Hello badaboom! I'll be back in the PTO in due course...... :wink:
In the meantime, I've also uploaded this to M4T:
It's a pretty quick campaign for the Hs-129. The campaign features both the long-schlong and needledick variants. There's also a Ju-87 variant for all the weirdos who like to fly Stukas.....

Nice Campaign! The Me-210 makes short work of the "flying tanks".

Phil mate, enjoying now your amazing Magyar campaign, mission 10 currently, really love your type of missions and will download the Ju87 campaign asap, but want to ask If you please can explain the way you work, for creating a campaign, for example If you create a template for general use, or one for each mission, how you plan the briefing...
Please If you don't want to post it here send me a PM
Thank's!!

Hello RealDarko,
Thanks for your comments - glad you are enjoying this campaign!
It's not very complicated how I plan a campaign. Basically I take a plane or scenario that appeals to me, and try to find a beginning and an end that makes a good story - either a particular battle or particular period for a squadron. I try to confine each campaign to one map, if possible. I tend to aim for around 15 missions for a campaign, and this number increases or decreases as I work on the campaign, and see how the "story" is going. I tend not to do long campaigns, as I suspect that the longer the campaign lasts, the less number of people get to the end.
I try to create one template for the whole campaign, which is only added to slightly as the campaign progresses, and as historically appropriate. I do this so that I can use the same template for subsequent campaigns (e.g. flying for the other side)
If you want to play some of my earlier campaigns, you can try the link below. I'd recommend "The Fighting Cocks", "Battle For Kiev" and "Hell In The Pacific: Peleliu" as perhaps the most representative (and immersive) of my work.

Excellent!
Also, is there any chance of seeing a version of Hell In The Pacific as a Japanese pilot
?

Downloading!
Is it just me being stupid, but when I unzip, one of the campaign.ini's and info.properties'
overwrites the other. Am I doing something wrong here? :?:
