****Campaign is fixed and ready to download****

Here is part 1 of the Battle of Britain, The Channel War.  This is a 16 mission Semi Historic Static Campaign built in BAT 4.2.1 Flashpoint.  You will fly for the No. 65 Squadron with the Spitfire Mk I, out of RAF Hornchurch.

Battle the Luftwaffe as they attempt to gain Air Superiority.



I have tried to make it somewhat realistic. You will be faced with a lot of German planes coming at you. I have limited them in fuel so they stay for a bit, then head home to land.

Thanks Kevin...Part I? Is there a part II coming?

[KevinHoggard]

Yes I am currently working on it. Just got done with August 18th.

Have you, or is it possible to do anything to limit enemy a/c singling out the player, exacerbated when large numbers are involved? In Monty's BoB campaign, I was chased across the channel by 24 Spitfires....plenty of other targets to choose.....but nooooo, they had to have me! Therefore I'm sceptical when ever large numbers are involved..... no offence.

[KevinHoggard]

In playing it, I haven’t found that to happen to me. I did limit fuel for both sides so maybe that has something to do with it? The Luftwaffe has 40-50% fuel to start with, and I placed them with landing points so they will try to head back

3 missions into the campaign so far, one fairly large combat and I only had one dogfight in it. TBH, I've never experienced this problem in Il-2.Sometimes I was attacked by 4-6 enemy fighters, but never by more than that. I'd even say that I had the opposite - a number of times in some Luftwaffe campaigns I'd engage a vic of Hurricanes that had recently disengaged and they wouldn't put up a fight, just making some basic evasive maneuvers.

I just finished the first mission, and it was crazy! I was sure my little rig would give me a slideshow for frame rates, but it was surprisingly smooth. I was expecting a huge battle after watching your movie (also nice, BTW), but I really wondered if all of those planes would be too much. Well, I forgot all about that when the info started coming in . . . I'm loving your use of the triggers. This was a very immersive mission. I managed two kills while my wingman was keeping my six clear. It was real tempting to go after the bombers, but I had more fun taking the fighters down, as per your mission brief. "Let the Hurris have the worries", ahaha!

Thank you, Kevin.
For a nice Saturday afternoon.

Thanks Bird… remember this is just the start of BoB. Part 2 may be a little more intense lol. Thanks for providing feedback, it means a lot. So many times campaign makers don’t get constructive criticism to make the experience even better for the player

[Alien_12]

This campaign is crazy, I've never had such BoB experience and I'd played many others! Huge thumbs up for the proper German bomber formations with 3 planes in a flight instead of the usual 4, and for the very reasonable numbers of aircraft. I'm not too deep into the campaign yet, so far I completed 4, maybe 5 missions, but the last one I flew was one of my top 5 experiences with the game since I first played it. Thank you very much!

[KevinHoggard]

Thanks I’m glad you’re enjoying it…

Only played one mission so far, but it was a blast.
