Hanover Raid Intercepted by Mass Attack Before the Luftwaffe found itself with dwindling numbers, American bombers were faced with large scale mass attacks by enemy fighters. These attacks usually started from head-on where the German pilots would normally face less fire power and could hit more critical areas on the B17, such as the cockpit and engines. More than once it happened that an entire element a B-17 formation would be shot down in one attack. This mission simulates a bombing mission to the Hanover railroad yards. As the mission starts you will already see the enemy fighters approaching you in a line abreast formation ready for their first attack. You better hurry and get your guns manned and ready because they will be on you in a short while. Since the scale of the mission builder doesn't allow for 100 plane scenarios, some adjustments were made to the German fighter pilot skill levels. You will find some a simple threat, others a bit more dangerous, and a few downright deadly. Fight your way through the waves of enemy fighters and bomb the railyard at Hanover and make it back home again alive! This one isn't going to be easy and you may have to jettison your load and run for home before you become a sitting duck! ---------------------------------------- Massattk.Mis/Txt created by K.
