This new scenario features a hypothetical successor to Black Buck using the historically cancelled Nimrod MRA4. Biggest issue is whether I've given the player enough tankers.

Update 1.1: Changed the return settings to "units leave group" as per ojms' suggestion and doubled the number of tankers for (extra) safety.

Hi,

You might want to change the option on refueling so that units leave a group rather than the whole group goes RTB.

Cheers

New version posted.

-Changed the (default) refueling settings as per ojms' suggestion.
-Added twice as many tankers on the British side (there's no such thing as too many tankers).

Spoiler alert...
I played the first version of the scenario. I create two refuel gates. First 900 miles from Ascension with 5 Grizzlies and second 1900 miles from Ascension with 3 Voyagers. For all aircraft (tankers and attackers) I set transit speed to loiter and max altitude.
Nimrods starts first due the smaller loiter speed and 30 minutes after started Grizzlies and after another 30 minutes Voyagers. On the first refuel gate Nimrods used only 3 tankers. All tankers were sent at Ascension and there all waiting for possible refueling of Nimrods on the return leg.
During second refueling Nimrods used all Voyages and headed on the target. To ensure the full Nimrods tanks I had to managed refueling manually due the tankers early RTB. Voyages were sent on Ascension and their task was fulfilled.
Nimrods fired Storm Shadows on their maximum range (all targets was destroyed) and flew at home.
During the return flight, two Nimrods had not enough fuel (approx. -200miles), so I created a new refuel gate 400 miles from Ascension for 3 Grizzlies. After refueling, all aircraft landed safely at Ascension. Last Nimrod flew 23 hours

.
I think that the initial number of tankers were sufficient. Only one thing you could change, set Wadewake airfield as a single unit.
Thanks for interesting scenario Coiler12!

Posted the final community pack/workshop version. Kept the extra tankers so that players have more margin of error-they're welcome to leave some parked if they want an extra challenge
