Hi friends,
Happy New Year!
Over the past few months I've built my version of the 1982 Falklands war.
With the publication of 'San Carlos'; a scen where YOU can play and oppose the actual landings the battleset is complete. It consists of:
Vulcan 607: The bombing of the runway at Port Stanley by a Vulcan bomber with all the refuel missions needed (modeled to the excellent book by Rowland White)
Belgrano - Everyone knows this event; the moment at which the awsome power of nuclear subs became reality
May Day: The moment when Argentine and UK forces started fighting in earnest
San Carlos: the landings and the suicidal bravery of the Argentine Air Force.
All have been tested for ANW (3.8.0) and MayDay and San Carlos should be exciting for Multiplay as well.
Thanks to Herman who as always provided me with the necessary platforms and endless testing - and thanks to all players!
Oh, of course this is not the first Fallands battleset; there are at least two other versions out there for several DBs. I researched the OOB and the actual missions in depth and while I have played the existing Falklands scens, any similarity is due to all designers trying to model the existing events as well as they can!
