Hi, just a very tiny detail I've noticed.
If Schnack senior is a Brigadefuhrer in 1940, he should have two oak leaves and a pip on his patch. (This changed in 1942 to three leaves).
Oberfuhrer had two leves.
One oak leave is Standartenfuhrer (colonel).

Not trying to nitpick - maybe you'll want to fix it in some time in the future. Overall very good stuff !

Just wanted to say that this series is great. First class work. Still playing in Spain but it's wonderful stuff, I am truly digging the story thus far. I have made a few scenarios for the Battlefront Combat mission series, and I have to say I can't wait if this series takes us into the Eastern Front. I like the new hero's to the Campaign, I think they can be immersive etc. What I would like to see from the mod community is some new Luftwaffe Special paint Schemes, like KG51 "Edelweiss", KG-54 Totenkoph", and other various JG (fighter) Stg squadrons-Sturzkampfgeschwader 1 for example. Nght figters etc. Not sure why but Slitherine, etc neglected the very main branch of the game. Anyways many thanks to all that have put this campaign together. Sehr gut gemacht, tolle Arbeit!

The aerial battles over England are very demanding. While the use of auxiliary fuel tanks allows for effective planning, the flight distances are quite long. You’ll need to be careful!

Do you already have an idea or a roadmap for what comes next?

Hi,

I believe that at the start of "Wings over Britain," you can purchase 2-star (experienced) fighters.
1. I bought 8–10 of these and use them as bait to lure out British fighters.
2. Purchase or convert enough Bf 109 F fighters to match the number of good pilots (heroes) you have. They have an Initiative of 7, and you can equip them with "Drop Packs."
3. I also have a squadron of Fw 190s, which I received as a reward at one point.
I use these fighters to gradually take down the enemy.
4. To protect mine-laying aircraft or other units, I advance slowly, waiting until there are very few enemy fighters left.
5. I position one of my own fighters—ideally one with abilities like "repeated supporting fire" or similar—in the center, surrounded by as many tactical bombers, long-range level bombers, and reconnaissance aircraft as possible. This makes it difficult, if not impossible, for the enemy to attack that fighter.
6. You can also lure the enemy by, for example, moving a unit (such as a 2-star tactical bomber) toward them, with one of your own fighters—equipped with camouflage—positioned right behind it.
7. For your own fighters, traits like "Double Move," "Phased Movement," and "Readiness" are also very useful.
This tactic should help you get through the upcoming air battles.
I am currently at the "Adlertag: Thames" stage.
Greetings
