Join the German Luftwaffe or the British RAF in Battle of Britain! __________ Creator's note:
This is a European-based sequel(?) to my previous 2 RPGs of the same name. I have drastically changed the storyies, ideas, etc, and this is the improved version. I WILL NOT be testing out ideas, so treat this seriously! Also, please enjoy.
Thanks, Maverick4 __________ British Royal Airforce (RAF) Story:
The British Warmachine is in throes after the ingloriious rout at Dunkirt. Bruised and battered, but not beaten, you prepare for your new assignment: protect Britain from the inevitable assault that will surely come from the Kraut hordes. As leaflets of Hitlers 'Appeal to Reason' rain down, you are filled with a new resolve to win, at any and all cost.
German Luftwaffe Story:
Operation: SeaLion, the plan to invade the British Isles, is now in effect. Your mission? Destroy the RAF. The German Army has already sent it realing. In the words of The Fuhrer '...selected by the fates to deal the final blow to the structure which these men (Churchhill and CO.) have already set tottering...". End. Them. Now.
Both Sides:
Your goal throughout the entire campaign will be in the role as a fighter-pilot. For the RAF, this means defending their homeland. For teh Luftwaft, this includes destroying the RAF and protecting the Bombers from attack as they progress to London and other British Cities. __________ Registration
Sign-up is limited to FOUR PEOPLE! And try to balance it out to 2 Brits and 2 Germans; more balanced=more fun. ---------- Name: (I shouldn't have to explain this, I hope) Age: (19-24) Force: (RAF or Luftwaffe) Rank: Pilot (this will increase with kills) Plane: (see below) Lvl: 1 0/20 EXP HP: 30/30 Fuel Amount: 100/100 Armor: (see fuel) Fuel: (you have 7 points to spend on armor and speed. more armor means you take less damage, but can stay up less.

RADAR: Your character can 'see' enemy planes and formations sooner.
Self-Sealing Fuel Tanks: If your fuel tanks are hight, less fuel will be lost.
Fisherman-Friend: If you go down, a friendly fisherman will be there to pick you up.
Exaust Covers: Your exaust pipes are covered, making you harder to see at night
Reflector Sight: Your guns are more accurate, due to your upgrade from the WWI-Era tube sight.
E-MARE-IH-CAN: Americans have come to help the war-effort: Your plane is repaired faster.
German Luftwaffe Perks:
Daschund-Belly: You have an extra fuel tank on your plane belly; your plane uses fuel more economically
Red-Cross Buoy: If you go down, a 'Swiss' AID buoy is always nearby.
Self-Sealing Fuel Tanks: If your fuel tanks are hit, you'll loose less fuel.
Londra: Italians have given you additional training; you do more damage.
Size DOES Matter: Luftwaffe's size is on your side: your plane is repaired faster.
Pure Race: Your eyesight is exceptionally good: your guns are more accurate. __________ A few notes:
1. There will always be one choice out of four or five in which you die or get wounded. If you happen to choose that one, don't worry, I'll give you the option to parachute out a total of 3 times. After that, it's game over. War is hell, and people die.
2. You may have noticed the Armor/Fuel tabs. These can be your best friend, or your worst enemy. More fuel means you can out run the enemy in dire situations, but more armor means you can take less damage. Play to your strengths, because the enemy plays to your weaknesses.
4. Remember that you are not limited to the choices I give you. There will almost always be an answer marked "Other," where you can do something different or even do two actions I've given you, provided they don't contradict. Surprise me with your tactical skill! If you are especially creative, you may be rewarded with a new weapon or even a perk. __________

D) Make your own option! Cooper attempts to turn the plane using the yaw, which should not have been affected by a stall out. He turns straight towards the ground, and whether or not he accelerates, gravity would do the rest. He attempts a screamingly high-speed fly-by shooting(ha) at the enemy plane, and will then pull up sharply at the end of the dive to swerve and take another shot, finishing off the opponent. He also steels his stomach in an attempt to ascertain that his lunch will remain in his stomach despite the massive G-force this will produce.

