Quoted from narration:

"Axis.
Authorisation has been given to the immediate launch of Operation Herkules, the occupation of Malta. A scratch force is to be assembled for the assault. Bombing raids will continue whilst the assault force is mustered further north in Italy and Sicily. The minimum mandatory shipping, army and aerial resources are still some days away."

1. Leave air reinforcements as designed. I reckon we should continue as campaign plan & its up to Axis to work around its losses .See how things work out in next 24hrs.

2. Our ground unit reinforcements should all be arriving via Supply Routes Sicily 1,2 & 3 not Siracusa Cargo so they'll need adjusting.

3. Mission Planning Limits show Axis Sea as 0/0 flotillas. As some vessels have become available at Supply point this will need changing?

4. Agreed with Hawk_5 that 0500hr mission is the start of day missions.

Noticed the 12 x 6' Coastal Battery have transport wt that makes it impossible to transport via road/rail or shipping.
Believe 4Shades is looking at changing weights as per Wargs recommendations.

Coastal batteries will need moving back to a sea supply point for eventual shipping.

Thnx Pete, 4Shades has made a few changes & atm just need the flotilla plan limits adjusted & then should be good to continue planning.

Personally I'm not rushing into it, anyone else is welcome to plan away as sees fit. I just want to make sure I make your life a misery :wink:

45 x SM.75 Transports - 57 Gruppo
I can't find these in the DB at all. Are they in any Object_Specs DB as yet?

In the meantime I used the Ju52MG6E as a (dodgy) replacement but hope we can get this swapped out before they are used.

I had trouble with the Cant Z1007 but copied from reference DB ok and loadout table was already populated.


Other than that Allies have been done as well so that is all replacements in I think. Sorry for any errors that may be there.


Cheers,

The mission failed to load.
4Shades investigated and traced problem to game bug due to a missing texture for 815 sqn. This has been reported and addressed in next release of HSFX.

After removing that flight from mission file we decided to proceed with the mission.

There was a minor DCS notice during analyze but all went ok.
Stats are reported.

Hopefully we can get plans in quickly for a mission again Tuesday night as discussed.

Hi guys,

I have a work commitment until reasonably late this evening, so I will probably be unavailable tonight. :(

Cheers,
4Shades

Allied planning complete and I believe Ikey has Axis completed?
This being the case then we are hoping for a Malta mission Monday night (Tonight)

I'm sorry guys but looks like I stuffed that one up.
The "working" mission file we flew had no Chiefs in the file and reporting was a mess and would not proceed.
Found missing Chiefs and restored mission file to original (minus bad tiles)from backup but it appears there is still an issue as stats are stuffed up and things are missing.

Eventlog and mission file sent to 4Shades and maybe we fly this again?

I hope we don't need to and that Chiefs "arrive" at destinations anyway otherwise not move at all.
Not a big deal for Allies if there is no movement but may be a big impact on Axis if nothing moves?

My stuff up sorry all and I hope 4Shades can sort it out ok without too much hassle.
