LUSTY LASSIE'S LOG MISSIONS 1-10

This A/C and crew seem charmed. Only 2 KIA and 1 INVALIDED HOME so far. Quite a lot of bombs on target and a lot of kills 'claimed' though I am going with the exaggerated claims made by the crews during this time period.

Bremen comes up like a bad penny and is a tough target to reach.

The date is now 19th June 1943.

I have made a Ju 88 nightfighter/bomber destroyer and also added aerial rockets - though their use was limited and ineffective at this time. I may want to factor them in come the Summer proper along with up-armed ME109G6/R3. The up-armed FW190A6/R6 seems to have come into use in November 1943.

All these beasties don't seem to be effective if there are any ESCORTS around. There would need to be close cooperation between the Sturmbocke units and regular fighters to keep the ESCORTS off - not yet sure how to portray that.

Rules for the Rockets are also still not settled - but I have workable pieces for them which is necessary for testing.

I'm finding this era more interesting than the 1942 B-17 QOTS campaign. There is more variety and more danger/challenge.
