    The North Sea Campaign
    Mission 4 Covering the Birds or Fish


    The North Sea is still a very dangerous place!!

    For the Entente they were able get two Bombers over Zeebrugge and hit the German
    Aerodrome. By Bombing the Aerodrome they were able to interrupt the German Bomber
    Launch. After dropping their bombs they were able to fly of the South end of the map
    and return to a waiting Refuel tanker to get resupplied for the return journey home.
    For the Germans they were able to Launch 4 Gothas and a Zeppelin-Staaken before
    the Bombing ended the launches.
    For this week's game, we are going to continue with this same mission. We have
    German Bombers heading across the sea toward England, and we have a group of aircraft
    refueling at sea. The Germans know they that there are some wounded planes vulnerable
    while they are refueling and they also have to protect the slow bombers as they cross over
    to England. The Entente have problems of their own. The Merchant Tanker needs to have
    air cover, they know a squadron of bombers are heading toward England and there are plenty
    of Aircraft flying patrols looking for them. The Tanker is going to need time to alert the
    Mainland so the Home Defense Force can launch more air cover.

    Tune in and Find out what each team decides to target in Mission 4 Covering the Birds of Fish!!

    The North Sea is an extremely dangerous place!!

    For the Entente they were able to refuel their bombers so they can make it back to their home
    port. The Tanker was also able to get a signal off to the Home Defense Force about the German
    Bomber Launch. Now mainland England will launch its own scouts to help protect against an
    upcoming German raid.

    For the Germans they were able to litter the sea with Aircraft parts while delaying the Entente
    from doing much damage to the bombers.

    For this week's game, we are going to continue with this same mission. German Bombers
    have crossed the sea and are approaching England. With no escort the bombers are making
    their approach toward Harwich and the Felixstowe Flying Boat Base.
    The Entente has the Home Defense Force launched for air cover and the arduous task of
    protecting the coast.

    Legends: Udet
    Mission 1
    15th Aug 1917 8th victory


    Ernst Udet was the leading German surviving pilot in WWI with 62 victories. Our next WWI campaign will be highlighting the
    WWI career of this elite pilot. We will play a series of missions so that each of us in the Thursday night group will have the
    chance to fly as Udet once. This should be a lot of fun for the Udet player and a monumental challenge for those opposing him.

    Albatros DVa vs Sopwith Strutters
    15 Aug 1917
    Pont-a-Vendin
    A British bomber flew low towards Udet’s aerodrome. Udet hopped into his Albatros DVa with only his goggles to gave chase as
    soon as he got off the ground. When turning after the Strutter he noticed more staffel members lifting off behind him. The chase
    was at tree top level until Udet prevailed.
    Good Morning pilots
    Today’s mission:
    Team England
    The British Sopwith Strutters will start from the North near the western edge at Altitude 2 heading East. The Strutters will need to fly
    to the to within a half a rule of the German Aerodrome at an altitude no higher than 2, then make an exit off the Western edge.
    Team Udet
    Udet and his Staffel members will start at the Southern edge heading West or Northwest at a random Altitude 1 or 2. The German
    Pilots are to shootdown the British planes as they try to survive and return home.

    17 Sept 1917

    Izel

    Udet’s victory is recorded at 7:30 am. A note here stated Udet was feeling under the weather as he had been out partying the
    previous evening. He took off before breakfast hoping to recover his composure. Noticing some German flak bursts above him
    he spotted three British planes and went after them. When he got closer he thought they were flying upside down as he was
    not familiar with the reverse staggered wings of the DH5.

    While in command of Jasta 37, Udet's command happened across a flight of French Nieuport 27's. While using a favored
    tactic of surprise, his Flight tried to jump the Nieuports and a great "furball" ensued. Every pilot from both sides made claims that
    could not be confirmed and Udet was no different. This day had a tentatively confirmed victory for Udet.

    wingman, shot up the airfield of Fliegerabteilung, setting fire to one hangerand damaging four German aircraft before dropping a placard wishing their opponents a
    "Happy Christmas". Annoyed at this violation of the informal, traditional Christmas truce, the Austrians retaliated the next day. Here on New Years Day Barker
    with 4 other Camels escort Re8s from No. 42 Squadron on a bombing mission to the Austrian Army headquarters at Vittorio.

