Note: CHECK YOUR SQUADRON. USE THE MODIFIERS FOR YOUR SQUADRON ONLY.
"NONE" = NO ATTACKERS! DO NOT ADD MODIFIERS FOR WEATHER.
NO TWIN-ENGINED fighters will attack. Change Me 110 to Me 109 and JU 88 to FW 190.
NO ME 110 WILL APPEAR. Change all to JU 88. There is a chance of meeting JU 88s with aerial bombs: If fighters appear, roll D6: on 5 and 6 JU 88s from IV/NJG 3 in Denmark will drop aerial bombs. Roll 1x LIGHT FLAK.
WHEN ME 109s APPEAR: ROLL D6 BEFORE THEIR NORMAL ATTACK: 1-4: Large flashes from the wings and bursts seen, but no other effect. 5-6: Roll again: 1-2: No effect. 3-5: Roll Heavy Flak To Hit x3 (If you are hit three times you will be out of formation for the remainder of this attack and zone/turn. If on the Bomb Run, BR Roll is -2.) 6: BIP - Roll for area normally. (SPECIAL ME 109 NOTE: IF you have been attacked by the Werfergranate 21 (W.Gr 21) you will have +1 To Hit all ME 109s in the wave attacking. They are assumed to have the launcher under the wings and are a little slower and not so maneuverable.)
