UPDATE 8th SEPTEMBER New version uploaded Syria Campaign M1-v1 A2G F14's added to carrier Carrier now has destroyer escort Air Boss and LO positions added (I may have already reported this but I think I lost them again) Enemy AI now triggered by entering flight zones rather than at spawn-in, giving reduced flight/engagement times. Extra defenses added to Harim and surrounding area. Airfield capture for Aleppo, Taftanaz and Abu Al Duhur now enables blue flyable units making them live RRR / spawn locations. The enemy may be miffed about this and try and get them back. Airborne troops are now split into two tasks. The 82nd and 101st will be available in all places troops can be picked up. This will be Hatay, Alpha FOB and Taftanaz (when airfield (when in blue ownership). 82nd Sections and Platoons must be used for attacking towns when it is not safe to drop troops inside the capture zone. When deployed they will travel across country towards the nearest zone that they need to capture. Range is not an issue for these units. Once they have taken control they will stand guard. The 101st Sections and Platoons must be used for capturing airfields and towns where you feel it is safe to deploy them on site. These troops will only travel towards enemy (if present) within a 300m radius. If no enemy present they will enable the capture of the airfield/town and stand guard in a circle where you deploy them. Both the 101st and 82nd can be picked up again and re used. Scoring Added (see below) Player Scores The mission will now award scores for enemy air kills, ground units and safe landings. Any points gained on a flight must be "claimed" by making a safe landing at any of the blue owned airfields or FOB's. You must remain in the safe zone (runway for aircraft or take-off areas for helicopters) for at least 10 seconds (so crashing into the ground in a ball of flames does not count as a "landing" ). The carrier is also marked as a safe place. Friendly unit kills will earn a deduction. I am looking into setting buildings have a score as well so the TV and Radio stations may have a bonus value to make them an inviting target but the orphanage may be a big punishment ... DONE SEE BELOW Player scores can be viewed through the Comms F10 "Other" menu. You can can view your own and the tally for the other players as well. My hope is that these scores will be part of the on-going campaign and be carried over from one mission to the next, but one-step-at-a-time. So you now have an incentive to look after your air frame and get it home. If you die or crash without saving the points they will be lost to you. cfrag is working on a Bank option so my long term goal with the points is that they will be able to be traded for upgrades to the airfields etc. But this is very early days for this function at the moment. Enjoy and thank you for your support and patience as I develop this campaign.

As a veteran of Discord I can wholeheartedly endorse its adoption; it also comes with some pretty cool functionality that IMHO rather makes TS seem limited and somewhat antiquated. For example, the inherent ability to stream your screen or app so that others can see what you’re doing on your computer is a massive advantage for briefing/debriefing or instructing others or even just allowing someone who’s not flying - maybe due to illness, tech issues or just not feeling it - to join in the social side of the dogs and still have visibility and therefore some understanding of what’s occurring.

Forgot to include Alpha FOB moved nearer to large clearing to make landing a bit easier. The building is marked by a white container next to it. If you own Combined Arms you can now transport troops in the new MaaxPro APC. So why not load up an 82nd section, drive them into the combat area, deploy them and then escort them in manning the 50cal.

Chaps We are tasked with defending Cairo ( Stalingrad on map) Take off and intercept italian bombers. There will be an escort. There will be further waves over basergino airfield. Due to game mechanics do not patrol west of Basergino airfiels 1123 on map Do not use airstart in 1123 , it was only to test game. Usual time tomorrow evening regards delta
