***Campaign update TEST 2:*** AXIS forces have suffered once more heavy casualties, but they have achieve a significant Victory too. 18th Allied Heavy armored division was overrun and 17th have also suffered loses. So the over all Allied loss was over 250 vehicles (Shermans and Churchills). The Doetinchem access bridge was captured also, so now the remaining 17th Allied Division will have to pull additional 7 km back, freeing some room from AXIS divisions to advance. Tactically the battle was AXIS victory, but on the losses front, it can be argued who won. The Allies have generally much more equipment to waste where the germans need to be careful with the special equipment. The way to the enemy capital is long. Only time will tell in the live version of the campaign. Same goes for the air forces on both sides. The equipment there is more balanced, but still in low numbers.
**What is next: ** Each side have now about a week left to finish preparations and send me their divisions placements if they have not already. After that I will send them back the intel reports for the enemy divisions and they will have one more week to readjust their tactics if needed. But in that once week, they no longer have the right to change positions of their divisions  on the map. Tentative start for the campaign is 22nd this month. The strategic map will go live on 22nd, meaning that all movement will begin then. After that, we are waiting for attack orders on either side, which will trigger a PVP events.

That is definitely a unique perspective. I never even thought to look in the mirror. Even when watching the video I was looking straight ahead and judging my altitude.
 
I am not sure why Oscar popped in and out so quickly unless he left to join our normal group Session?
I am still not certain how the discussions are going to be conducted although I am fairly certain it will be discussed via TeamSpeak or Discord.

Downloaded the rule book and passed it along with the rest of the information to the group earlier tonight. I am interested but I will have to wait for the rest of their thoughts on the idea of joining.

Hello @wheelsup_cavu
I am here on behalf of SCG. I am the organizer of the upper mentioned event and would like to extend and invite to your squadron to participate as Allied force to SCG. SCG will be participating as Allies and could use numbers, since their equipment will be mostly inferior to the AXIS ground forces. In the air, things will be much more equal, but once again it seems that our north American air wing may not be able to provide enough support, dur to the fact that they are more used with AXIS planes than Allied. So any support that you may offer will be of great help to SCG I am sure and will provide more competitive campaign so people will actually experience more challenging scenarios.
 
I am not sure how much have you been told, but this will be real time strategic campaign. It is a bit complicated to put it into a few words here, so if you wish to know more, I will need some sort of Discord channel or Team speak, where I can come and explain it into detail. There is also a rule book that I have uploaded to this message that will give you more or less an idea of the scope of the event.

Did something a little different with my most recent video. I did not live stream it, not quite that handy yet, but I did record one of our 352nd VFG group sessions and I uploaded that recording later that night. Took just shy of 1 hour and 49 minutes to record the flight and then just a paltry 10 hours to upload it to YouTube...
The video includes our TeamSpeak chatter.
