Thread: New campaing (maybe)

    Default New campaing (maybe)

    Hey guys,

    I was thinking about starting a campaign like now.
    But the problem is the scenario. I guess the most plausible one would be Mediterranean or North Africa, as i have British/French planes + Belgium one. My axis are composed of 2 Italian and 2 german planes (which i would fly).
    So is it a good idea? Any help appreciated.
    Thanks

    Why don't you join in with our Malta solo campaign Nicolas.
    You can always tailor the scenarios later for your own use with friends, if you want to play more than solo games.

    British/French planes? Hurricanes,Spitfires, Martlets, ME109's, CR42's, Gladiators, JU87's, Heinkel III's, Reggiane, Dew 520 any of these will do. You fly with what you have.

    If you fancy it drop me a PM with what you have and we can talk over squadrons etc and where to fit them in. (The Axis boys could do with a helping hand).

    Nicolas,
    with few planes I shall think of a simple random scenario generator, allowing a certain number of planes every time you launch it. I have designed such thing for WWI, but that would be easily adapted to WWII. It is a 1-2 sheet set of steps using dice.
    Please note the more planes you use the greater headache with maneuver planning and executing you get.

    Why don't you try paper models while you don't have more planes?
    You can go full 3d, or you can print and glue 2.5D planes.
    There are a lot in the internet that you can do.
    If you need help, just say so.

    I tried Joaquim but im too bad... Anyway i was using the wrong materials. Also most of the fonts arent 1/200 which make things difficult. 2.5D seems good but i dont like it too much.... I found this IL-2 papermodel.. Too difficult for my hands but:

    Nick, don't despair.
    It's easier than you suspect.
    Try one Fiddler's Green model.
    If you need help with scale, just drop me a line.
