This thread is for posting changes to Combat Box.

First up is a new map titled Mitchell's Men.  In addition to the normal ground targets they have incorporated 3 major flights of B-25's that enter at various times to hit industrial areas.  These start in the back areas and fly at altitude in contrails.  The Germans go for these like flies to a new pile of horse shit.  Would make for a great squad escort mission.

Oh BTW, all aircraft available do NOT have any limitations to mods.  For example, the P-38 can carry 4x1000 or 2x2000.

New week, new maps! (Unrelated to previous post -- we change the maps each week, and there are 7+ in rotation). This week we're bringing back Operation Paravane to the mix. Here's the lineup:

Operation-Paravane-Sep-1944
Crossing_the_Rhine_Mar_1945
Battle-for-Kalinin-Aug-1944
Closing_of_the_Ruhr_Pocket_Apr_1945
Mitchells_Men_Mar_1945
A_Bridge_Too_Far_Sep_1944
Battle_over_Eindhoven_Mar_1945
Legend-of-Y-29-Jan-1945

We have removed Battle of the Scheldt temporarily while we make changes to the way the 262s function on the map. When we moved the 262 base to Helmond and made it attackable, it really became a case of "admin-sponsored vulching" and that's not a good thing. We think vulching is anti-fun and we don't want to encourage it. We'll put Scheldt back once we've made changes to it.
