Ok I know its historically incorrect, so sue me... ;)

 

First adjust the service end year in the dh2_data.ini file.

 

[MissionData]

NationName=RAF

ServiceStartDate=02/1916

;ServiceEndDate=06/1917

ServiceEndDate=12/1918

 

 

You might want to adjust what missions you get.

 

Then change the 1st RAF squadron so it has DH2s instead of SE5As

 

Do this by changing the AircraftType of the AirUnit26 to DH2 in the WWICAMP0_DATA.INI file

 

You might also want to change it so you dont get strike missions. here is the entry the way I have it.

 

 

[AirUnit026]

AircraftType=DH2

Squadron=1RAF

ForceID=1

Nation=RAF

DefaultTexture=RAFBrown1

StartNumber=1

BaseArea=Sainte-Menehould Aerodrome

RandomChance=100

BaseMoveChance=10

MaxAircraft=16

StartAircraft=16

MaxPilots=16

StartPilots=16

Experience=70

Morale=100

Supply=50

MissionChance[sWEEP]=90

MissionChance[CAP]=90

MissionChance[iNTERCEPT]=80

MissionChance[ESCORT]=40

MissionChance=0

MissionChance[CAS]=0

MissionChance[sEAD]=0

MissionChance[ARMED_RECON]=45

MissionChance[ANTI_SHIP]=0

MissionChance[RECON]=90

MissionChance[bALLOON_BUSTING]=35

MissionChance[bALLOON_DEFENSE]=30

UpgradeType=NEVER

 

Now your up for a challange.

 

Fighting Fokkers and Albatroses is all ok but when you get to intercept Gothas thats the tricky part. The DH2 is soooo fragile so you really have to work the Gothas carefully.
