Ah, so you are discontent with the current administration of the Reich, Herr Hunter?

Don't take it to hard. I failed my first test too. Those bastards have to let a certain percentage fail no matter how good or bad you were.

BTW it's Schweinehund and you should take a 190 for an even more unpleasant flight.

Schweinhund is the alternative spelling of Schweinehund

The examinators (2 of them) where horrible....
they have walky talky to tell eachother as they are on both ends of the track when a student on a motorbike makes a error.

but after a error they go at eachother to discuss it???
its DELAYING the whole exam and what for? they can discuss it through the bloody walky talky no?...and the longer you wait...the nervous you get.
and the other examinator a women sometimes walked away from her position to have a quik word with a different colleague (who does the Trucker exam) delaying the exam even moooore....

so finaaaaaaaally its my turn, and the first thing was my most hated part of the whole track is zigzag between the poles on a terribly SLOW speed.
when I passed the first pole I already knew I entered a bit too far out so had to make really sharp short turns which led that I in my POV perhaps touched the line...but didnt cross it but that was enough for that women to lift her hands up to state that I made a error and could stop immediatly.

ah well fine....better luck next time I hope.

I might not be around tonight. I hope Hunter will be able to translate the briefings for you (though I highly doubt it).

Wenn Dowly verloren geht, ist es vollkommen egal, wenn Hunter mit untergeht.

Mission One:
The Lolwaffles scrambled in Bf109s and Fw-190s to replace a broken He-111 fleet (obviously High Command have now realised that bombers work better with bombs) and attack some ships, trains and ground convoys along the other side of a nearby lake. On the way back, Kratos was jumped by fighters and destroyed, Xabba took heavy damage and had to RTB. As the final run was made to the airbase, some AI snuck into the formation and caused havoc, Xabba put down on the main runway and Lolwaffled it, so the rest of the group came in on the taxi-way.


Oberon strafes some Russkie fuel tankers


Dowly checks Xabbas damage


Xabba and the wonder weapon

Mission Two:
SCRAMBLE!!
Trapped in a pocket created by advancing Soviet forces, the Lolwaffles had to scramble under duress as the traitorous Task Force lead a formation of Pe-8s on an attack on the airbase as the Lolwaffles took off.
Oberon attempted to take-off too fast, skidded off the runway and smashed himself up, the rest of the group managed to get into the air and Hunter took down the traitorous Task Force but at a cost, both of his engines took hits, as did his fuel tanks. His engines both gave way within sight of his destination airbase, however the airbase was on a hill and he glided into the side of it in a perfect Lolwaffle landing.
Star of the show was the AI 109 White 14, who singlehandedly destroyed the entire Soviet airforce.

I think Hunter needs to up date the scoreboard.

Nothing wrong wrong with it, but I still cant really figure why we dont stick with DCG campaigns. I mean, the only thing different in our custom campaigns have been custom briefing and of course, fewer planes. The missions are the same, bombing, CAP, escort with the exception of few fake bombing missions without bombs.

DCG does not guarantee to see action even with 100 planes per side, sometimes you miss the enemy by miles as they are either all TRANSFERING somewhere on the others side of the map or they have completly different flightpaths.
DCG does not give you any worthy targets to bomb with medium sized bombers, DCG pulls out a whole pack of bombers to destroy AAA around a Fricking Airbase.
DCG has the horrible tendency to do repeative missions, whats next? ow transfer...and next Transfer again...oops frontline changed so we transfer again. or..its the 3th time in a row I must intercept the Pe-2's attacking that town.
DCG does not always end or the end is not in sight which make it rather boring after a while.
also DCG missions dont follow up, the things you do do not have effect.
in the hand made campaigns, for example in the current one. we headed out with 109's to a different airbase, picked up HE111's and headed back and after that we did a bombing run with the HE111's.
