SoWC:BoB Multisquad Campaign Starting

Sorry I couldn't make the last two, but thanks to Farber and team.

One of the most interesting things I think was that on the Red side throughout the campaign we suffered from lacking an overall mission commander who could decide when to finally commit our forces.

When left to COs, including me (I tend to be a bit cautious), no one person had the overall picture or the authority to act in a strategic way.

Educational for me at least.

I think the lack of Radar made it impossible to make fluid decisions whether by AOC or by CO discussion.

I would be interested to hear from the Blues how they organised themselves and made their tactical decisions.

Basically I put up the brief, a map of where the bombers where going and the target and a blank map. If no one put up any plans I put up the historical plan - which was generally a Frei-jagd fighter sweep slightly ahead of the bombers.

Had fun on most missions. All I can say is...when is the next campaign?
