    Are the bomber minis necessary, Herr Oberst?
    Or we can make a project and an AAR with cards from FOG box?

    The minis are not necessary. Using the cards are fine for making this mission.

    Default

    One month for planing a bombing misson.

    I've got to indentify a good target first!

    I'am in, Herr Oberst.






    Just a little question before sending out my Aufklärungsbattalion. Will there be medals for the places 1 - 3, too?

    The mission vs the Schloss Falkenberg at Cancon would work. Suitable for a Ca.3, a Fried. G.IIIa, an AEG G.IVk, or an Ilya at the least. You could substitute a pair of Voisins or Fe2bs for a bomber too.

    I better write it up.
