Sunderland at War, Part I: the Bay of Biscay

Truly amazing work Loic, well done! :applause::applause::applause:

I'm sorry I don't have the time to contribute anything at the moment. I don't know how your Gmax is but for the defences you could use the turrets from the German destroyer in the SDK
 
I don't know anything about Gmax or 3d modelling.

I may try it one day as rbp71854 explained that he is using this tool to place accurately facilities in his missions, this is how he did for Operation Dragoon for exemple.
 
Bravo Led,
I do look forward to your work..
Of all the folks here I understand the amount of work involved
Thanks Very much..

Squadron Leader J.A. Wilson, N°156 PFF squadron, raid on Royan, january 5th 1945.

Player is the Master Bomber and has to highlight several targets for two waves of bombers during the mission. In this mission, player will see fire on Royan getting bigger and bigger. A little bit of boring spawn setup but the result with ETO effects is really terrific, this mission is really immersive.

Those 3 screens shots are on chronological order:
1- arriving over Royan, 05:30 AM.
2- Royan after the 1st wave of Lancaster has bombed.
3- Royan after the second and final wave of Lancasters has bombed.

August 1944, the 3rd Army is rushing to the west in an attempt to capture a harbor in Brittany, allies desperately need a major logistic platform for future operations in Europe.

The battle to capture Saint-Malo is tough and the 3rd battalion of 8th infantry division have been surrounded following an assault against Dinard airfield. Take off with another L4 and drop blood plasma to the isolated battalion, this is all what can be done at the moment. Good luck, this is a very dangerous task as the area is infested by AA guns of 912nd light flak battalion that is affected to the airfield defense.

(full text is included in the briefing, this is a historical mission).

Eras 3 & 5 are finished.

I don't know, there is still a lot of work to do. I'm finishing era 4 at the moment but it is long.
I'm doing a lot of facilities for D Day beaches only for one mission, the attack of ZG 1 near Caen in the afternoon of 6th of june.

Then, I'll build a Jedburgh team drop in Brittany in august 1944 but it will take some time as I have several ideas for a new concept but it will require some boring spawn setup.

Once it is done, I have to do missions for eras 1 and 2.

If the He177 is released, I have informations for two missions.

So, I think, no release before august or september.
 
Quick overview of Era 4. This era mainly focus on operations against Brittany in August 1944 (US 3rd Army was rushing to the west in an attempt to capture a major harbor) and early operations against Atlantic Pockets.

- Coastal Command anti-sub patrol at night along French Atlantic coast in support of Normandy landings.

- Minelaying... sometimes, bombers involved in these missions had to face nasty situations.

- You will operate from an ALG in support of Patton's 3rd Army advance in Brittany.

- Beaufighter in coastal anti-ship patrol.

- A24 against Atlantic Wall fortification on the Isle of Groix.
