Greetings!
The big Defense of the Realm mission we've been running for the last while appears to be a bit much to ask of the couple or so players who venture over to our server (great for organized groups, but not so much for the average public wanderer), so I've begun creating simple little missions that, while still using the big BoB map, are designed to give enjoyment to smaller numbers of players. They're intended to be fun, historically themed if not historical, and offer a challenge to individual skills.
The first of these is now up!
Mission: Dowding's Inspection
Concept of Operations: Air Chief Marshall Dowding is inspecting Hawkinge Airfield and the enemy has found out! The ACM likely to be found in a British racing green sports car parked near various airfield installations as he makes his tour. He might also be down at the local pub near the church on the eastern side of the field having a meal and a chat with his pilots!
RED Objective: Protect the ACM at all costs. There are several decoy vehicles around the field, so it might take the enemy time to get the right one. Let's hope luck is on our side. His inspection will take about an hour and then he returns to London and relative safety.
BLUE Objective: Destroy the Tommy commander's car before he gets away! He's probably taking a nap in it, the lazy Englander.
Special Notes: The mission makes use of: Salmo's Random Weather, Vogler's Frontlines, TheEnlightenedFlorist's despawn scripting, randomized target (the correct vehicle to destroy will be different each time the mission runs)
RED Aircraft: Hurricane Mk.I Rotol 100oct, Spitfire Mk.Ia 100oct
BLUE Aircraft: 109 E1/E3/E4, 110 C4, JU87
Like I said, simple and goofy, but I think a lot of fun. Please give it a go! It should work very well with smaller numbers of players such as sometimes occurs during the North America evening hours and it will rotate quickly (ever hour).
S!
