Malta Sunderlands - A Campaign for BAT!
« on: April 20, 2019, 04:29:12 PM »

I have converted another of my old DBW 4.10 campaigns to BAT: "Malta Sunderlands":



This is a 6-mission static campaign portraying the activities of a Malta based Short Sunderland Squadron during the fall of 1942. The worst period of the siege of Malta is just over, but the action in the air is still brisk and deadly. You will perform a number of mission typical of the Short Sunderland: long range sea recce, u-boat hunts, bombing raids, rescue operations. You will be based in Calafrana on Malta, which historically was the base for these flying boats during the air and sea battles for Malta.

You can download it here: http://www.mission4today.com/index.php?name=Downloads3&file=details&id=2294



Randomness
There is a very strong random element in this campaign. Firstly in the manner that each mission comes in three different versions, the game picking one of them by random. Secondly in that the campaign makes intensive use of Checkyersix's revolutionary Command and Control Mod - which I think you know I love! These factors are randomized in the missions:
•   Time of Day
•    Weather. Most missions uses Dynamic Weather, which means that the weather can actually change during your flight. Go  from better to worse, and vice versa. And if not Dynamic Weather is used, then the weather is simply randomized at mission start.
•   Skill of both opponents and crews on your own side.
•   Number of opposing aircraft or surface vessels. Sometimes, due to this randomizer, there will be no opposition at all, and your mission will turn out completely uneventful - just like in real life!

This means that if you replay a mission or the whole the campaign the chance that it will turn out exactly the same again is very, very small.



Thanks to CY6’s “C&C” Mod you will also have the following functions in your aircraft: a working surface radar (very important in this type of campaign), a navigator, a spotter and a gunner. Great fun, and essential in the types of missions you will be performing here.

Included in this campaign are also 3 SKINS, made by expert skinners Stanislao and Dona. Thanks guys!

Thanks for looking!  :)

Thanks Sik! Just trying to give something back to the community. And having the chance of combining, in different ways, the efforts of so many talented modders is just pure fun!

I am most impressed by the latest BAT updates and will hopefully find time to convert many more of my old campaigns, and even build some new ones!  :)
