the carrier, get more kills within the Carrier's radar range, then land at base.
*must up from a land-base.
*must re-arm at a land-base at least once.
*must get some kills within the radar range of a friendly Carrier.
*must land at a land-base, and Carrier must be alive when you land.
It could have increasing degrees... get a total of 1 kill, then 5, 10, 20, 40?
No we don't have Battleships, but we do have neat cv group convoys.
Just info:
Pre-info: May of 1941: The Prinz Eugen was with the Bismarck when Bismarck killed the Hood, but then the Bismarck got sank west of France, Prinz Eugen survived.
going west and around England in either direction was dangerous!
German Battleships Scharnhorst and Gneisenau, and the cruiser Prinz Eugen, were all parked at a port in Brest, which is the northwest tip of France. It was getting kinda hectic over there so the idea was to get all three back to Germany's home waters. So on the night of February 11th, 1942, at 9:14pm they left Brest, headed through the English Channel, remained undetected for 12hours, until the next morning, and it was on! German fighters ruled the day, upping from land bases, escorting, and re-arming at forward bases along the coast... until the ships got through.
It has been about 360 YEARS since any enemy ships got through England's channel.
