Desperate Days - Polish Campaign 1939
« on: July 20, 2011, 11:47:33 PM »

As we now, thanks to Uzin, have a map over parts of Poland I have built a campaign for it. It is called "Desperate Days":



This is a 10-mission static campaign that portrays the aerial fighting in the so called “Polish Corridor” during the intial phase of the German Invasion in September 1939. You are Polish fighter pilot, flying the PZL P.11c (although two missions will be flown in the Lublin R-XIII recce biplane).

You can download it here: http://www.mission4today.com/index.php?name=Downloads3&file=details&id=907



The “Polish Corridor” was among the first the fall before the massive German onslaught, being overtaken around the 5th of September – save some small enclaves. This means that the fighting is quite hectic, with you often flying several missions each day. Even though the odds are not impossible, they ARE against you, as it was in real life for the Polish pilots. This is not a campaign for the faint-hearted. You can really understand what the Poles were up against.



Requirements: If you use DBW (Dark Blue World) you have all that you need to play this game.

Interesting, but what aircraft are those in the 5th and 8th/9th pictures?
I've never seen them before.

Ah, they are the PZL.23 "Karas" and the Lublin D-XIII! You will only fly the last one, but you will also see the PZL.37 "Los" in action!

Many thanks, Poltava! D/loading now,saving it to enjoy when I return from holidays. If it's as exciting as your Bodenplatte, then you've set new high standards!  8)

Well it's not PZL 23 but PZL 42.
This one was only a prototype of small diving bomber, but was far from perfection. Only one such plane existed, and hardly ever flied as it was used as scientific exhibit in Aviation School in Deblin

Anyway, all the rest looks fine  :)

Remember, that it takes considerably longer to create a mod than a pretty screen shot

Even though you won't fly it, but only see it in action, I'm sorry about the silly mistake regarding the "Karas" version. I will of course correct it.

Thanks for pointing this out!

Thanks. I will be trying this out on HSFX5, if I have all the required things to load it.

First problem -- Is the map available as a separate download?

Thanks Uzin. I also have the PZL 37 PZL 42 and Lublin R-13 so I will see if I can get it working.
Thanks again, and thanks to Poltava.

It appears that with HSFX5 the only things you need to add are:

Uzins East Baltic Map      https://www.mediafire.com/file/vpoupc1fc7hs3yn/uzav_EastBalt%20Beta.7z
Lublin R-XIII     https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,16938.0.html

The other aircraft are included in HSFX and I think all the necessary objects are also included
--- but I've not completed checking it yet.

I've only added the map and _Tex files from Uzins pack. I hope all the rest is already in HSFX?
