Sancho, I agree, but there's nothing we can do about the planeset. We gotta work with what we have, and I'd rather have a BoB with Ju88s only than no BoB at all.

Of course, we when run this one again after 1.10 comes out, we can force the Ju88s to fly in multi bomber formations with the drones. Why you ask? because they have to go slower to keep the drones with them. Each drone lost will count against the LW side, so maybe they won't be as apt to dive away so drastically as they did in the past TOD. I dunno, I think Sundog had that idea on the CM forum. We'll have to see how 1.10 works in practice in the MA first.
However... Ju88s diving away in the Battle of Britain after releasing ordnance was historical. (banana found and posted this in the CM forum)

Wotan, your post was exactly what I was looking for. The reason I gave the orders like I did was so you could be historical if you wanted, or not historical if you wanted to do a "what if" for one of your objectives. I thought the London objective was definitely no 110s in JABO roles tho, just 109s and Ju88s. I hope I didn't get the planes mixed up with the other objective!

I'll start triple checking my plane assignments next time. edit: As to the RAF plane breakdown. There were always 3 Hurricane flights and 2 Spitfire flights. I thought 3-2 would be better than 4-1. I'd have liked 4-2, but we don't have that many players.

Dux, your TBM flight got nailed because I think a whole squad didn't show up that frame.

Usually it's the IJN that get undermanned in the late war Pac stuff we've done. Believe me, your TBMs were supposed to have escort, unless the Frame CO thought they could sneak you in... I dunno for sure. However, I think a big reason the TODs weren't "successful" in the beginning was we didn't have as many squads and we had 3 targets per side. That meant hitting 3 targets and defending 3 targets. Plus we didn't group the smaller squads together and we'd have a small squad run into a large squad. So what I did in the BoB is try to make it so every Flight had a minimum commitment of 11-12 pilots. Hopefully, we're on the right track with that and we'll have good fights in terms of numbers.
Hopefully, 1.10 will be out before July and we can get you guys an Early Pac TOD after Skernsk's Germany TOD.
