I am an idiot I am still trying to get the damage points over 5000 but I was forgetting that Cherbourg just fell and that is now added to ground captured not damage points

Going very short today and hitting a few PRI AF

First attack from forward base in normandy take off to target 6 minutes, unless he puts a patrol right over the front lines these guys will be able to fly with no escorts.

Day bombers are attacking PRI AF up in Belgium and the heavy's are going after the two troop units up on the Belgium coast.

BC: is sending all its strenght against Rouen, I totally want to knock out this rail as most of his units in Normandy are tracing their supply through here. Also every night fighter I have is in the air tonight hope he comes after me in force.

What a day out of ten FS nine got kills the best raid 13 got 28 kills for 1 loss.

Bad news for the day all my heavy's only caused 36% damage accross 4 target with no "bombing through cloud" to throw off their aim. Looks like I may have to have a down day to build up some morale.

Still have no Double Ace's, one 9 an 8 and 7 lots of 4's now. All american and from abot 3 sqaudrons

Bf 109G-6/R6 and Me 410A-1/U2 took the brunt of the losses. 109's ran into a FS as they flew back to base after their attacks. While the Me 410's set up a patrol right where a FS was set to patrol and then could not get seperation fast enough.

I noticed on your 6/13/44 Campaign Summary that you put another 100+ Axis pilots out of action. You are eating him up with attrition. Keep your foot on his neck and don't let him up.

Status: offline 		Cripes,
I think I have him on the ropes in the air. I had the advantage over him from the start, better planes, good skilled pilots with high morale. So far he has lost 1325 pilot's half to WIA, seeing that we start just before Overlord, I think he is going to have a deeper pool of pilots than I expect. He also does not fly major defence attacks every day, if I average out for 5 days he is lossing (15) KIA pilots and (25) WIA + MIA a day.

The German advantage is that he knows that my attacks must be Overlord targets so he can strip HAA from any non Overlord target if he want's. He also does not need to keep his fighters where they start the game and move them as far forward as his bases allow. Troop's can be loaded up with HAA and LAA to make flak traps.

My biggest problem is trying to cause troop damage every turn. While still hitting Rail, PRI AF and Radar. When I hit his troop their disruption jumps for a turn, but drops very fast even with all rail yards leading to the troops at major damage.

After writing this I think I need to hit the rail yards harder and get them up to 100% and see if that make a diffrence.

I am averaging a 116 - 127 point gain each day at this rate I am going to lose big time as 119 x 77 days = only 8932 point verses his 29508.
