If you still accept sheets, count me in, I guess?

Look good? Is there anything that conflicts with the lore?

All good. We'll be starting in twenty hours or so.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I personally love the spitfire planes. Not sure why, but I just really like them.

That's only a mild version. In some design variants, they put 5 planes on top of the TB-3, and there were plans for an 8 plane version.

Yeah, but I'm not quite sure about deploying 8 planes. Five-version worked for sure, but I've never heard of 8-version. Do you have a link for that? I'm interested.

Nevermind, I misread some information. Basically, there were 8 planes in the formation, but not all eight would be attached at the same time.

Aaaah. That is fine. But, as I understand, the whole thing about Zveno project was using TB's range of operation to deliver strike force, and then fighter's manoeuvrability to strike'em hard, and then return. So, why extra planes in formation?

Well, you'd juggle the planes around, letting each one piggyback for some time ,  so the range of Operation, while slightly reduced, was still larger than the fighters normal operational range. Meanwhile, having 2 additional fighters has the expected benefit.

Well damn, turns out I'm a lying liar that lies.

It's three am here, so I'll pick the players and write the intro turn in another ten or fifteen hours. Off to sleep for now, sorry.
