- Notes:
-
Bomber Command crews were not experienced in formation flying, and the pace of the offensive
wasn't about to be slowed for training. If you wish to reflect this, you may apply Random Event
4, Loose Formation, to the mission until Random Event 6 or 8, Tight Formation, cancels it. (This
is just a suggestion, not a requirement, or even a recommendation.)
-
If you are interested, a modifier of +3 was made to the rolls for Fighter Coverage on Table G-5.
Bomber Command would not be flying daylight missions if there was any possibility of Poor Fighter
Coverage.
