[SAS~Poltava]

This is updated from DBW, but it has really been updated A LOT, I assure you. Almost everything is possible in BAT! 



This is a semi-historical, 14-mission static campaign, set between June and October 1938, during the big Japanese Campaign to take Wuhan in Central China,  the longest, largest and perhaps most significant battle of the entire Second Sino-Japanese War.\n\nYou are a Japanese pilot in Fighter Sentai of the Japanese Army Airforce (JAAF), flying the nimble but slow and undergunned Kawasaki Ki-10 "Perry". The action on the ground follows history, and many missions follows what actually happened in the air during this campaign.

The Sino-Japanese war starting in 1937 was the result of a decades-long Japanese aggressive imperialist policy aiming to dominate China politically and militarily and to secure its vast economic resources. After a series of small, local engagements fought during the thirties, in July 1937 Japan started a direct invasion. Initially the Japanese scored major victories, taking Shanghai after heavy fighting, and by the end of the year also captured the Chinese capital of Nanking - brutally killing hundreds of thousands of civilians in the process.

At the start of 1938, the Japanese government and GHQ had in effect lost control of the Japanese army in China. With so many victories achieved, the Japanese field generals escalated the war. Afraid of getting bogged down in a endless war of attrition they deployed most of their armies in China in order to attack the city of Wuhan, which by now was the new political, economic and military center of China, hoping to force the Chinese Kuomintang government to sue for a peace in all ways beneficial to Japan. The result was the epic struggle for Wuhan. It lasted four and half months, was the longest, largest and perhaps the most significant battle of the entire Second Sino-Japanese War, and one of the largest land campaigns of the 20th century prior to WW2. "When Tigers Fight" tries to portray the fighting in the air during this crucial battle from the JAAF point of view.

All missions make extensive use of Checkyersix’s GREAT Command & Control Mod with a number of randomizers, which means that the time of day, the weather, the skill and composition of the opposition will vary A LOT, even if you replay the same mission twice. The missions will still never be exactly the same, thanks to the C&C Mod!







Thanks for looking!
