I do not understand what is needed in either mission to complete it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I may not be the best player, but I have beaten everything else in the game except simulator; I have only completed battle of britain on this setting. My main problem is I do not understand the goals of these two missions; is it how many planes shot down, how long the defended last or exactly what and how do I achieve it? Thanks for any help.

Hi guys I'm hoping you might be able to assist with this mission. I tried multiple times but I just can't seem to keep the ground forces alive. Do you just focus on the bombers all air craft?

If I am not mistaken on the "Air Defense" mission you should concentrate on the He-111's and forget the fighter escort. There are several waves and you'll lose allies, but if you angle yourself right you can take out several bombers per run.

Armored defense:
Head out to intercept the bombers early, assign attack command to sqd.
LEAVE them asap they have performed their attack. Head out to meet the second wave of attackers, and make the sqd form up to attack them.....

Escorting Sturmoviks:
Same. meet the 109s early and intercept, and command sqd to attack.
Regroup and set of to second wave of attackers.

THanks for the tips guys I'll give this a try. I'm playing on sim so maybe I drop it back a notch that may help also?