Very smart, though typically its a last resort; ussually, just pressing the starter button would give the engine enough turn (coupled with the wind racing through the engine block) to get your engine started.
(BTW, planes are front-heavy; in a stall, they would flip and be facing the ground already)
The 109e begins to seriously open up with his guns; and you har the bullets ripping up your tail (-4hp). Suddenly, you hear a TWANG; your airelon cable has been parcially severed (slower left-turns)! You begin to head towards the main group, and mash down the trigger; a 109e flys right across your tracer-path, and you watch as the bullets 'clip his wings'. His plane begins to enter into an uncontrolled spin, but the pilot bails out before his plane smacks against the waves (+10xp, Char Updated!) Your plane levels out, and your engine finnally (!) comes to life. But, the 109e is still on your six! Do you:
A) Attempt an immellman B) Climb up, and try to break away C) Fly back over the land, maby he'll leave you alone? D) Make your Own Option!

D) Make your Own Option! Flying over land makes no sense, and the other two probably wouldn't work because we've already proven that the enemy plane is more maneuverable than Cooper's in an altitude climb. That would not end well. So instead, I'll use what is my plane's disadvantage in a climb and what would be his advantage in a climb; my heavier weight, his lighter weight. I'll go into a dive and gun it straight down; he'll probably follow me. However, I can dive faster than he can thanks to my weight, so he'll start to fall behind. This will give me an opportunity to stop near the end of the dive, when he would have fallen behind the most, and turn around. Then I'll open up my guns. He will have had too much speed invested into the dive trying to catch me to stop, so I will probably destroy him. Then I'll quickly gun it to the right to avoid debris from his destroyed plane.

You circle around the airstrip a few times, and spot a small group of planes flyting towards London. You identify them as Heinkel-111Hs. THeres 3 of them, and you waggle your wingtips to show you'll be escorting them. You:
A) Fly above and behind them B) Fly dircetly infront of them C) Fly below them D) Circle around them

You perform your crazy maneuver and it works... somewhat. You 109e, to busy trying to play catch up, tryies to pull up, but its to late. He crashes into the Cliffs, leaving a long, ugly black scar against a backdrop of white (+10XP, level up!). However, the momentum from your turn has snapped the remaining tendrils of your airelon cable. Your also low on fuel, and don't have enough to get back to base. Its a good thing your near England, though. Do you:
A) Play up, play up, and play the game! (continue fighting) B) Perform an emergency landing in the English Countryside C) Ditch your plane, and bail out into the channel

Fuel was wrong, should have been 40.***
You decide to be very brave (or very stupid), and stick it out to the finish (-10 fuel). However, you have little rudder control, and have to turn using your awe. Your not heavily damaged, your just running low on fuel. So, you begin to head back towards the main cluster of planes.
As you head into the fight, a few stray shots hit you (-3HP), but you reamain largely unscathed. Its now become 3-on-3 as a Hurricane plumets out of control, and a parachute blossoms out. You see a 109e lightly smoking, and could possibly be an easy kill. Do you:
A) Chase after him B) Find some other prey C) Abandon your plane in the English Countryside

***Name your plane***
You begin to chase the Hurricane. You open up with a short burst of your guns, and watch as they go high, above his cockpit. The Hurricane attempts to evade you, and banks suddenly to the left. Your airelon cable is gone, so you have practically no turn capabilities. You then:
A) Try to follow him again B) Abandon the Hurricane, and crash land in the countryside C) Ditch your plane D) Make your own option

You use your awe, and slide your plane around. Your now facing the Dover Cliffs. You push the throttle, and begin to fly over the English Countryside. You see a small pond, and this appears to be the best bet for your ditching. You put down your landing gear, aim your plane at the pond, and bail out.
The pond's owner, a farmer, tankes you back to your base, where you meet up with the Quarter Master:
