(Fictional)
This is an CAP event only Squadron
"By Force of Arms"
"Combat Air Patrol"
The Saturday event "Combat Air Patrol" will attempt to simulate WW2 in a chronological order, starting with events in Europe and the Nordics 1940. The campaign will be constantly re-written to take advantage of new aircraft from HTC so each run through should be different.
CAP events are at 6pm EST - 11pm GMT - 12am CET in the SEA.
The CAP Campaign
HTC has laid out the plans for 5 sections of the campaign, each simulating a year in game time. Each campaign section will be 4-8 frames in length depending on the branches so the entire war could take 40 frames. Scheduling for 3 weeks on, 1 week off as a break. They will also be pausing the event for future scenarios held on Saturdays, so it's possible that the entire war could take 1 year in real time to get through.
The medals
The medal system worked out will reward pilots both for success and dedication in the CAP event. Each countries medal system is slightly different but sticks to the same general theme of 3 types of medals:
Bravery medals: Awards given for success in combat (i.e. kills)
Achievement medals: Awards given for reaching long term targets of numbers of kills, streaks without death, frames flown, etc.
Service medals: Awards given for long service as a pilot or CO and squadron unit citations.
Medals awarded are scripted, however, the CMs have the option to upgrade or downgrade an award depending on AARs of the event. For example, as a British pilot if you shot down 2 aircraft and landed safely you'd be awarded the Conspicuous Gallantry Medal, if AARs indicated that during these engagements you were outnumbered 4:1, your wingy was calling for help and you went back to save him, the medal awarded would be upgraded to a
Distinguished Flying Medal.
At present there is medal systems for the RAF, Luftwaffe, USAAF, USN, USMC, Italian Air Force, Russian Air Force and IJN. Each system differs slightly, for example the Luftwaffe system awards an Iron Cross for pretty much anything but only one of each medal can be awarded, the USAAF system includes more unit situations and medals for being best something or other.
