Mega Mission Rules and Requirements

- Please take your time to read them.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -


Mission will be run on Saturay at 20:00h UK (GMT 0). Final date has not been selected yet. We're considering April 4th as the most probable date.

Roster will be avaliable two weeks prior to the Event, once the date has been confirmed.

Until then we would like that all interested pilots head over to the Fallen Angels forums and PRE-REGISTER for the Mega Mission.

PRE-REGISTRATION thread

The majority of the bomber pilots will be from DBS. Hovewer DBS alone can't fill all 18 slots so we are searching for more interested bomber pilots.

All interested bomber pilots are required to attend a series of practice sessions. You can find out more about it on the Fallen Angels forums, in the pre-registration thread.

I got a question about the B-17s are the gunners controlled by the AI or can the player use them?
