Misson, I have a question for you...
Mario,
He terminado de otra misión de la campaña Mezzagosto, pero no soy lo suficientemente seguras como para firmar en él, porque creo que la misión es demasiado peligrosa para completar con éxito. Después de haber volado dos veces, la perspectiva de tratar de buceo-bomba contra una flota enemiga con el Cr-42 Falco es muy arriesgado. Además, las bombas son muy pequeñas, e incluso si tienen éxito, es prácticamente imposible de hundir un comerciante o un portaaviones con dos bombas de sesenta kilos, incluso si usted hace ametrallando ataques.
Veo dos maneras de lidiar con esto ...
1) Dejar la misión "tal cual" y decir "buena suerte", como me río con un aullido mal, sabiendo lo que se encuentra en más de la flota. Después de todo, esta misión es históricamente exacta, la Cr-42 se ha ejecutado el ataque.
2) Modificar la misión de la siguiente manera: La escolta para esta misión son Reggiane Re-2.001 combatientes Falco II. Podría cambiar la misión de modo que la Cr-42 va a escoltar a los bombarderos Re-2001, equipados con bombas anti-navales. Ellos tendrían una mejor oportunidad de hacer daño a la flota. El problema es, que la escolta, que ahora se quedaban atascados en un mano a mano contra el Grumman F4F "Martlets."
Mi opinión personal era que la campaña "dinámica" y tienen la misión configurado como un escenario de "A" o "B", lo que significa que tendría una oportunidad aún durante la campaña de volar una misión u otra.
Cualquier comentario que pueda proporcionar sería agradecida!
Con agradecimiento,
Mario,
I have finished another mission for the Mezzagosto campaign, but I'm not confident enough to sign off in it, because I think the mission is far too dangerous to complete successfully. Having flown it twice, the prospect of trying to dive-bomb on an enemy fleet with the Cr-42 Falco is very risky. In addition, the bombs are very small, and even if you are successful, it is virtually impossible to sink a merchant or an aircraft carrier with two sixty kilogram bombs, even if you make strafing attacks.
I can see two ways to deal with this...
1) Leave the mission "as is," and just say "good luck" as I laugh with an evil howl, knowing what you are in for over the fleet. After all, this mission is historically accurate; the Cr-42s did execute the attack.
2) Modify the mission in the following way: The escort for this mission are Reggiane Re-2001 Falco II fighters. I could switch the mission around so that the Cr-42s will escort the Re-2001 fighter-bombers, which are equipped with anti-naval bombs. They would have a better chance of doing damage to the fleet. The catch is, as the escort, you would now be stuck in a dogfight against Grumman F4F "Martlets."
My personal thought was to make the campaign "dynamic" and have this mission set up as an "A" or "B" scenario, meaning you would have an even chance during the campaign of flying one mission or the other.
Any feedback you can provide would be appreciated!
With thanks,

"summary_string"=Attenzione, i piloti! Several attacks from Sardinia have had little effect on the Pedestal convoy, with only a single merchant vessel sunk and a few other near misses to show for it. Before the convoy slips beyond our grasp, we are sending our your Cr-42 Falcos to attack the convoy, while escort fighters keep the enemy at bay. Make sure to score hits on the fleet, this convoy creeps ever closer to Malta!
"objective_string"=In the late afternoon, the Italians mounted a final attempt from Sardinia to raid the Pedestal convoy, deploying eight Cr-42 Falcos as dive-bombers with an escort of nine Re-2001 fighters. No hits on the convoy were scored during this raid...however the convoy would come under an intense raid less than three hours later.
"intelligence_string"=Despite the large-scale assaults today, the overall cost to the convoy itself has been largely minimal, with only the loss of MV Deucalion; this vessel had to leave the convoy together with HMS Bramham to protect her. Your Cr-42s must add to those losses, because once the enemy convoy slips further past Sardinia, Pantelleria and Sicily represent the last line of defense. Focus on the merchants, a massive raid is gathering for an all-out assault before the torpedo boats go to work tonight. Don't come back empty-handed!