    The Albatros began the attack on the bomber formation. Barker dove on the lead attacking Albatros and shot it down. An Additional Albatros was shot down
    without any losses to the British. The Re 8s made a successful bombing attack. The return leg was without further incident.

    Mission 9
    Fokker D.VII vs Breguet 14s


    29 June 1918

    Cutry, France

    Udet had a harrowing experience this day. Attacking a Breguet that was directing artillery, he was hit
    in the machine gun and fuel tank. That was not all, his elevator and aileron cables were severed sending
    his DVII plummeting. As he exited his plane his parachute got caught up on the rudder. Luckily, he freed
    himself and his chute opened 8o meters above the ground. His ordeal was not yet over. He landed in a
    barrage while being shot at by machine guns before and after he landed. In his 3 kilometer run to safety
    he was pelted with stones and earth clods thrown up by the barrage. The next day he scored his 36th victory.

    Udet had been hoodwinked by the French observer. After Udet’s first burst the observer disappeared down
    into his cockpit. Udet cautiously approached the Breguet thinking the observer had been killed. When he was
    convinced of this he closed in and that’s when the observer reappeared and riddled his DVII, downing him into
    his ordeal.

    Made a mistake in allowing the engine damage instead of using the Lucky Pilot to discard. Ah, well, it was early in the game, and I didn't know it was the only damage I was going to take the entire game. Had I used it, I probably could have overwhelmed the last Breguet with Ace skills. Hindsight really is 20/20.

    I saw 3 Goerings and 2 Udets!

    You needed Stark, Sachsenberg, and Schäfer!

    If two of the pursuing Fokker D.VII did not have engine damage, I would not have survived to get the victory. Good game! A nail biter!

    Right. The two that they played are actually the only ones that I have!

    I do have the Stark, I did not use it because it broke up the symmetry of 3/2.

    Hahaha! I would have swapped an Udet for a Stark.

    Ugh, engine damage is brutal. On a D.VII, I'd rather have my pilot hit.

    Hello Everyone
    We are back for the 10 Mission in the Legends: Udet campaign. Each mission a different
    member of the group gets to fly as Udet with a ton of ace skills. After everyone gets a
    chance to fly we are going to compare and see who did the best.

    This week we are playing the 11th mission of our Udet campaign. With only a few missions
    left, it has been fun to how differently each player has used all of the skills as they complete
    their mission.

    Legends: Udet
    Mission 11
    Fokker DVIIs vs RAF Se5as


    8th Aug 1918
    Southeast of Barleux, France

    The last weeks of the War were already tragic for the German Air Force. The Entente's
    air superiority was overwhelming, and the number of German combat ready aircraft
    and crews were thinning considerably. The lack of gasoline and ammunition also contributed
    to the degrading readiness of the German Air Force. Niether the dedication of the German Air
    Crews or the small numbers of new excellent aircraft, like the Fokker D.VIII, Pfalz D.XII or
    Siemens-Schucket D.III and D.IVs, would be enough to change the course of the war.
    August 1918 was Udet's most successful month of the War, with a total of 20 enemy aircraft
    destroyed. That brought his total for the war to 60 victories.

    At 5:30 pm, on August 8th Udet scored the first of three victories that day.

    Fokker DVIIs vs Sopwith Camels


    8th Aug 1918

    Southeast of Foucaucourt-en-Santerre, France

    This was Udet’s 3rd victory on August 8th. A pair of Camels regularly flew over the aerodrome
    between 8 and 9pm dropping leaflets written by German deserters tempting others to join them.
    In a tight turning fight Udet could not out turn the tight flying Camel. The fight dipped down to
    below 300 feet and Udet felt a light bump to his machine. Looking down at the RAF pilot climbing
    out of his crashed Camel, Udet surmised he had collided with him, sending him down.

    8:30 pm, the Third of three victories for Udet on August 8th.
