On Dec 14th 6 pilots of my Flight (including myself) and 2 green members gathered in our village social club to play a late war scenario.
Must admit I had been inspired by this postcard...
...and by Steve AKA Guntruck's scenery he arranged at Doncaster 2019 for his epic battle over the Alps ("Last Hurrah of the Golden Pheasants") - and Steve's maneouver cards designed exclusively for Schwalbes.
Here is one of the many photos taken during the 2 hours' battle over the clouds where only several mountain peaks served as rough obstacles.
Due to slow uploading procedures thru Drome's app, below you may click the link below to acces my cloud with all other pics of the fight above the clouds between Schwalbes and P-47s:

All in all there were 4 Me 262 and 4 P-47 planes.
No altitude, respawning available for all after 1 full turn.
The final score: 9 kills for the German flight (Sławek scored 5, me 2), 8 for the USAAF. Tactical German win.
Thunderbolts appeared to be demanding and dangerous opponents for the jets.
