The Battle of Malta 1940-42 (IT) 1.1

THE BATTLE OF MALTA 1940-1942 (IT) 1.0

for Il2/AEP/Pf 4.03m+

A 62 mission Scripted fighter Campaign for an Italian fighter pilot based in Sicily.

This campaign is based on a lot of historical research, no real pilot would have had the opportunity to experience

all that is contained although I have constructed what I hope is a believable fiction.

Almost all the missions within this campaign are directly based upon real missions.

The variety and type of missions are varied but the focus is upon escort type missions and their evolution throughout

the period covered. There are also patrols, fighter sweeps, ground attacks, interceptions and a variety of 'specials' as the Regia Aeronautica struggle to win air superiority and prevent convoys and supplies from getting to Malta.

Convoys are central to this whole campaign so ships of all types and their attack and defence feature very heavily

throughout.

Player fly's the Fiat Cr42 'Falco', MC200 'Saetta', Fiat G50 and MC202 'Folgore'.

(and very briefly a bf109, He111 and an MC205 'Veltro' in a final 'epilogue' mission in 43.)

i) This campaign requires the Italian campaign folder and Italian speech pack. (included in the 'DGEN latest updates !' underneath this in the campaigns section of CombatAce website:-

OR

in 'the Italian campaign pack' available at Ubi Pacific fighters under user campaigns,

many thanks to Gaston and everyone else involved.

ii) This campaign was constructed using the excellent il2 MATmanager and it is recommended that people install this

utility in order to be able to choose accurate plane markings.

(the campaign should still work without it but will not look as good as intended.)

Thanks to all the skinners that created the skins contained within, I have tried my best to agnowledge their excellent

work. (see read me).

Unzip to your desktop and look at the enclosed Read Me(IT)

Hopefully there should be an Italian language version of this campaign to follow soon.

1.1 corrects some spelling and typos in the briefs.
