2 and 4 from the list of changes seem to still be missing from
the 1.2 version in the 8 nov scenario book. I will play with
them included.

Item 4 was included (the draw window is +9 to +11 instead of
+12, but SSR 2 was forgotten. Fixed now.

v1.2
Player: Elias Nordling (solo)
The Germans had even more trouble getting through to the bombers
now, and by trying they also give the fighter advantage to the
british. Only 2 combats against the bombers were pulled off, one
on the -1 column and the other at -2. A high combat roll scored
a bomber kill, but no cohesion hits.
Again, the British had more fighters left than the Germans and
ganged up three units on the last remaining german flight in a
dogfight. Surprisingly, the German flight sent off all the
British fighters without loss. The Germans then got a third
attack on the bombers, but it was after bombing, and it caused
only a straggler.
Final score:
UK:
Bombing 12, 10 ftrs: 22
Luftwaffe: 1 bomber, 8 ftrs: 10
TOTAL: 12, British narrow win. Felt like one
Comment: The Germans have a choice between trying to gang up on
the sweeps and get a positive fighter kill ratio, or trying to
reach the bombers to disrupt one. Neither will be easy, and
further testing will tell if it is too difficult for the Germans
or just fine. I think we need a narrow draw window on this one,
or most results will end up draws. With that, I think this one
is ready for the next stage of testing.

Cool. I'll punt it out to people in the next release, with the
Veterans fix in.

I suggest narrowing the draw window to 10-11 too, I wasn't
entirely clear with this.

I don't think the Germans have much of a chance to get more than
a +3 kill ratio, and it would be nice if disrupting a bomber
wasn't their ONLY possible path to victory. Thus the narrow draw
window.

Okay, I'm making the draw window change. Can you please take a
quick look at S29 Kursk Counterattack?

Scenario: S18 Ramrod 5-31.
Version: v1.4.
Playtester: Scott Spencer(solo).
Report: Spread the vets and experten among the 190s. Did the
same with the British. One height error for the Germans with
the top 109 squadron. Due to poor spotting by the British the
Germans were able to get close but were stymied by the escorts
and only one Fw-190 flight got a clean shot at the bombers.
Germans downed ten Spitfires and two B-26s. British downed two
109s and ten Fw-190s and scored six bomb hits.
Victory: British twelve fighter kills plus twelve VP for bombing
= 24VP. German ten VP for Spits and four VP for B-26s = 14VP.
24VP - 14VP = 10VP. Draw. Felt Like Minor British victory.
Recommendations: None. The B-26s are a tough nut to crack but I
think the VP spread is solid.
