Post subject:  S3 #135 PTO2 Frame 2 Results

A late post. I've been tied up with an ongoing garage reno.

Due to some late log ins, Allied bomber number were less than optimum. Four bombers initially escorted by two then later three fighters.
Bombers headed south from the UK and initially made a feint at heading towards southern targets before altering to the east to hit the western most Rail Yard at Amiens (F118). LW fighters scored successes against AI wingmen, but were once again badly mauled by the defensive fire of the bomber formation.
Bombing was accurate, but the targets were well dispersed. A second pass was required, but this still left three large warehouses intact and the rail yard remained open.
The bombers egressed to the west and then north, hounded by LW fighters. 8th AF HQ elected to scrub a second mission for the day as the bomber crews would be unable to get home before nightfall.

Team Gold (Allied)
7 pilots: WLDBIL, bombr-, jedijc, muzz--, -deak-, -splt-, grmpy-
B-24J, 4 sorties (16 aircraft): 11 grnd objects destroyed at F118; 2 Bf 109G-6, 2 Bf 109G6/RVI shot down; 6 AI wingmen lost.
P-47D-25, 4 sorties, shot down 1 BF 109G6/RVI, 2 Fw 190A-8; 3 aircraft lost

Team Green (Axis)
6 pilots: juice=, =wilz=, -guns-, redsgt, vokker, okdoc-
Bf 109G-6, 4 sorties: shot down 1 P47D, 2 B-24J AI; 2 aircraft lost.
Bf 109G-6/RVI, 8 sorties: shot down 1 P47D, and 1 AI; 3 aircraft lost
Fw 190A-8, 8 sorties: shot down 2 B-24J AI; 2 aircraft lost.

Scoring
Team Green scores 3 VPs for lost Allied fighters and 30 VPs for six B-24Js lost, for a total of 33 VPs.
Team Gold scores 7 VPs for Axis fighter losses.

After two frames:
Team Green: 60 VPs
Team Gold: 45 VPs

Arena is once again open for practice with the Channel 1944 terrain.
TBD if PTO2 will continue to a frame 3 or if we will jump horses to a 2-frame D-Day scenario in the Europe 256 terrain.
Regardless, next frame will fly at 2030hrs, Sunday 21 May 2023. Log in early.
Cheers.
